PVD Coating process

PVD is short for Physical Vapor Deposition . PVD technology arises in the late 70s of 20th century. It stands for physical vapour deposition; one of the important new technology for thin film coating i.e., Material Science, Nano-Technology, Surface Engineering etc.
There are various PVD coating systems and normally the coating is done in high vacuum equipments. PVD can coat many kinds of Thin Film coatings with different properties to meet the varied requirement.
At present many PVD systems are used in the decorative field, computer industry, electronics and as hard coating for tools and dies. For films made by PVD have advantages of high hardness, low friction coefficient, good wear resistance and chemical stability and so on.
