PVD Coating

Coating Services

ACT is known for providing premium surfacing coating services that include Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD). PVD uses lower temperatures for the application process that helps to potentially avoid distorting the integrity of the tool. ACT uses state-of-the-art control equipment and testing to provide a flawless finished product.

How it works: PVD is a process where the material is vaporized at a high temperature in a vacuum. When the vapor is added to the surface, it will provide thin solid layers of pure coating to deliver a harder surface to the component. The coating process is environmentally friendly, meets FDA requirements, and is non-toxic.

This coating offers a newer and cleaner alternative than traditional coatings. PVD coating is used in multiple applications in a variety of industries that include:

Aerospace
Automobile
Diesel
Marine
Medical and dental

Military
Nuclear
Sports
Tools
Weaponry

Coating Advantages

The uniform Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating provides a tough hard finish that can be applied to a variety of materials including molds and tools made from metal and plastics.

Some of the benefits of applying this coating include:

Resistance to high temperatures
Improved surface’s strength and durability
Extended lifespan/longevity of components
Reduced level of maintenance required
Improved overall quality of the parts or equipment

Excellent abrasion resistance
Higher speeds and feeds
Improved fuel efficiency e.g. gears and engine parts
Reduced wear, including high corrosion protection such as saltwater corrosion

Our PVD coating can enhance the wear and protection of your components by making it resistant to cracking, chipping, and corrosion. PVD can provide increased performance by improving the surface quality of your products that helps to create a smoother surface that reduces friction. Productivity is increased when your components run more efficiently through the use of our coatings (Ex: tools can run at higher speeds and feeds.). The benefit of reduced wear will also contribute to the increased lifespan of your component. Overall, this makes PVD a great choice as a coating application.

There are a variety of finishes available that can be color-matched to other materials. ACT carries a wide spectrum of colors for your needs.
