Overview
PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is a high-tech vacuum coating process that produces a brilliant decorative and functional finish. It is widely used to enhance the surface properties of precision components, providing extreme hardness and superior resistance to wear, scratches, and corrosion.
Key Benefits of PVD Coating
- Extreme Durability: Significantly increases surface hardness (up to 2000-3000 Hv), making parts highly resistant to scratches.
- Superior Aesthetics: Provides a premium metallic look with consistent color quality and a high-end feel.
- Corrosion Resistance: Protects parts from oxidation, sweat, and chemical exposure, ensuring long-lasting performance.
- Eco-Friendly Process: A clean, dry vacuum process that is more environmentally friendly than traditional electroplating.
- Precision Maintenance: The coating is extremely thin (typically 0.5 to 2 microns), preserving the tight tolerances of your CNC or MIM parts.
Available Colors & Finishes
We offer a wide spectrum of decorative PVD colors to meet your design needs:
Materials Suitable for PVD
- Stainless Steel: 304, 316L, 17-4PH (Best results).
- Titanium Alloys: Grade 2, Grade 5.
- Chrome-plated Metals: Brass or Zinc alloys with a chrome base.
- Tool Steels: For industrial wear resistance.
Applications
- Consumer Electronics: Smartphone frames, buttons, wearable device housings.
- Medical Devices: Surgical tools (for color coding and wear resistance).
- Luxury Goods: Watch cases, jewelry, high-end eyewear.
- Hardware: Premium door handles, bathroom fixtures, and professional tools.
Quality Assurance
Our PVD facility ensures strict color matching and uniform coating thickness across every batch. We perform rigorous adhesion and hardness tests to guarantee that the finish will not chip, peel, or fade over time.
