New, highly efficient coating processes, such as nanotechnology, use vacuum to deposit the active layers. From functional architectural glass (low-emission, self-cleaning), laminated plastic film with infrared-protection and metal-coated foil, to artificial diamond layers (DLC), it is impossible to imagine everyday life without this technology. Sterling SIHI has developed a dry running vacuum pump that fulfils the needs of this fast-growing market.
Typical applications in Thin Film Coating:
- Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD)
- Decorative Coating
- Large Area Coating
- Optical Coating
- Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD)
- Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour deposition (PE CVD)
- TFT Displays
- WEB Coating
- Wear Coating
