xPro-L4 Vacuum Hard Coating System

Product Overview
The xPro-L4 is the most advanced type of industrial large size vacuum coating system, which includes the newly developed PDA*-technology. It is specifically designed for the deposition of high performance metallurgical coatings,
such as AlCrSiN, AlTiSiN, AlCrN, AlTiN, CrN, TiC, N, TiN and many others. Such coatings are evaporated by arc onto a variety of cutting tools, dies and moulds, components and consumer products for wear, erosion and corrosion protection as well as tribological purposes.
The xPro-L4 is also in a "pulsed" high power as xPro-L4H version available(HiParc**), where the technology and power supply package enables faster deposition rates,shorter cycle times and significantly improved target utilisation.
The xPro-L4 is characterized by:
- • Robust system designed for the rigorous production, environment using sophisticated vacuum coating technologies.
- • Rugged construction marked by an extremely advanced highly refined design.
- • Extreme reliability based on intelligent straightforward design and construction.
- • The broadest spectrum of coatings and coating technology available in a single system at the lowest possible cost.
- • Fully automatic, computer controlled, closed loop process control providing process repeatability, reliability and a user-friendly environment.
- • The coating industry's broadest capabilities in the smallest footprint
