Research and development

 

The robust resources provided by our know-how base and expert networks in vacuum coating enables us to offer research and development solutions for a wide range of competitive functional and exotic coating processes and materials. We undertake exclusive development projects on our in-house platforms which offer customers alternatives as well as efficient economic facilities.

Improving thin films

 

We provide mainstream thin film analysis based on mechanical and optical methods for quality analysis and improvement assessments. Maintaining specified thin film properties during production is important to our customers and their end users.




Consulting

 

We offer fabricators a specialist support service to increase productivity within their existing production equipment. We propose improvements to increase yields and offer positive cost-of-ownership reduction measures.

Coating Technology

 

We design and construct specific platforms and advanced coating tools for specified surface processes offering magnetron sputtering and plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD). Our technology is provided as original systems as well as implementing upgrades for new processes in existing systems.
