Paini colours (except for the Matt Black) undergo PVD treatment to achieve their brilliant finishes.
Components to be treated are set in a chamber which is then vacuum-sealed at pressures of 5-10mbar. Inside the chamber titanium and zirconium vapours, which forms the colour coating. Vapours spread in the chamber and condense deep in the substrates. Condensation develops in the presence of gasses (argon, nitrogen and methane) that are introduced into the chamber in a controlled way. A standard cycle includes chamber vacuum sealing and starting of the heaters. Pressure drop test. Ionic cleaning by means of ionic bombardment. Deposition of up to 99 different layers.
PVD Advantages:
PVD coating allow for products to be resistant to corrosion, impact and abrasion without the need for protective finishes. This type of OVS compared to conventional coating processes is much more environmentally friendly while allowing to have a wide range of finishes.
