DLC Coatings

The magnetron sputtering systems of eifeler-Vacotec are designed for depositing adhesion-secure and slide-favorable coatings on the basis of MoS2 or DLC.

These coatings are mostly applied for moving parts or tools in order to improve the slide characteristics on the surface. Friction coefficients < 0.1 in contact with steel are easily achieved.

The PVD sputter technology is employed with the DLC layer SUCASLIDE®, CARBON-X® and the solid lubricant layer MoST. The coating is applied here at approx. 200° centigrade.
