SPECIFICATION 
THIN FILM HARD COATING SYSTEM 
MODEL SP-1600

Universal deposition system for the application of all commercially available thin film hard coatings on a large variety of tools and mechanism parts, from very large heavy-duty stamping, die-casting and plastics tools, to' cutting tools and inserts. Designed and built for continuous 3 shifts operation, with minimal loading and maintenance downtime. Incorporates all coating service experience accumulated by Sputtek over the years, delivering unequaled performance in the most demanding applications. Will satisfy the largest range of customers' applications and requirements, while generating solid returns. Sputtek supports the system with coating technology licensing, deposition materials, spare parts, maintenance, technical support for deposition and applications and addition of new coatings as they become available.
