Sputtek - Equipment

The coating process is carried on fully automated deposition systems
that together with the software controlling system has been
manufactured following our own design.

We designed 2 types of PVD machines, utilising PECAP™ technology, 1 m3 and 1.5 m3 equipped with cathodic arc circular sources. Also we are building PVD machines equipped with planar cathodic arc sources or sputtering sources or their combinations.

Sputtek - Technology

At the core of our achievements stands our scientists' extensive R&D experience. Through their efforts a proprietary technology Plasma Enhanced Cathodic Arc Process (PECAP™) has been developed which combines applied plasma-physics and metallurgy at highest level.

The uniqueness of our process resides on the usage of several mechanisms for additional ionisation and concentration of the plasma that results in deposition dense coatings with minimal internal stresses in the balance equilibrium conditions.
