Our Advanced PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) Vacuum Coating Machine is purpose-built for coating automotive molds — including stamping dies, injection molds, forging dies, and die-casting molds.
Using state-of-the-art arc evaporation or magnetron sputtering technology (customizable), this system applies ultra-hard, low-friction, and heat-resistant ceramic coatings such as TiN, CrN, AlCrN, TiAlN, and DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon). The result? Extended mold life, reduced downtime, lower scrap rates, and superior surface finish for automotive parts.
Features
1. Superior Coating Adhesion
Plasma cleaning & bias voltage control ensure atomic-level bonding — no peeling or chipping under high mechanical impact.
2. Uniform Nano-Layer Deposition
Rotating planetary fixture + multi-arc cathodes guarantee even coating thickness (±5%) on complex 3D mold surfaces, including deep cavities, ribs, and sharp corners.
3. Fast Cycle Time
High-deposition-rate design reduces process time to 2–6 hours per batch, increasing your throughput.
4. Eco-Friendly & Clean Process
Fully enclosed vacuum chamber with dry pumping option. No hazardous wastewater, sludge, or gas emissions — meets international environmental standards.
5. Smart PLC Control
Fully automated recipe management with real-time monitoring (pressure, temperature, arc current, gas flow). One-button operation reduces human error.
6. Modular & Expandable
Optional: ion source for enhanced densification, anode layer source for DLC coating, or hybrid sputtering + arc configuration.
Applications
-
Stamping dies (body panels, chassis parts) → CrN or TiAlN coating reduces galling & pickup.
-
Injection molds (bumpers, dashboards, lights) → DLC coating eliminates release agent & improves flow.
-
Die-casting molds (engine blocks, transmission housings) → AlCrN coating withstands thermal shock & aluminum erosion.
-
Forging dies (connecting rods, gears) → TiAlN / AlTiN coating prevents oxidation at high temperature.
Benefits to use this kind of PVD machine
✅ Reduce mold replacement cost – Coat a new mold once, extend life 3–10 times.
✅ Decrease machine downtime – Less frequent disassembly, cleaning, and re-polishing.
✅ Improve part quality – Consistent surface finish, fewer defects, less secondary trimming.
✅ Lower energy & chemical use – No wet plating or hazardous waste treatment.
