Hello, We have a sever adhesion problem with the deposition of 0.5um Al film on stainless steel ferule by E gun. Is there any way to increase the adhesion?
Dear all, I tried to deposit 100nm SiO2 film using e-beam PVD. The source material is 1-3mm pieces of chunks in a 25mm-diameter crucible. I met some problems
Generally mold releasing spray type or dip type carbon coatings are used for copper dies. These are cumbersome and limit productivity as well as the die life.
Hello there I am looking for a second hand arc coating machine which can coat inside ID of the Al extrusion die. Any reference for research paper will be
i want to know if anybody saw wear mechanims changes on this kind of coating, because the papers show always a one stady stage, then i tested with a pin on
