VT-3000i™ System: Highest-Capacity Cathodic Arc Coating Machine
The VT-3000i™ system is our largest PVD and PECVD/DLC coating system delivering our largest chamber and high throughput for large operations.
The VT-3000i PVD coating machine is a large PVD and DLC/PECVD coating system for high throughput or larger parts up to 122 cm (48 in).
Our unique centrally mounted cathodic arc deposition source ensures you get consistency and maximum control over coating uniformity and properties. Lower temperatures enable you to coat various materials such as steel, brass, zinc, or prepared plastic, giving products made of multiple materials a common finish and appearance. Additionally, VaporTech will optimize coatings to meet your specifications for color or function.
