VaporTech Coating Systems

VT-1000i system

The VT-1000i is a compact higher-capacity system for medium-sized operations.

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.
