VT-1500i™: High-Capacity Cathodic Arc System with Optional Magnetron Sputtering
The VT-1500i™ is our mid-size VT-Series™ PVD & DLC coating system. Two optional magnetron sputtering sources deliver high-performance coatings.
The VT-1500i™ PVD & DLC coating system with optional magnetron sputtering deposits a broad range of bright and dark metallic colors as well as our diamond-like carbon (DLC) and functional, highly wear-resistant coatings.
The VT-1500i PVD system provides high throughput but in a very compact footprint. This unique system includes both cathodic arc and optional magnetron sputtering technologies in the same machine – up to 3 PVD sources. With the ability to coat parts up to 100 cm long and 10 high-capacity racks, the VT-1500i™ is a high volume, flexible, price-competitive coating system for manufacturers and coating service providers.
