Technology
The results of long-standing coating and technology development, as well as a continuous communication exchange with users, are integrated into the development of this system generation.
By means of eifeler-PVD technology, the following layers can be deposited reliably and in high quality on the systems:
Technique
Powerful vacuum pumps and strong radiation heaters guarantee a rapid conditioning of the tools and therefore short cycle times. The compact housing enables easy access to all important components. An optional plasma source for plasma nitriding or also the equipment with SPCS for the manufacture of “ultrafine” layers are extension possibilities for the alpha900P.
Batching system
The easy-to-use batching system allows the operator an optimal and reliable operating mode. voestalpine eifeler Vacotec offers a comprehensive program of batching means which can be used in all machines. Regardless of whether it involves cover sleeves for shaft tools, plug holders or rotation cups: We have a catalogue which is based on more than 25 years of experience in job coating.
Maintenance and service
The large chamber door offers optimum access for cleaning, loading and maintenance. Access to the data during the entire process is possible, as is the remote control for the online maintenance.
