Diamond Like Coating Service
Dlc has some of the valuable properties of diamond including.
Diamond like coating service. Diamond like carbon dlc is a class of amorphous carbon material that displays some of the typical properties of diamond dlc is usually applied as coatings to other materials that could benefit from some of those properties. Dlc is an acronym for diamond like carbon. Vaportech vt diamond coatings are diamond like thin film coatings applied either through a physical or chemical vapor deposition process. Among pvd pacvd coating compositions and technology dlc coatings stand out as a distinctive category.
Dlc coatings can have different structures and properties that rely on the ratio of sp 3 diamond and sp 2 carbon or other fillers like hydrogen silicon. Diamond like carbon dlc coatings can be deposited by different technologies such as pvd arc pvd sputtering and pacvd processes. Diamond like carbon dlc coatings are a particular area of expertise for richter precision inc. Norseld has a world leading specialty coating capability referred to as diamond like carbon dlc.
The choice of technology and deposition parameters allow for a wide variety of performance characteristics including hydrogenated and non hydrogenated dlc coatings. The reason that there are different types is that even diamond. In addition any process parts enhanced by a wear resistant coating like composite diamond coating will produce more consistent product over an extended period of time. All seven contain significant amounts of sp 3 hybridized carbon atoms.
Dlc diamond like carbon coatings. These coatings are often referred to as dlc coatings but they can be customized in significant ways to maximize durability reduce friction or improve appearance. This contributes to a significant increase in bearing service life. Diamond like carbon dlc coatings are perfectly suited to the most extreme wear conditions and high sliding speeds even without lubrication.
By applying diamond coatings to your metal parts you can increase lifetime and minimize maintenance related downtime due to the replacement of high wear parts. We call it cooldiamond dlc our unique process gives superior quality speed and we can coat at room temperature compared to other dlc coaters who can not. They minimise frictional losses making them ideal for engine components such as fuel injection systems valve trains and pistons. Diamond like carbon coatings combine hardness with low friction thus helping to eliminate wear and increase bearing service life hardness combined with low friction bearing surfaces in bearing components can help eliminate smearing and other wear related problems.
High hardness low friction resistance to wear chemical inertness biological compatability electrical insulation optical transparency and smoothness.
