EPVD Coating Technology
Our proprietary Electro-magnetically enhanced Physical Vapor Deposition technology replaces hazardous chrome plating in critical applications. This patented process deposits high-performance alloys on internal surfaces of cylindrical components, improving wear resistance and thermal stability. The environmentally friendly solution reduces operational costs while extending equipment lifespan across multiple industries.
Chrome Elimination Solutions
We provide sustainable alternatives to hexavalent chromium through our EPVD technology. Our solutions address defense industry requirements for safer gun barrel coatings while maintaining critical performance metrics. The process eliminates carcinogenic exposure risks while improving component durability and maintenance intervals for military and industrial applications.
Aerospace Coating Applications
Our aerospace-specific coatings enhance landing gear and structural components' performance in extreme conditions. The technology reduces weight while maintaining strength, improving aircraft efficiency and operational costs. We collaborate with OEMs to develop customized solutions that meet stringent aviation safety and environmental regulations for military aircraft systems.
Defense Industry Coatings
We deliver specialized coating solutions for small, medium, and large caliber weapon systems through our EPVD technology. Our defense applications improve component longevity and accuracy while reducing maintenance requirements. The process has been validated through multiple contracts with global defense manufacturers and government agencies for critical military applications.
Petrochemical Coating Solutions
Our high-temperature coatings protect petrochemical equipment from extreme thermal and chemical stress. The CoatAlloy system prevents coking in ethylene furnaces while maintaining structural integrity at temperatures exceeding 1200C. These solutions increase production efficiency and reduce maintenance costs for major petrochemical operators worldwide.
