Pi603 for saw bands
In order to meet the product-specific requirements, PLATIT has designed a turnkey system with a PVD coating unit operating at a high vacuum as well as a tailor-made single-chamber cleaning system. The saw bands are wound as a coil and are both cleaned and coated with the same product carrier to avoid additional effort.
The Pi603 was built in 2006 and is still working perfectly today. PLATIT’s design proved to be very user-friendly. Even customers who are not experienced with such technologies can operate this unit with ease. Pursuant to the open-source principle, PLATIT has transferred its knowledge to the customers so that they can benefit from the advantages of LARC® cathodes and flexibly combine as well as develop their own coatings.
