摘要： Existing devices for vacuum coating substrates having different shapes, either in continuous or hatch facilities, are equipped in such a way that several coatings are applied after a coating process. The slide bearings are to be coated with several coats and the coating materials used and the conditions related thereto require the use of several coating techniques. This relates inter alia to conveyance parameters. Existing facilities fail to meet these requirements. According to the invention, such a device comprises several aligned processing chambers. Slide bearings which are held together by positive and non-positive fit in tempered carrier bodies are displaced through said chambers comprising pretreatment, atomization and evaporation chambers using a conveyance system adapted to this process. A tempering device for the carrier bodies is connected upstream from the coating track. Corresponding inlet and outlet channels enable air-to-air conveyance.

摘要： Device for the vacuum coating of mass produced products. By means of the ice small parts, such as screws and bolts, as mass produced products are highly productively coated by vacuum deposition or sputtering, also under plasma action. In a container is located a drum rotatable at high speed about its horizontal axis and in which the parts to be coated are fixed to the inner wall by centrifugal force. The surface of the inner wall is geometrically constructed such that the parts to be coated are reliably held and moved with it. The coating devices are located in the drum. A stripping device, whose spacing with respect to the inner wall is adjustable at programmable time intervals, is located in the drum and has an abutment surface directed opposite to the rotation direction.

摘要： A process an device for ion-supported vacuum coating. The process and the affiliated device is intended to permit the high-rate ating of large-surfaced, electrically conductive and electrically insulating substrates with electrically insulating and electrically conductive coatings with relatively low expenditure. The substrates are predominantly band-shaped, in particular plastic sheets with widths of over a meter. According to the invention, in an intrinsically known device for vacuum coating, alternating negative and positive voltage pulses are applied to the electrically conductive substrate or in electrically insulating substrates, to an electrode disposed directly behind them, e.g. the cooling roller, relative to the plasma or to an electrode that is disposed almost at plasma potential. The form, the voltage, and the duration of the pulses are adapted to the coating task and the material. The process is used particularly for depositing abrasion protection, corrosion protection, and barrier coatings. The user is the packaging industry, among others.

摘要： The present invention describes a coated cutting tool for metal machining. The coating is formed by one or more layers of refractory compounds of which at least one layer of fine-grained, crystalline &ggr;-phase alumina, Al2O3, with a grainsize less than 0.1 &mgr;m. The Al2O3 layer is deposited with a bipolar pulsed DMS technique (Dual Magnetron Sputtering) at substrate temperatures in the range 450° C. to 700° C. preferably 550° C. to 650° C., depending on the particular material of the tool body to be coated. Identification of the &ggr;-phase alumina is made by X-ray diffraction. Reflexes from the (400) and (440) planes occurring at the 2&thgr;0- angles 45.8 and 66.8 degrees when using CuK&agr; radiation identify the &ggr;-phase Al2O3. The alumina layer is also very strongly textured in the [440]-direction. The Al2O3 layer is virtually free of cracks and halogen impurities. Furthermore, the Al2O3 layer gives the cutting edge of the tool an extremely smooth surface finish.
