RTSP950-DLC PVD Sputtering Thin Film Coating Machine

In the world of high-performance manufacturing and surface engineering, precision isn’t just an advantage—it’s a requirement. From the intricate components of aerospace engines to the delicate finishes on luxury watches, the quality of a thin film coating can define product longevity, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. At the heart of this transformative process lies advanced Vacuum Deposition Equipment, a technology that enables industries to engineer surfaces with exceptional properties. Leading this innovation is Royal Technology with its flagship model: the RTSP950-DLC PVD Sputtering Thin Film Coating Machine.

What is Vacuum Deposition?

Vacuum deposition refers to a family of processes used to deposit layers of material at the atomic or molecular level onto a substrate, all within a controlled vacuum environment. This method ensures coatings are pure, uniform, and strongly adherent. Among these techniques, Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) stands out for its ability to produce extremely hard, wear-resistant, and decorative coatings. When combined with Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD), the result is a hybrid system capable of meeting the most demanding application standards across diverse sectors.

Introducing the RTSP950-DLC: A Hybrid Coating Powerhouse

The Royal RTSP950-DLC is not just a coater; it’s a comprehensive solution designed for excellence. Engineered with a robust stainless steel (S304) vacuum chamber measuring Φ950*1350 mm, this system features a unique octahedral design with dual doors for efficient loading and operation. Its core strength lies in the seamless integration of magnetron sputtering PVD and ion source-assisted PECVD technologies. This hybrid approach allows users to deposit high-quality DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) films, known for their exceptional hardness, low friction coefficient, and superior durability.

Key Features and Technological Superiority
  • Dual-Process Flexibility: By combining balanced/unbalanced magnetron sputtering cathodes with linear ion sources, the RTSP950-DLC performs both metallic/ceramic PVD coatings and hydrocarbon-based PECVD DLC coatings. This versatility is crucial for applications requiring both decorative beauty and extreme functional performance.
  • High-Capacity Production: The system is equipped with a 6 (or 8) satellite rotating rack and fixture system, capable of handling loads up to 400 kg. With a coating area of Ø800 mm * 550 mm H and uniformity within ±10-15%, it ensures consistent, high-yield production runs.
  • Precision Control & Reliability: Operation is managed via a PLC + Touchscreen interface, supporting manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic modes. The pumping system, featuring renowned brands like Leybold (rotary vane pump, roots pump, cryo-pump, and magnetic levitation molecular pumps), guarantees fast pump-down and stable, high-vacuum conditions essential for quality film growth.
  • Enhanced Process Capabilities: With 20 kW heating (up to 400°C), multiple gas channels controlled by MKS mass flow controllers, and a 24 kW bias power supply, the system offers precise control over film stress, adhesion, and microstructure. The integrated ion sources are key for pre-treatment plasma cleaning and assisting deposition, ensuring outstanding coating adhesion.
  • Built for Safety and Stability: Multiple safety interlock systems protect both operators and equipment, while an industrial chiller ensures consistent thermal management during extended operation.
Wide-Ranging Applications Across Industries
  • Decorative Finishes: Create vibrant, scratch-resistant colors on jewelry, watch components, eyewear, luxury accessories, and architectural hardware.
  • Tooling & Components: Dramatically extend the service life of cutting tools, molds, dies, and various mechanical parts by applying ultra-hard, lubricious DLC and nitride coatings.
  • Automotive & Aerospace: Coat engine components, bearings, and transmission parts to reduce friction, improve fuel efficiency, and resist wear and corrosion.
  • Medical Technology: Deposit biocompatible coatings on surgical instruments, implants, and devices to enhance performance and patient safety.
  • Optics & Electronics: Fabricate high-performance optical films for lenses and mirrors, or functional layers for sensors, MEMS devices, and electronic components.
  • Packaging & Barrier Films: Produce high-barrier layers on packaging materials to extend shelf life and protect contents.
