The development of the aerospace industry is marked by ever shorter development and manufacturing cycles, the use of light alloys, fibre composites and other exotic materials, by enormous quality and safety demands and increasing environmental protection requirements. Hard PVD coatings make a significant contribution to mastering all these demands.
BALINIT® coatings have long been approved in the aerospace industry and are applied in many domains. These thin coatings developed by Oerlikon Balzers Coating are characterised by high hardness and decisively reduce friction and wear. Depending on the application, the surface treatment improves the service life, productivity and quality of tools and components.
For every component to be manufactured, the aircraft industry defines very specific conditions that are to be fulfilled:
| • |
short planning and development times |
| • |
fast delivery
|
| • |
optimum price/performance ratio |
| • |
environmentally unproblematic production and operation |
| • |
zero-defect quality |
All these elements require continuous further development in the design and manufacture of components and in the design of production processes. This is where Oerlikon Balzers Coating can help.
There are many good reasons to partner with Oerlikon Balzers Coating and to use BALINIT® hard coatings on your tools and components.
