This black CM03 coating has been specially developed for the internal moving parts of watches that require a high resistance (date discs, barrel covers, etc.)
PHYSICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION (PVD) – PROCEDURE
PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is a metal deposition coating process that allows thin films of material to be deposited under vacuum using vapor.
For PVD coating the deposition temperature is usually between 80 and 150°C.
The deposit thickness is 2 +/-0.5 (micron)
HV 0.05 hardness is between 800 and 1000
Conforms to REACH and RoHS standards
Applications
Black CM03 colorized coatings
- Date discs
- Barrel covers
- Etc
The advantages
- Excellent quality for money
- Excellent results in watchmaking tests (climatic resistance, UV, etc.)
- Gloss, satin or matt black color depending on the substrate
- Black PVD can be deposited on all substrates (copper alloys, titanium, gold, steel and stainless steel, plastics)
- Clean deposit
- Good compromise between ductility and hardness
- Homogeneity and reproductivity of the color
- Homogeneity and reproductivity of thickness
- Resistance against climate and UV
- Low temperature procedure
- Respect of terminals
- A black PVD treated part can be detreated and retreated
