PVD Coating by HIPIMS
We have comprehensive expertise in HIPIMS pretreatment and coating technology
International training school on HIPIMS a great success!
A training school on HIPIMS was organised by Professor Arutiun Ehiasarian to address the need for High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) fundamentals and research findings to reach a wider audience
StirCoat Announcement
Sheffield Hallam University is pleased to announce that, in partnership with TWI (formerly The Welding Institute) and Ionbond UK Ltd, it has won a collaborative research project supported by Innovative UK to developer coatings for friction stir welding (FSW) tools.
Plasma Investigations of the HIPIMS Discharge Industrial funding
High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) has been developed on rotating PVD magnetron sources for uniform deposition on 200mm single wafer tools for barrier and seed layer deposition in through silicon vias (TSV)
INNOVATIAL - Innovative processes and materials to synthesise knowledge-based ultra performance nanostructured PVD thin films on gamma Titanium Aluminides
This 'Innovatial' project focuses on the development of protective coatings for a new generation of lightweight titanium gamma aluminide materials that are in high demand in modern aircraft and cars
Nanocomposite Films
Ti-Al-Si-N and Cr-Al-Si-N are high-temperature resistant coatings for cutting tool applications, created in collaboration with University of Freiberg, Germany
