GLITTERING SURFACES...
KOLZER’s plant and metallization processes improve the quality and beauty of materials 

...the future is of HiTech biocompatible finishings



THE PROJECT

In many areas of application, vacuum coating technologies continue to replace traditional methods such as chrome
electroplating. The flexibility of this technique enables all types of materials, without distinction of shape, structure and size to be coated. This process gives technical as well as ornamental objects a very shiny, reflecting, metallic look which can be in different colours. In addition to obtaining high surface resistance products gain a decorative look lasting in time.
  The main existing applications for metallization are as follows:
  • headlights for vehicles and parabolas for reflectors in general
  • accessories for windows and door frames
  • car rims in alloy
  • EMI/RFI masks
  • lifestyle products
  • ornamental and decorative articles
  • car interiours and exteriours
  • toy parts
  • fashion and costume jewellery accessories
  • christmas tree decorations, buttons, frames, push buttons, handles, plates
  • various accessories such as knobs, moulding, dashboards, doorhandles
    (only to mention a few…)

Be successful, take advantage of our fifty years of experience in system supplies

Quick and Clean


THE CONCEPT

KOLZER metallization equipments are available in both horizontal and vertical versions: manufactured using the best materials and components available on the world market, both have robust stainless steel process chambers which come in different sizes.

Characteristics and advantages:

  • Low temperature ecological process
  • Vacuum pump system efficiency and high productivity
  • Simple visual interface for the operator
  • Automated work cycle
  • Process software with more than 50 years of database to pilot the completion of the operation according to the application in use.

The loading system:

The materials to be coated are fixed onto piece holders also called ”satellites”, in turn ,these are fixed onto the loading/unloading system, also called “planetary system”.

During the coating process, the satellites rotate around the source of evaporation and on their own axis, to “metallize” even complex surfaces
uniformly; the vacuum ensures the ideal conditions needed for a perfectly uniform and compact coating.

The operative phase:

  • The pieces are fixed onto the satellites, which in turn are fixed onto the loading system.
  • After closure of the coating chamber
    the automatic cycle starts.
  • The metallization process starts when the vacuum reaches the optimal value.
  • At the end of the process the system
    brings back atmospheric pressure to the chamber.
  • The plant is ready to metallize the next load, already set up on the second loading system.
