Household appliances typically have limited lubrication systems. Oerlikon Balzers’ PVD and DLC coatings reduce friction and wear of white goods' components vulnerable to wear and corrosion, such as the ceramic discs of sanitary fittings and the cutting blades of electrical shavers, mixers and blenders, and thereby deliver long-lasting improvements in both product operation and service life.
As well as extending service life and improving reliability, Oerlikon Balzers coatings also enable component optimization leading to compacter and lighter product design.
