Components
Oerlikon Balzers coatings and heat treatments for engineered components in the automotive industry, reduce fuel consumption, improve wear resistance and allow compacter design.
PVD coating solutions for automotive components:
- enable the realization of innovative power-train concepts that provide fuel and lubricant savings and reduce pollutant emissions;
- improve the wear resistance and service life of components, thereby lengthening service intervals and reducing the need for spare parts;
- permit compacter design and the use of lighter materials that reduce overall weight;
- reduce friction losses in the engine and so increase overall drive train efficiency.
Please contact us to find the optimum PVD coating solution for your individual requirements.
