heat sensitive materials,” said Marko Mylläri, Picodeon vice presi- dent, sales and business development. “It is currently very diffi cult to achieve these results using physical vapor deposition [PVD], sputter- ing or chemical vapor deposition [CVD] surface coating technologies.” Applications include sensors, optical devices, lithium-ion batter- ies and PLD coatings such as complex oxides used in superconduc- tors. The company’s recently-developed Coldab Series4 equipment has built-in online plasma monitoring and laser power measurement that enable very precise management of coating process param- eters, as well as PC-controlled automation that records the actions of the coating process. The metrics provided by these systems mean that the coating process, and especially the thin-fi lm quality, can be controlled with great accuracy to achieve coating characteristics within highly targeted parameters.
The Coldab Series4 pulsed laser deposition system from Picodeon Ltd. has built-in online plasma monitor- ing and laser power measurement, enabling very precise management of coating process parameters.
Production tests showed that the system could improve the porosity of a 3-µm Al2

is the newest addition to Greenleaf Corporation’s world-
class line of ceramic insert cutting tools. SIALOX™ is made from a SiAlON substrate with a proprietary coating and exhibits excellent thermal shock resistance making it ideal for use in interrupted cuts, scale and milling.
Characteristics of SIALOX™ include high wear resistance, fracture toughness, corrosion resistance, low thermal expansion and oxidation resistance. This results in a ceramic cutting tool that can perform in a variety of materials and take the abuse related to machining rough forgings and castings of high-strength alloy materials.
Greenleaf Corporation is ISO 9001 Certified.
