For over twenty years, Wirco Inc. and our alloy fabrication division, Hyper Alloys have produced retorts and alloy support components for thin-film CVD and PVD coating systems.
We are properly equipped to manufacture retort shells for tabletop and much larger high-volume production systems. Wirco produces retorts in many different stainless steel grades for use in systems that run up to 1,200°C.
Fixturing plays a key role in the part quality of CVD/PVD coating systems. The engineering team here at Wirco can partner with your R&D or press engineering department to determine the best part arrangement to achieve the coating results you require.
The benefits our CVD and PVD products can bring to your business are listed below:
Enhanced Process Control and Efficiency: In CVD and PVD, where thin film deposition and surface treatments are essential, shells, muffles, and retorts ensure optimal process control. These components regulate the environment inside deposition chambers, safeguarding against contamination and providing precise thermal management. Whether you’re achieving ultra-thin layers for semiconductors or durable coatings for aerospace components, these elements are crucial for maintaining consistent quality and performance.
Tailored to Extreme Conditions: CVD and PVD technologies often require materials that can endure high-temperature processes, aggressive chemicals, and vacuum or low-pressure environments. Our shells, muffles, and retorts are made from high-performance materials such as stainless steel, and high-purity alloys, which are chosen for their ability to withstand harsh conditions while offering long-term durability and minimal contamination.
Improved Product Quality: Wirco's CVD and PVD products are guaranteed leak-free, expertly welded, precision machined, and rigorously tested. These components play a direct role in maintaining the integrity of the coating process. Ensuring consistent environmental conditions, minimizing chemical exposure, and reducing particulate contamination, shells, muffles, and retorts helps to achieve high-quality, defect-free coatings. The result? Cutting-edge products with superior performance.
