Product catalog summary
Introduction
Heimerle + Meule, Germany's oldest gold and silver refinery, has invested in Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating technology to enhance its service portfolio and meet the demand for environmentally safe high-tech products.

Specifications and Benefits
PVD coating technology offers a range of benefits, including:
  • Coating with precious metal alloys of nearly any composition.
  • Completely cyanide-free processing, eliminating wastewater.
  • Capability to coat non-conductive materials like ceramics, glass, plastic, and titanium alloys.
  • Coating with non-precious metals such as aluminum, titanium, and niobium.

Certifications
The company holds several certifications, including DIN EN ISO 9001, DIN EN ISO 13485, LBMA for gold, and is a conflict-free gold refiner.

Applications and Features
PVD is used for both visually appealing and technically sophisticated coatings. It allows for client-specific alloys and offers:
  • Minimal chemical and thermal stress on sensitive components.
  • Availability of various substrates, coatings, and combinations.
  • Excellent adhesion and production of ductile, even coatings up to 5 µm thick.
  • Combination with other coating methods, such as base layering for galvanization.

Technical Specifications
The high-vacuum Z1200 in-line coating system supports target dimensions of 750 × 88 mm and substrate dimensions up to 600 × 500 × 60 mm.

Quality Assurance
Heimerle + Meule ensures quality through light microscopy, adhesion testing, chemical and metallographic analysis, and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy for layer thickness and coating analysis.

Conclusion
The company offers client-specific coating solutions, leveraging its expertise in processing precious metals to create specialized coatings and combinations.
