Project Summary
Co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund under the PHOENIX Program, the HARD-TOOLS project aimed to develop high-hardness, low-friction functional coatings for industrial applications.
ROVISOPTICS SRL Contributions:
Acted as a technological partner specializing in thin-film deposition and surface engineering.
Developed and optimized multilayer nanostructured coatings (AlTiCrN₃ + CrCN) with enhanced durability and low friction.
Utilized advanced PVD, DC Magnetron Sputtering, and HiPIMS technologies for film fabrication.
Upgraded and operated vacuum deposition systems:
LEYBOLD Z-550-S
BALZERS BAS-450-PM
VUP-DC
Conducted material characterization and performance testing of the deposited coatings.
Collaborated with INCDIE ICPE-CA for structural, mechanical, and tribological analyses.
Achieved improved coating adhesion, corrosion resistance, and wear protection for industrial tools.
Outcome:
Creation of validated experimental coating models.
Strengthened ROVISOPTICS’ expertise in nanostructured materials and vacuum deposition technologies.
Results disseminated through a scientific publication and patent application.
