Surface Technology and Functional Coatings

There is an increasing demand in nearly all advanced technical fields for extending lifetime and reducing failures of high performance components taking into account cost consciousness and high quality standards. Therefore technically reproducible and economically reasonable surface treatment processes are required.

Since all technical components fulfil a specific function, protective coatings are also called 'Functional Coatings'.These coatings consist of metallic or ceramic materials or a combination of both.

There is a broad application range of specific surface treating processes like Plasmanitriding and - carbonitriding, Physical and Chemical Vapour Deposition (PVD, CVD), Thermal Spraying and special surface treatment processes including DLC superhard coatings, sliding film technology and nano structured coatings, proofing that functional coatings are well established and steady process improvements opens high future application potential.

This Seminar gives an overview of the state of the art on surface treatment processes to reduce wear, friction and corrosion. The main focus is on practical applications. Quality consistency and quality control also will be part of various presentations.

Many examples of coated standard, safety and high performance components used for different applications in Automotive, Machinery, Tool Manufacturing, Aero, Chemical, Power Generation and other industries clearly demonstrate the importance and necessity of surface protection for improving abrasion and corrosion properties. The presentations, given by experts from industry and Research Institutes are especially relevant for engineers, technicians, and executives involved in product development, and engineering, production, product and quality management and technical purchasing.

Welcome to the world of surface engineering!

Professional management of the seminar is provided by Dr. rer.nat. Peter Wellner, Sulzer AG (Switzerland).

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
