Vacuum Chroming Machine for Home Appliance Plastic Components

Overview

Model: Vacuum Chroming Machine for Home Appliance Plastic Components (Model Number: EV series) uses vacuum metallizing, also known as Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), to deposit thin metallic or ceramic films onto plastic substrates under high-vacuum conditions. The technology replaces traditional electroplating by eliminating the need for toxic chemicals and heavy metals and eliminates hazardous substances like chromium and nickel, complying with RoHS and REACH regulations. Compatible substrates include ABS, PC, ABS+PC and other engineering plastics, and the PVD coating forms a dense, adherent layer that resists scratches, abrasion and chemical degradation while withstanding temperatures up to 200°C. Coating options include metallic finishes such as chrome, gold and copper, rainbow-colored interference layers, and matte or glossy textures; thermal evaporation is used for aluminum and similar metals while magnetron sputtering is used for harder coatings like TiN or CrN. Process steps consist of ultrasonic pre-treatment with primer, base coat application using UV-curable or thermosetting resin, vacuum deposition, and application of a protective clear top coat; commercial and delivery terms include MOQ (pcs): 1, Gross Weight: 4500 (kg), OEM/ODM: Acceptable, Size: Customized or standard, Packing: Export standard packing, Payment method: T/T, Delivery Time: 60 days after confirming order, and Custom Field: We produce the PVD machine and its accessories. Designed for coating plastic home appliance components such as control panels, decorative trims, and buttons. Specific applications listed include refrigerator panels with chrome or stainless-steel finishes, washing machine controls requiring durable, touch-sensitive coatings resistant to water and detergents, air conditioner grilles needing corrosion-resistant layers for outdoor units, and small appliance trims for microwave ovens, coffee makers, and blenders.
