Many products on the market are coated with a thick layer of friction, some of which change their surface functionality, and some of which change their surface colors. Among these products, ion pvd coating machine technology must be used to coat the surface of their products. What is the current status and trend of ion pvd coating machine?

1. The research and development of basic technology is weak, and the R&D investment of domestic ion pvd coating machine enterprises is insufficient compared with that of foreign counterparts. Inadequate investment in R&D of enterprises leads to weak basic technology research and development, lack of scientific research personnel, and insufficient basic education and training for relevant technicians and workers in domestic vacuum ion plating enterprises. The shortage of professional technicians and skilled workers has become an important factor restricting the further development of the industry.

2. The pressure on human cost is high. Although the multi arc ion coating machine industry is a manufacturing industry, it has a high demand for technology development and innovation. Human capital has a profound impact on the operation and development of multi arc ion coating machine enterprises. With the rapid rise of urban living cost, the average social wage is increasing year by year, and the salary of middle and high-end talents with rich business experience and professional quality is on the rise, leading to the risk that enterprises in the industry will face the rise of human cost and the decline of profit level in the future.

3. The impact risk of foreign-funded enterprises. At present, China's multi arc ion coating machine enterprises cannot compete with foreign products in high-end product series and are not well known internationally. The domestic manufacturers of multi arc ion plating machines mainly consider the domestic middle and low-end markets, and adopt the low price strategy of sacrificing the performance and reliability of equipment to win the market. The production and operation also lack the ability to develop equipment and the medium and long-term plan to put technology research and development into practice. In the next five years, with the continuous entry of international manufacturers, the integration trend of the domestic multi arc ion coating machine industry is bound to intensify, and the industry competition will become increasingly fierce. The survival of enterprises will be challenged from various aspects.

4. Limitations of the development of basic materials science. Materials are the foundation and precursor of modern high and new technologies and industries, and the prerequisite for breakthroughs in high and new technologies. When vacuum ion plating equipment is working, the temperature is often high, even reaching 350 to 500 degrees Celsius. The equipment manufacturing materials are required to have high temperature resistance and high strength. In addition, the performance of the coating will directly affect the demand for coating, which also requires continuous innovation in materials science. Compared with developed countries, China's basic materials science started late. Although in recent years, with the support of the country's vigorous development, China has made many breakthroughs and achieved many technological breakthroughs, there is still a gap between China and developed countries. The limitations of basic industry development will limit the development of vacuum ion plating industry to a certain extent.

5. Most of the multi arc ion coating machine enterprises in China are medium-sized enterprises, nearly 50% of which are large-scale enterprises, while the number of large-scale enterprises is small. Most enterprises are still in the stage of rapid development, so the market concentration is low. Major equipment manufacturers in the industry have advantageous products, such as ProPower series ion coating machine of Beijing Danpu Surface Technology Co., Ltd., SP series vacuum coating mass production solution of Beijing Zengyuan Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd., continuous magnetic control coating production line and ion coating technology of Dongguan Huicheng Vacuum Technology Co., Ltd.. With the intensification of industry competition, the products of each company are constantly expanding, The market competition will become increasingly fierce.

6. Enterprises are dominant, and the market competition is fierce. The industry of ion vacuum coating machine in China is mainly private enterprises, followed by state-owned enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. The market competition is fierce. After the fierce market competition in the past five years, a group of private multi arc ion vacuum coating machine enterprises with high technical level and certain production scale have emerged in the tide of market economy and occupied a large market share.

At present, the coating technology of ion pvd coating machine occupies a very important market share, and is also the most common coating technology with the highest utilization rate among vacuum coating technologies.
