His impressive background includes collaboration with UCLA and Los Alamos National Laboratory on plasma jet development, as well as leadership roles at Oerlikon and Balzers Parent Company. As one of ACT's founding members, Dr. Schuetze holds 4 patents and has authored over 20 scientific papers, making him instrumental in developing our cutting-edge coating solutions.
We specialize in high-performance coatings designed to enhance tool life, improve part performance, and reduce operational costs.
Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coatings provide a tough, hard finish that can be applied to a variety of materials and substrates, including cutting tools and molds.
CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coatings are ultra-thin films that combine the hardness of diamond with the lubricity of graphite. These coatings are applied through a vapor-phase process, resulting in a strong, uniform layer that is extremely hard, wear-resistant, and chemically inert. CVD DLC coatings are widely used in industries such as automotive, medical, electronics, and tooling, where low friction, high durability, and biocompatibility are essential. Their excellent performance in reducing wear, preventing corrosion, and improving surface smoothness makes them ideal for extending the life and efficiency of high-performance components.
