CVI equipment consists of a reactor or reaction chamber in which chemical and temperature parameters are controlled to deposit layers of carbon on a substrate. 

CVI is a process in which carbon material (usually in the form of a porous structure) is saturated or impregnated with carbon materials in the gas phase. The CVI process uses carbonaceous gases such as methane or acetylene, which react in the reactor to form carbon deposits on the substrate surface. 

CVI technology is used in the production of carbon brake discs for high-performance, sports, electric and luxury cars. In the case of the brake disc production, the process enables the creation of a structure with exceptional strength and low weight, which is crucial for effective braking. By precisely managing this process, brake discs produced using CVI have excellent high temperature resistance, minimal wear, and excellent friction properties, ensuring safe and efficient vehicle braking. 

CVD equipment contains a reaction chamber where parameters such as temperature, pressure and chemical composition of the process gas are controlled. 

CVD is a technique for producing coatings on the substrate surfaces through chemical reactions in the gas phase.  

The chemical deposition process (CVD) is a technique used, for example, to produce protective coatings (tool drilling). The CVD furnace creates protective layers on tools, increasing their durability, strength, and efficiency during processing. In the CVD process, chemical reactions allow layers to be deposited on the tool surface, improving its properties. These coatings provide better resistance to abrasion, high temperatures and corrosive environments, which translates into extended tool life and increased efficiency during industrial production.   

The graphite purification process involves removing dirt and impurities from the graphite material in order to increase its purity and excellent properties. 

Various techniques are used to purify graphite, including thermal treatment and chemical processes. 

The graphite purification process using process gases such as fluorine and chlorine takes place in a specially designed furnace which enables the controlled removal of impurities from the graphite material. This advanced process uses the reactive properties of fluorine and chlorine, which facilitates the removal of contaminants, such as metal compounds and other impurities, through chemical reactions. During purification, graphite is subjected to high temperatures in the presence of these gases, which causes them to interact with impurities, transforming them into easily evaporated or volatile compounds. This process is crucial for the production of high-quality graphite materials which are used in advanced technologies, such as the production of fuel cells, the electronics industry, or refractory material production. Thanks to the furnace’s use of fluorine and chlorine, it is possible to obtain pure graphite of very high quality standards, which is extremely important in applications where the purity of the material is crucial.
