CICEL Overseas Project Update: Vacuum Coating Equipment Installed and Accepted in Poland

CICEL’s professional engineering team successfully finished on-site installation, commissioning and operator training of the CCZK-ION Multi Arc Ion PVD Vacuum Coating Machine for a manufacturing client in Poland. The project passed full performance testing, and the client expressed high satisfaction with machine quality and comprehensive overseas technical service. This turnkey vacuum coating system will support the client’s mass production of stainless steel sanitaryware components, delivering stable and high-quality surface finishing locally in Europe.

CICEL has accumulated decades of experience designing and manufacturing vacuum coating machinery. As global manufacturers keep upgrading product appearance and surface durability requirements, reliable vacuum coating equipment plus complete overseas after-sales support become critical for factories across Europe. Our Poland project marks another milestone of CICEL’s global turnkey vacuum coating solutions, helping European sanitaryware manufacturers build or upgrade their coating production lines without worrying about complicated on-site setup and technical debugging.

Before shipment, our technical team carried out strict factory acceptance testing inside CICEL’s workshop. Every key component of the CCZK-ION Multi Arc Ion PVD Vacuum Coating Machine was inspected, and pre-commissioning was completed to reduce on-site assembly time for the overseas project. Once the equipment arrived at the Polish client’s factory, our experienced engineers travelled to the site to start installation work. The whole process included equipment positioning, pipeline connection, vacuum chamber assembly, electrical wiring, vacuum pumping test and repeated coating trial runs.

On-site training formed a vital part of this delivery project. Our engineers trained the client’s operation and maintenance team step by step. The training covered daily machine operation, parameter adjustment for different coating processes, routine maintenance procedures, common fault diagnosis and safety operation specifications. Hands-on practice allowed the client’s team to master how to run the multi arc ion plating machine independently after our team left the factory.

After days of joint debugging and sample coating tests, the vacuum coating equipment reached all agreed technical indicators. The client mainly produces stainless steel sanitary products, including sinks and drain pipes. The trial coated samples achieved uniform film thickness, strong coating adhesion and stable surface color, fully meeting production standards for bathroom hardware finishing. After full inspection, the client gave positive feedback and expressed great satisfaction with the whole project. They recognised CICEL’s professional engineering skills, efficient working schedule and patient technical guidance throughout the installation and training phase.

Many European sanitaryware manufacturers face challenges when importing industrial vacuum coating machines. Long-distance shipping, complicated installation, lack of local technical support and difficulty in process debugging often delay production plans. CICEL solves these pain points by providing full lifecycle service, from early-stage needs communication, coating sampling and equipment selection, to factory testing, overseas shipment, on-site installation, commissioning, training and long-term online technical support.

Our CCZK-ION multi arc ion plating equipment excels at PVD coating on stainless steel substrates. It creates high-performance decorative coatings for sanitary hardware such as sinks and drain pipes, as well as kitchenware, automotive parts and decorative metal components. Different coating colours such as gold, black, gun grey and rose gold can be realised on stainless steel. The hard PVD film delivers excellent scratch resistance and corrosion resistance, perfectly fitting the humid working environment of bathroom products. View our application cases to learn more.

For European sanitaryware manufacturers, investing in a reliable vacuum coating production line brings obvious competitive advantages. Vacuum PVD coating is an environmentally friendly surface treatment technology compared with traditional electroplating. It produces less pollution and creates hard, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant thin films, helping manufacturers make premium finished bathroom products and meet strict European environmental standards. Stable coating quality and consistent batch colour also help bathroom brands improve product value and attract more high-end market orders.

CICEL keeps expanding overseas project delivery across Europe, Southeast Asia and other regions. We have a mature overseas service system and a team of engineers with rich cross-border installation experience. We fully understand the different manufacturing standards and safety requirements in European factories. Our turnkey service model reduces risks for overseas buyers, allowing them to put new coating lines into production faster.

If your factory in Europe or other regions plans to invest in multi arc ion PVD coating equipment or upgrade existing coating production lines for stainless steel sanitaryware, CICEL is ready to offer professional consultation. You can share your substrate material, target coating effect and required output capacity. Our technical team will evaluate your project and recommend suitable vacuum coating machine models. We also support coating sample testing before order confirmation. Contact us today to explore custom vacuum coating solutions for your manufacturing business.
