During the 1990s, the Laser‐Arc technology for the deposition of superhard amorphous carbon films (Diamor®) was developed at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology. This technology has now been scaled up by a factor of 4 compared to existing devices and integrated in an industrial large‐volume vacuum arc coater. Initial results demonstrate the possibility of depositing well adherent Diamor® films with a thickness of more than 2 microns and a hardness above 4000 HV on larger parts and tools. This opens up a wide field of industrial applications.
