3M™ Evaporation Boat Lasermet

3M™ Evaporation Boat Lasermet is a two-component boat with a specially designed lasered surface that improves initial wetting behavior, shortens the initial break-in, and allows for maximum aluminum pool. Additionally, its larger working surface increases the evaporation rate during metallization.

A Leader in Evaporation Boats. 3M is a leading global manufacturer of evaporation boats for metallizing applications. Suitable for all vacuum web coaters, 3M™ Evaporation Boats are made of electrically conductive ceramic composites, and are characterized by a unique combination of chemical, mechanical and electrical properties. 3M evaporation boats are the result of intensive research and development, the use of modern processing and manufacturing techniques, and high-quality 3M advanced ceramic materials. Our manufacturing processes are optimized to ensure reliable and repeatable product performance. 3M™ Evaporation Boat Lasermet features a patented lasered surface treatment that improves initial wetting for easy boat break-in, as well as allowing for the maximum aluminum pool throughout the life of the boat. Aluminum better wets this 2-component boat along the whole lasered surface due to its higher TiB2 content.
