Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a portable, compact, metallizer for metallizing an article with a coating of metal. The metallizer includes a circular transport member having a plurality of cavities each for receiving an object to be metallized; wherein each cavity and object passes through a loading station and a metallization station. The transport member moves each of the cavities to a loading station for receiving the object and then to a metallization station for metallizing the object. Vacuum means are provided for creating a partial vacuum in one of the cavities at the loading station. A metallization unit is disposed at the metallization station having a magnetron for creating an electromagnetic field for energizing a source of gas. A source of metal is impacted by the energized gas to metallize the object in one of the cavities. A turbo pump is provided for creating a high vacuum in one of the cavities when it is at the metallization station.
