DAT

Sony’s Metal Evaporation Technology

Sony's metal evaporation technology, derived from the development of the AIT format, delivers newly developed super-fine magnetic layer that is optimized for DAT320. This enables the tape to have higher coercivity and greater magnetic flux density, resulting in high output and low noise level. The carbon protective layer deposited on the magnetic layer ensures a strong wear resistence, providing a higher durability. The application of a lubricant layer provides lower friction which reduces head wear. Again, Sony's expertise in metal evaporation technologies has led to the development of this highly reliable next generation.
