The number of products used in everyday life that require vacuum coating is increasing rapidly. Vacuum coatings are used to enhance a product’s cosmetic apearance as well as its functionality.
Adixen vacuum products have a proven record of high reliability and high performance in R&D as well as in high volume production coating applications. They have been used successfully in PVD or reactive sputtering, thermal evaporation and CVD, chemical vapor deposition.
Each of these coating processes presents its own set of challenges for the vacuum system. Alcatel Vacuum Technology has developed several different pumping solutions, each tailored to the demands of a specific vacuum coating process.
Below you will find an overview of several coating applications and the recommended Adixen products, by product type. Metal strip coating :
Adixen Maglev turbos have been tested and qualified by several metal strip coating customers. This coating application requires a few high vacuum pumps backed by roots pumping systems.
Pumping solutions
Maglev ATH-M Series turbo pumps, with either embedded or stand-alone electronics: ATH1600M, ATH2300M and ATP2300M.
ADK series and ACP 120 Series dry roughing pumps with large RSV Series roots blowers.
Leak detection and pressure measurement
ASM 182-192 Series and ASM 142 Series helium leak detectors are ideal to check vacuum tightness of your coater.
Vacuum gauges ACC2009 provide accurate and robust pressure management of process chamber.
