Turbomolecular pumped system with automatic operation. 24" x 24" bell jar mounted to 24" collar feedthrough with up to three electron beam gun or sputter evaporation sources. All pressure gauge and source instrumentation mounted in cabinet. Consult Factory Model VE-90 Model shown with optional stainless steel bell jar, hoist and shutter. (Click here for a larger photo.) The model VE-90 vacuum evaporator is the perfect answer to a requirement for vacuum evaporation or coating. Its simple controls and rapid cycle time facilitate uncomplicated productivity. Reliable coating chores are accomplished in an oil-free, high vacuum environment that is available in 10 minutes from atmosphere with the touch of a button. Greater control and more predictable film parameters are available, almost as fast as the material can be loaded. Additional options are available to give the user some flexibility in customizing the system to a particular application. Consult factory for available options. Price     $33,300. Specifications Vacuum System Bell Jar: Pyrex, Viton® sealed, 12" x 18" High Vacuum Pump: 260 l/sec turbomolecular pump Roughing Pump: 3.8 cfm 2-stage, direct drive rotary Pressure Instrumentation High Vacuum: Digital ionization gauge Low Vacuum Digital convection gauge Evaporation System Source: Resistive Power: 1kVA, nominal 75 A (optional 2 kVA, 200 A) Positions: 2 switch selectable pairs of baseplate feedthroughs (filament holders and carbon evaporation kit are optional) Metering: Digital ammeter (100A FS) Utilities Electrical: 115/220 VAC at 20 A Water: None Air: None Hardware Cabinet: Tubular steel frame with casters, side panels, and Formica top Dimensions: 30" L x 20" W x 42" H Hoist: Optional Model VE-100 The model VE-100 extends the technology of the VE-90 by the addition of a 3 kW e-Gun evaporation source while retaining a philosophy of simple, uncomplicated operation. Unlike larger systems, the VE-100's purpose is not overstated: It simply provides thin film coating--of virtually any materials-- quickly, cleanly and efficiently in a compact, dedicated system. With the additional technology of the source, a slightly larger bell jar and a collar, the optional flexibility of this system is almost boundless. To list just a few examples, many users add additional crucibles to assist in uninterrupted multi-coating operations, and the addition of a bell jar collar allows the user to introduce manipulators, additional electrical or water feedthroughs, and thin film instrumentation. Consult factory for available options. Price     $61,000.

Hoist: Standard Model VE-240 (Click here for a larger photo.) The model VE-240 vacuum evaporator offers the most flexibility of all the VE evaporators. It has the largest bell jar in the VE series and the feedthrough collar accommodates up to 3 evaporation sources. It comes with a 1000 l/s turbomolecular pump; maintaining the VE’s reputation for quick pump down. Options abound for this evaporator system. Consult factory for more information.
