The use of high vacuum pumps in coating applications is essential for creating a controlled, clean, and efficient environment.
These pumps play a crucial role in achieving uniform coatings, improving adhesion, and minimising the impact of contaminants on the coating process.
Cryo Pumps
A cryopump operates based on the principle of cryogenic condensation, employing extremely low temperatures to capture and trap gas molecules.
The pump features a cold surface, cooled by a helium circuit, which freezes and solidifies gases on contact.
As the gas molecules make contact with the cold surface, they lose energy and condense into a solid. This process effectively removes gas molecules from the pumped environment,
creating a vacuum.
Periodically, the cryopump's cold surface is regenerated to release the trapped gases and maintain pump efficiency.
Cryopumps are known for their high pumping speed and efficiency, making them valuable in applications such as manufacturing and research.
As with all mechanical assemblies, regular maintenance by skilled technicians using high quality parts will ensure optimal performance,
longevity and reduced cost of ownership.
