Sputtering Systems

DC Magnetron Sputtering Systems


A wide range of budgetary DC sputtering magnetrons - balanced and unbalanced, linear with the length up to 1600 mm and more on demand, circular, triangle (Delta), single and dual. Magnetrons are intended for R&D, lab, and mass production deposition of metals and their compounds (nitrides, oxides) on metal, plastic, ceramic, glass and roll substrates (see Coating Machines Section).

Our magnetrons may be produced for flange and inside a chamber installation, with direct or indirect target water cooling. We can supply magnetrons meeting your custom target dimensions. We provide also magnetron power supplies and ion sources for ion beam assisted deposition matched with ordered magnetrons (see Ion Sources Section).

Ion Beam Sputtering Systems

This patented ion beam sputtering system includes ring ion source and rotatable water-cooled three targets holder. It allows deposit multi-layers structures in the same run. The similar second ring ion source with opposite beam direction may be used for substrate treatment.

Ion sources are produced for targets Ø10, 30, 50, 100, 150, and 200 mm

1) - 80 mm distance between target and substrate.

Miniature circular ion sources (beam ouput diameter 20 mm) are developed for some applications like rare metals sputtering, ion beam milling, etc.

Ion beam sputtering system consisting of two independed linear anodic layer ion sources, two water cooled rotating target holders with target charge neutralization allows deposit complicated multi-layer and composite coatings onto substrates located on rotating drum.
