Viewport Shutters for UHV Applications

We’re proud to offer a versatile range of viewport shutters and source shutter actuators, powered by our advanced MagiDrive magnetically-coupled feedthrough technology.

Designed specifically for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environments, these components deliver exceptional precision, durability, and performance. With multiple configurations available - tailored to various flange sizes and torque requirements - they’re built to meet the demands of diverse applications.

Our viewport shutters play a critical role in protecting sensitive equipment, managing light and particle contamination, and maintaining the integrity of vacuum chambers. Whether you're working in research, manufacturing, or high-precision instrumentation, these solutions help ensure your systems operate at peak efficiency.

Ideal for a variety of applications, including:
▪️ Surface Analysis Systems: For managing exposure and contamination in analytical instruments.
▪️ Semiconductor Fabrication: Where precise control of light and particle exposure is required.
▪️ High-Temperature Processes: Our bakeable shutters are well-suited for processes involving high temperatures, such as Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD).

These viewport shutters are engineered to enhance the performance and reliability of your UHV systems, making them a vital component for ensuring the success of sophisticated high-tech processes.
