In microelectronics, solar technology, surface coating and metallurgy, many of the production processes take place under vacuum conditions. In order to manage these processes in a safe manner, knowledge about the basics and principles of vacuum creation and measurement are required. For many surface analysis methods and in the elementary particle research, vacuum is a prerequisite.
We offer tailored seminars for technicians as well as commercial employees dealing the basics of vacuum.

B1 Fundamentals of Vacuum Technology
Code: B1.1 to B1.4
Target group: Users of vacuum technology
Seminar goal: The purpose of this seminar is to provide you with the basics and principles of vacuum technology to help you understand the processes in your vacuum system in a qualitative and quantitative way.
Topics:
- Physical and vacuum technology
- Definitions, units, calculations
- Vapor, vapor pressure, desorption
- Flow types, pump down times, conductances - Design and operation principle of vacuum pumps:
- Fore vacuum pumps: rotary vane pumps, roots pumps (Roots blowers),scroll and screw pump
- High vacuum pumps: Turbo molecular pumps, oil diffusion and cryopumps
- Pump systems - Connection elements in vacuum technology
- Introduction in total pressure measurement for the pressure range 1000 to 10-12 mbar
- Leak detection
- leak detection methods and practical examples
The seminar presents theory and experiment by means of practical experiments, cutting models, videos and operational pumps and components.
