Production of automated vacuum units and deposition equipment. Establishment of center for developing new deposition methods and servicing equipment
The project will produce ESTO-Vacuum’s Caroline series of modular and cluster automated vacuum units for forming micro- and nanostructures. The units are used extensively in production of semiconductor and power devices, micromechanical systems, quartz resonators, semiconductor lasers, and LEDs based on gallium nitride, gallium arsenide, and indium phosphide.
ESTO-Vacuum units are manufactured using one technology platform. Each unit is equipped with an integrated modem for transmission of data to support services in the event of malfunctioning and for online tuning.
The company also produces a line of vacuum units for deposition of various modified coatings: anticorrosive, wear-resistant, strengthening, and other coatings. As part of the project, the ESTO-Vacuum plans to open a center where it will update existing vacuum equipment, develop new equipment, and develop new deposition methods by order.
