Angstrom Engineering Inc. (Canada) - manufactures vacuum sputter deposition, electron beam evaporation, ion-assisted deposition, resistive thermal evaporation and space emulation equipment.
Angstrom Engineering Inc. (Canada) is a rapidly growing and one of the fastest growing technology companies in Canada. The company, founded in 1992, is currently a global player in the vacuum process and research equipment market. Today the company offers equipment for various vacuum film deposition processes, such as magnetron deposition (sputter deposition), electron beam evaporation (electron beam evaporation), ion-assisted deposition, resistive thermal evaporation, as well as space emulation equipment.
Emulation of outer space and environment
Chambers equipped with high vacuum pumps and a temperature control system for testing components and assemblies in the vacuum of space.
Space simulation technology aims to create space conditions in the laboratory to test components that will eventually be sent into space. Pressure and temperature control are two key parameters required for space simulation. To achieve these conditions, Angstrom Engineering Inc. has developed a chamber in which it is possible to achieve the parameters of the vacuum of outer space using cryogenic and turbomolecular pumps in combination with mechanical foreline pumps. The temperature control system includes a combination of heaters and surface coolers. The temperature range depends on the heating and cooling method and usually ranges from -60ºC to 120ºC.
