Load-Lock Systems Introduction
From mdcvacuum.com

Load-lock systems are atmosphere to vacuum sample staging and entry systems typically mounted to larger research or process systems. They are a convenient and practical method for transferring samples in and out of vacuum systems. MDC load-lock systems are available with both circular and rectangular entry ports. Circular port systems will accommodate sample sizes of 1-3/8", 2-3/8" and 3-3/4" in diameter. Rectangular port systems will accommodate sample sizes 8" in diameter. All load-lock systems are comprised of five basic components including a sample staging chamber, gate valve, sample transporter, quick-access door and an observation window.

 


Products & Services
Vacuum chambers and components are specialized vessels that can maintain a high vacuum process environment for manufacturing thin films, microelectronics, optics and materials. 
Vacuum cups and vacuum pads engage an object and attach to it with an applied, sealed vacuum. The pads then lift, move, or position the work piece in assembly or inspection applications.
Vacuum viewports and access doors are components for viewing, accessing or transferring samples or process devices in a vacuum chamber or system.
RF waveguide components are circular, elliptical or rectangular metal tubes or pipes through which electromagnetic waves are propagated in microwave and RF communications. The wave passing through the medium is forced to follow the path determined by the physical structure of the guide.
Vacuum valves are used when a vacuum must be maintained in a closed system.
