UHV2: Design for ultra high and ultra clean vacuum

Information

In module 1, the trainees have been acquainted with the basics of vacuum technique. Subsequently, in this module they learn how to make a rigid design, applicable for vacuum conditions. One of the key items is to work on exercises in work-shop like conditions, guided by 2 trainers. The last day will be dedicated to the construction, assembly and testing of vacuum systems

Intended for

The course “Design for ultra high and ultra clean vacuum” is meant for employees of BSc and higher level responsible for constructions in ultra clean vacuum in any way. These employees could be in Research and Development, (Production) Engineering, Purchase, Management, et cetera.

Programme

• Construction in a specific vacuum? The ideal vacuum would be an empty vacuum. Unfortunately, that does not exist. Moreover, any introduction of additional functionalities is a source of gases. Designers in “high pressure world“ may use their acquired instinct and experience; but may fail under ultra clean vacuum conditions. The main reason being that basic rules of vacuum completely differ from those at higher pressures;
• Using calculation exercises and construction tasks the trainees will acquire an in-depth understanding of the specific requirements of vacuum;
• Materials selection; glues; flanges, fittings and feed-throughs;
• Heat transfer in vacuum;
• Movement in vacuum: actuators, friction and dynamics;
• Electronics in vacuum;
• Budgetting of vacuum components;
• Production of parts for ultra clean vacuum systems, relation between design and production;
• Specification of cleanliness, the application of various cleaning techniques including their pro’s and con’s. qualification of parts and modules;
• How to store vacuum components;
• Production and specification, of bigger parts, including cleaning and qualification.

 

This course is part of the Certified Precision Engineer program of the Dutch Society for Precision Engineering (DSPE).

 

This course is organized under the auspices of NEVAC (Nederlandse Vacuumvereniging).
