ST3000
The SainTech ST3000 Ion System has been specially developed to provide an extremely reliable and maintenance-free facility for many applications in physical vapour deposition processes. The compact design and rugged construction allows easy installation to both new and existing vacuum deposition systems.
ST3000 Features:
- Ion Beam energies up to 300eV
- Ion Beam power to 3.0 kilowatts
- Ion Beam currents to 15 amps
- Full-time use of high purity oxygen

Optional Features Available –
- Dual Filament. Electronic system detects filament failure and auto switches to second filament. Refer System Specifications for detail
- Dual Gas. This feature provides use of either pure gas delivery or a mixture of two gases in any ratio. Refer System Specification for detail
- Mounting Hardware MH. Several options are available. The mounting brackets are clamped to a special gas feedthrough. Refer System Specification for detail
