What is it?

The Integrity-29 Ophthalmic Coating System is described as a Denton Vacuum system built around a 29-inch-wide by 29-inch-deep by 32-inch-high 304 stainless-steel vacuum chamber mounted on a welded frame with control cabinets. The source describes integrated pumping, vacuum gauging, process gas control, substrate rotation, substrate heating, a CC-105 ion source, electron-beam evaporation, low-voltage resistance evaporation, source shuttering, deposition control, and computer-based automation.

Frequently asked questions

What type of equipment is the Integrity-29?

It is an ophthalmic vacuum coating system.[1]

What major subsystems are included?

The documented subsystems include the vacuum chamber system, cabinets and power/signal distribution, pumping system, vacuum gauging, process gas control, substrate fixturing/rotation, six-circuit water manifold, substrate heater system, CC-105 ion source, electron beam evaporation source, low-voltage resistance sources, source shutter, deposition control system, and control and automation.[1]

How is vacuum produced and maintained?

The system uses an APD-10SC cryogenic pump, an APD Displex water-cooled compressor, an Alcatel 2063 rotary vane mechanical pump, a Polycold PFC330ST cryogenic cooler, a high-vacuum gate valve, and automatic pumping programs.[1]

How are gases controlled?

Two MKS 2179 mass flow controllers are used. One introduces gas via the CC-104 ion source, and the other introduces gas directly into the process chamber.[1]

What does the substrate handling system accept?

The single-rotation fixture is pre-machined to accept fixturing segments and rings of various diameters that hold lenses.[1]
