What it is

The Denton Vacuum Integrity-50 is a fully automated ophthalmic coating system. The Denton Vacuum Integrity-50 includes a vacuum chamber system, power and signal distribution, a pumping system, vacuum valves and gauging, pressure and flow control, substrate fixturing and rotation, a six-circuit water manifold, a substrate heater system, a CC-105 ion source, an electron beam evaporation source, low voltage resistance sources, source shutters, Plasar hardware, deposition control, and control and automation.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Ophthalmic coating tools are used after substrate fabrication, surfacing, and cleaning, when the optical part is ready to receive functional thin films. Ophthalmic coating tools are followed by inspection, performance verification, and any subsequent finishing or packaging steps required for the coated optic.

Applications

The Denton Vacuum Integrity-50 is used for ophthalmic coating and vacuum deposition.[2]

  • Ophthalmic coating
