Spin coater

We offer you all the equipment, accessories, and chemicals needed to make highly reproducible PDMS membranes. Prepare your PDMS, choose the thickness, and quickly create your PDMS membranes for your experiment in less than one hour!

Our system ensures you:

highly reproducible PDMS membranes
Easy manufacturing of PDMS membranes
High-precision PDMS membrane thickness
Wide range of PDMS membrane thickness

Vacuum pump / Air compressor

Compresseur-datasheet

The Spin coater needs a 4bar pressure and vacuum access to work correctly. The vacuum is used to maintain the wafer on the chuck, and the pressure protects the Spin coater from the liquid, photoresist, or PDMS from getting inside the rotor.

We also provide an efficient, powerful, and noiseless vacuum pump and air compressor in case your laboratories do not have pressurized air or vacuum lines, or if you wish to install your station anywhere in your facilities.

Hot plate

Our hot plate is ideal for the final steps of hardening the PDMS or – depending on the process – baking some photoresist.

We offer a simple and efficient hot plate with the best quality and price conditions.

An adaptive offer!

Since each laboratory is different, since each research is unique, we do adapt the offer to be as close as possible of the real need. We discuss together what will be the best efficient facility and thus add or remove equipment, accessories, chemicals.

Do not hesitate to ask one of our technico-commercials to make an assessment of your facility and to advise you on your project.

Options

We have created basic offer with every thing needed to have a complete working set, but some option can be add according to each situation. We have selected some option commonly use during softlithography process but do not hesitate to ask our engineer if you have special expectations.
