    FLEXTURA R&D FOR ADVANCED THIN FILM PRODUCTION

    Unique research and development platform


Research and development sputtering and evaporation cluster system Polyteknik AS PVD system cluster thin film

FLEXTURA R&D

The Flextura R&D Cluster is a truly unique research and development platform with a base of the best and most reliable industrial components topped with options for the latest deposition processes in combination with advanced analysis of thin film. It is unveiling a new way of modular thinking for PVD systems. From a single chamber with evaporation or sputtering processes as a standalone system to an efficient research and development cluster tool with multiple advanced processes.

Bottom line – The Flextura R&D Cluster platform delivers advanced thin film research results faster by automated deposition and to some extent automated analysis results for the researcher who will have more time to interpret results, write articles and optimise or find our next wonder material!
