VST — Your vision, we design
High-vacuum technology, thin-film deposition, vacuum ovens, altitude test chambers, and arc-melting systems. Built since 1982 for research labs, satellite agencies, and industrial manufacturers who need a system, not a catalog item.
Custom Vacuum Engineering Since 1982
We obtained excellent process results on all layers. The equipment runs daily, with no failure.
Most engagements start as one of three problems. Whichever it is, the same team scopes, designs, builds, and supports the system through its operating life. Specifications, components, and integration are all decided with you, not pulled from a catalog.
Sputtering, evaporation, and ion-assisted systems for metals, dielectrics, and organic materials. Single-chamber to multi-chamber cluster tools with load-locks and inert glovebox integration.
Vacuum ovens, arc-melting systems, and process chambers built around your samples and your protocol. Designed for daily lab use and engineered for the long haul.
Altitude test chambers and space simulators used by satellite developers and aerospace research labs. Plus authorized integration of ATEQ leak testers and J.A. Woollam ellipsometers.
An integrated tool with separate chambers for RF/DC sputtering with load-lock and ion-assisted e-beam evaporation with substrate flip. Designed compact, built robust, simple enough for a daily research workflow. Live and running.
These are the workloads our customers come to us for. Each card lists the product lines that go into that application, so you can jump straight to the equipment from here, or read the full catalogue below.
Compact, robust, easy-to-operate systems for thin-film research groups. Designed for graduate students to run, engineered to last through generations of them. Daily-use installations at CNRS Montpellier, HUJI, Technion, Weizmann, BGU, Bar-Ilan, and Tel Aviv University.
Altitude test chambers, thermal-vacuum simulators, and aerospace-grade degassing systems. The same engineering team behind ISRO's compact sputter + e-beam at the U R Rao Satellite Centre delivers to IAI, Rafael, Elbit, and ELTA Systems.
Built for the moisture- and oxygen-sensitive chemistries lithium and sodium-ion research demands. Glovebox-integrated electrode prep, dedicated TCH-500/550D ovens for solvent removal (NMP), arc-melting for refractory current-collector materials.
Sputtering for hard, optical, and barrier coatings at pilot and production scale. Alongside our own systems, VST distributes advanced analytical instrumentation — ATEQ leak testers, J.A. Woollam ellipsometers, and Prevac HV/UHV systems — for process control and metrology.
The ELMUL EVAP-10X electron beam deposition system — a 6 kW, four-pocket e-beam evaporator with planetary substrate rotation, cryo-pumped below 2×10⁻⁷ Torr and run with Telemark quartz process control. Built for R&D and low-scale production of precision optical coatings, with the reliability and traceability defense-sector work demands.
Dedicated Josephson Junction multi-chamber systems with 0.01° tilt accuracy and controlled in-situ oxidation. Delivered to the Bar-Ilan University Nano Center for superconductive-circuit production. Supports superconducting qubits, NV centers in diamond, spin qubits, and topological architectures.
The TCH-495 medical altitude chamber is IEC 60601-1 compliant for medical equipment qualification. ATEQ leak testers cover sterile medical packaging integrity. Customers include Medtronic and GE Healthcare DCD.
Every VST customer starts somewhere. We engineer the same precision into a compact R&D tool and a multi-chamber production cluster — so you can scale your process without changing your software, your recipes, or your team.
