Gauge Filament Replacement
Tungsten filaments have an emission life of one to three years in UHV. The life will be dependent on the residual gases present, range of pressures and vibration coupled to the filament. Tungsten filaments become brittle in use and the most common causes of fa...
Introduction
The SMD4 stepper motor drive is a single-axis bipolar stepper motor drive, intended for use with AMLs range of vacuum-compatible stepper motors (VCSMs). It maximises motor performance while minimising temperature rise. Powerful software is supplied with th...
