SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES has delivered far more than 8,500 vacuum PVD sputtering machines, PECVD systems and evaporation systems s well as since its foundation in 1995.
The machines range from ultra-high vacuum deposition machines applying extremely thin layers of around 0.2 nm for the semiconductor industry down to high throughput sputter machines for metallizing of e.g. a lipstick cover in 0.3 s. These Systems are mainly used in photovoltaics, data storage, sensor technology and decorative coatings as well as hydrogen, battery, automotive, electrical shielding and advanced packing applications.
