Building Surface Science Equipment

Ultra-high vacuum systems for surface analysis and sample preparation. Modular by design, built for decades of daily operation, customized to your experiment.

Why OmniVac

Why researchers choose OmniVac

01

Reliable by construction

State-of-the-art systems, engineered for long-term, low-maintenance operation. Materials, pumping concepts and failure handling are chosen so the vacuum holds — day after day, year after year.

02

Flexible by design

Multi-purpose platforms, customized to your real requirements. Manipulators span below 10 K to 700 K, and chambers reconfigure as your research changes direction.

03

Direct consultation

You speak with the engineers who design and build your system. Together we work out the configuration your experiment actually needs — before you commit.

04

Over 30 years in UHV

Three decades of ultra-high vacuum systems and surface-science instrumentation — from single components to beamline endstations. Owner-managed and built in-house.

In Operation

From assembly to experiment

Every system is planned, integrated, pumped and leak-checked in-house before it ships.
