GeniCore U-FAST (SPS) Compact

The GeniCore U-FAST Compact is intended for scientific institutes and universities. It has all the same functionality as the U-FAST GC, but in a smaller size optimal for research and development activities. The device uses less energy and requires a smaller installation footprint.

The COMPACT model is a great choice for R&D applications where the aim is to develop new materials which can be then scaled up to larger diameters by using GeniCore U-FAST GC (SPS) Device.

The vacuum chamber is a cooling-jacketed, double-walled, stainless steel construction supported by a steel frame. The interior walls of the chamber are thoroughly polished and protected by stainless steel reflectors.

The chamber door allows material to be loaded and unloaded, along with inspection and maintenance. The door is sealed with two manually operated clamps.

The chamber is connected by means of sealed vacuum flanges to the following supplementary equipment:

  • Pumping system
  • Actuators
  • Viewing ports (sight glass)
  • Safety valve
  • Vacuum gauge port
  • Thermocouple port
  • Two additional spare ports

In the U-FAST COMPACT device the temperature is controlled, measured and logged by the Programable Logic Controller (PLC), enabling easy control of the process and its subsequent analysis and adjustment. Additional ports are available for experimental data logging and control.

The U-FAST COMPACT vacuum system includes:

  • Rotary pump,
  • Measuring sensors,
  • Vacuum purge valve,
  • Vacuum relief valve,
  • Safety valve,
  • Turbomolecular pump.

Process instrumentation and controls automate the entire process.

The inert gas system supplies the chamber with gases. It consists of:

  • Pressure relief valve
  • Inlet valve
  • Pressure gauge set for pressure measurement
  • Mass Flow Controller for gases

The gas system allows for the introduction of inert shielding gas such as argon, helium, or nitrogen into the sintering chamber, with precise atmosphere composition regulated by PLC controlled digital thermal mass flow controllers.

Other Specifications:

  • Pulse time < 1ms
  • Heating power up to 50 kW
  • Sinter diameter up to 30 mm
  • Vacuum level < 9 x 10-5 mbar
