VacTrade UK DSR1
The VacTrade UK DSR1 Desk Sputter Coater is a compact, high-efficiency coating system engineered for depositing thin films of noble metals such as gold (Au), palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), and gold/palladium (Au/Pd) alloys. It produces uniform, fine-grain coatings on non-conductive or poorly conductive specimens with a rapid cycle time, making it an excellent choice for SEM sample preparation.
- VacTrade UK DSR1 has been developed to exceed the requirements for SEM/TEM sample preparation. The compact and easy to use sputter coater, has the option of using existing pumps or supplied with a pump. For external pumping the on board computer controls the pump or pumping rig.
- The Desk Magnetron Sputter Coater (DSR1) is a highly productive tool known for delivering consistent and highly repeatable results within a fully automated system. Its ergonomic design and small footprint make the DSR1 SEM coating system easy to use.
- The DSR1-170 is set up as a sputter coater specifically designed for preparing samples for scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
- The DSR1, equipped with a 2-inch magnetron cathode and an 80W switching DC power supply, is versatile for various research and thin-film applications. Additionally, it can be outfitted with a water-cooled cathode, making it suitable for extended deposition processes. This model accommodates substrates of up to 4 inches in size.

- The DSR1-170 model is tailored specifically for SEM sample preparation, delivering optimal coating for high-resolution imaging. Featuring a 2” magnetron cathode with an 80 W switching DC power supply, the DSR1 supports various research and thin-film applications. Additionally, it can be equipped with a water-cooled cathode for extended deposition times, and it accommodates substrates up to 4 inches in diameter, making it ideal for advanced material research.
