The vacuum market is known to be very competitive and cost-sensitive, time to market of new pump designs is steadily decreasing. Pump manufacturers typically develop families of pumps having the same interfaces and varying vacuum performance. MECOS sees clear demand for standardized “carriers” and, therefore, is committed to supplying platform solutions to our vacuum customers in order to benefit from standardization and economies of scale.
A typical application for turbo molecular pumps is the semicon industry, where silicon wafers are produced under high vacuum. Another interesting market is the glas coating market with applications for plasma TV and solar panels, for exemple.
