600i Series Vertical Batch-Sputtering System
The 600i Series systems are particularly popular for sensitive applications requiring target material that produces unusually high particulate contamination.
The 600i Series includes the 603i, 643i, 654i, and 654ix. The ix series systems offer an extended sputter area to increase process uniformity utilizing KDF’s “X-series”™ cathodes. The ix series also supports KDF’s new LMM™ cathode along with other cathodes designed by our in house cathode design team.
