Sputtering Components releases CM-Series external end block

Sputtering Components proudly announces the official product release of the CM external-mount end block.

As with all SCI cathodes, the CM-Series endblock offers a customizable drive shaft length, simple design, and the patented water fill and drain feature.  What makes this product unique is the ability to place dual cathodes in a 220-mm space and the flexibility in target sizes it can accommodate - both standard 125-mm ID targets or smaller, 80-mm ID targets. It will easily support a target length of up to 1000 mm.

Measuring just 257 mm x 95.3 mm, this end block’s average weight is just 17 kgs, making the CM-Series end block an ideal choice for small sputtering systems with limited space. It is designed to run with up to 20 kW DC or 80 kHz MFAC, 1500 v/50 A.

The magnet bar externally adjusts to any angle and the drive motor has a 360⁰ positioning capability. With an easy access water seal cartridge and the simple design of this cathode, maintenance on SCI end blocks can easily be done by the customer’s maintenance team.

The CM external end block, along with SCI’s RAM-Bar™, will be on display at the SVC TechCon, booth #611. For more information and technical data, please contact us.
