Functional principle
Unlike the conventional rotary feedthroughs with elastomer or bellow seal, a magnetic fluid is used as the dynamic seal that fills the gap between the moving shaft and its stationary housing. These liquid o-ring seal is held in place by powerful ring magnets without causing friction. This will result in no wearing or minimal heat generation so that long service life and high reliability are assured. The feedthroughs withstand differential pressures of above 2.5 bar. They have very low leak rates of up to 10-11 mbar l/s (He) or less and are absolutely vacuum suitable. They reach a rotational speed up to several thousand revolutions per minute. RIGAKUs rotary feedthroughs have already proven long life and reliability by its use as components of high power x-ray generators and semiconductor process equipment. Besides standard examples customised solutions are available.
Temperatur dependency
Because the magnetofluid is a liquid, the operating temperature is an important parameter for the usage of rotary feedthroughs. A non-stop operation is possible up to a temperature of 60 C. The use of water-cooled feedthroughs is recommended at higher temperatures. Furthermore the usage of temperature resistant carrier oils for the magnetofluid, such as PFPE, becomes necessary. Figure 1 allows a rough estimation of the point, when water cooling is recommended. Please contact your customer adviser for further information.

The standard feedthroughs of the RMS Series include 4 antipole ring magnets with the pole position: NS-SN-NS-SN. This alignment creates an especially strong field strength at the pole shoes which generate low external stray fields. Milled circular grooves are located at the pole shoes inside, facing the shaft. The shaft itself is not weakened by grooves or the like. A strong magnetic field is concentrated in the gap between the magnet and the shaft, forming the magnetofluid into liquid o-rings between the grooves (see figure below) due to this design. A pressure stage is created between every two of these o-rings (see figure 3). Besides the very good leakage properties this design has another advantage, to withstand high differential pressures with few stages. Furthermore there evolves only minimal frictional heat due to the relatively big gap between magnet and shaft, as well as the low persistent forces of the magnetofluid. This also results in minmal maintenance requirements.

Option hollow shaft (HS) The models of the RMS series with a hollow shaft (HS) can be assembled with shafts of non-magnetic materials and special shafts (tubes, drive shafts or the like). The magnetofluid sealed area of the RMS-HS series is situated between a cylindrical hull (called hollow shaft) and the external housing. The hollow shaft and the housing can be turned in the opposite direction. The shaft that is actually going to be turned, is inserted accurately through the hollow shaft. Two static O-ring seals inside of the hollow shaft connect it with the shaft and seal the gap vacuum tight. If the shaft is turned, the hollow shaft turns as well. You can protect the shaft and the hollow shaft from distortions or displacements by means of a clamp (optional).

XY Translators
Translators for 2 Axes Linear Motion
Rotatable Axis MultiBase Manipulator The Rotatable Axis MultiBase X-Y manipulator enables the X and Y axes to be rotated about the axis of the manipulator, whilst under vacuum. The mounting flanges of the vacuum system and at the Z translator remain fixed while the actuation of the XY translator moves around them. This is a unique possibility to precisely align the movement axes with a port axis of the chamber. This feature is especially useful where e.g the user wants to move the sample along the axis of a lens, etc. mounted on ports which are not exactly parallel or perpendicular to the manipulator axes. Using the Rotatable Axis MultiBase manipulator together with z-shifts, rotary drives and other options for sample handling, probe heating or cooling, a complete eucentric manipulator system can be assembled without a sliding seal or differentially pumped rotary housing being required.

UHV Manipulators
MultiCentre UHV Probe Manipulators
Manipulators for research and development in surface physics, synchrotron applications and other analytical methods in UHV Introduction
MultiCentre provide a complete solution for probe transfer and manipulation. UHV manipulators enable mechanical motion in vacuum systems necessary in connection with probe analysis. For applications which require various axes, tilt, rotation or probe heating or cooling, the British expert UHV Design, represented by VACOM, is specialised to build sophisticated manipulators with up to 6 independently movable axes by using different modular components. These manipulators are characterised by high resolution and enable a precise positioning of probes or metrology in a vacuum chamber.Typical applications are the electron spectroscopy, laser optical analysis, beamlines or thin film deposition (e. g. MBE, CVD).
