Rotary Feedthroughs with Magnetofluid Sealing
IntroductionVACOM’s rotary feedthroughs with magnetofluid sealing are delivered by RIGAKU, a leading manufacturer of these products.They stand out especially due to the following properties:
Large transmission torque No backlash Appropriate for rough, fine and high vacuum High pressure capacity High reliability due to leak-free operation Very low magnetic leakage Maintenance-free design Long-term maintenance Up to 15,000 revolutions / minute Manufacturing of customised solutions (100 pieces and upward)
Functional principleUnlike 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. RIGAKU’s 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 dependencyBecause 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.

Rotary Feedthroughs with Magnetofluid Sealing
Magnet alignment SUPERSEAL seriesThe SUPERSEAL series has an antipole alignment of the ring magnets. There are two ring magnets applied. The shaft itself serves as a pole shoe to support the ring magnets and the grooves for the sealing magnetofluid. The shaft's diameter is enlarged at the sealing area and designed to serve this purpose (see figure 2). This design is simpler and cheaper. Furthermore, it is possible to set static O-ring seals aside. However, it still has the same advantages concerning pressure capacity, leakage and service life as the RMS series.
Figure 2
Magnet configuration RMS seriesThe 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).

Rotary Feedthroughs with Magnetically Linked Drive
MagiDrive Series
Introduction
Rotary feedthroughs with magnetically coupled drive are the optimal solution to transfer rotations into UHV systems. VACOM offers MagiDrive feedthroughs from the British expert UHV Design.
A rotary feedthrough with magnetically coupled drive enables rotation to be transferred into a vacuum system without the need for mechanical connections. The actuated shaft is placed in a totally closed housing and is connected to the vacuum side only. The drive is placed outside of the housing and includes magnets. The magnetic field of the drive couples to the shaft through the wall of the housing. If the drive is moved, the shaft will be rotated too due to the magnetic coupling (see figure 4).
MagiDrive Rotary feedthroughs have many advantages compared to other feedthroughs of similar design. High power magnets of the latest magnetic materials technology are used for the feedthroughs. This causes very strong magnetic coupling with a very small torsion during rotation. The rotary feedthroughs are bakeable up to 250 °C with installed magnets. Only high-alloyed special steel is used for housings and shafts. The magnetic stray fields are very small. Due to the fact that the drive and the shaft are not mechanically connected there is no need for bellows and other flexible elements as for seals. Leakage at the actautor due to wear of connections or of gaskets is impossible.
Different bearing types are available for the vacuum side shaft bearing for special applications such as low particel generation or semiconductor processes. Numerous drive options – such as manual, pneumatic, motorized – are available. For further information please see the following pages.

Rotary Feedthroughs with Magnetically Linked Drive
MagiDrive Series
MagiDrive with hollow shaft
MagiDrive feedthroughs of the types MD35H, MD64H and MD100H have an additional CF adapter on the drive end (rear of drive gear).This flange is fixed and does not rotate. The driving shafts of these rotary feedthroughs consist of a tube. Resulting in free passageway from the rear of the feedthrough to the vacuum side. This enables feedthroughs to be passed axially through the tube of the rotating shaft.
A further important feature is the stacking of up to four MagiDrive rotary feedthroughs (see figure 5). This enables to create up to four independently rotating axes. The stacking allows a simple solution for multi-motion requirements.
The free inner diameters of the shafts are Ø 12 mm for MD35H with a DN16CF rear flange, Ø 26 mm for MD64H with a DN40CF rear flange and Ø 65 mm at MD100H with DN63CF mounted to the rear.

UHV Rotary Source Shutters
Introduction
High quality rotary source shutters by UHV Design are becoming an industry standard. The pneumatic actuation provides a low cost solution for shutter applications such as sputter sources, ion guns or viewport shutters.
Based on the MagiDrive rotary feedthroughs (see MagiDrive Introduction on page 10-11), the product range includes six different sizes to match the torque requirements for an array of applications. Each drive is fitted with an external pneumatic actuator, providing adjustable sweep between 30 - 170°. Flow control valves are also supplied to adjust the speed of actuation. Use of the MagiDrive range ensures ultimate vacuum integrity through a homogenous design of the vacuum system.
A solenoid operated spool valve switches compressed gas between the actuator ports. Energising the solenoid will sweep the shutter through the required angle. De-energising the solenoid returns the shutter to its start position. Actuators can also be fitted with 'Auto Switch' assemblies, complete with reed switches for system feedback and visual position indicators.
Source shutters are supplied with the standard MagiDrive shaft options.Customised shafts can be quoted on request. Extended bearing housings can be provided for longer shafts.
You can find an overview of the available viewport shutters in chapter 7, "Vacuum Optics".

Rotary-Linear Feedthroughs and Transfer Systems
MPP / MPPL / MPPRL – Push Pull Series
Introduction
Push Pull feedthroughs are available with linear or linear plus rotary motion with up to 250 mm stroke. This compact range is specifically designed for low load applications in high and ultra high vacuum such as probe transfer or manual shutters.
Advantage of the Push Pull Series is a high power-to-size ratio. The rigid linear coupling results in a linear thrust of over 90 N and torque of more than 0.4 Nm.
The magnetic coupling technology of UHV Design removes the need for edge-welded bellows. The elimination of welded bellows maximises the vacuum integrity and provides a robust, cost effective solution. Unlike bellow-sealed designs, the magnetic Push Pull feedthroughs are not subject to the thrust due to vacuum, resulting in smooth, free-moving operation.
The magnetic Push Pull feedthroughs offer a simple and safe alternative to push pull systems with bellows.
The range consists of three series with varying actuation options (manual, pneumatic, stepper or DC motorised).
MPPRL series provides a linear and continuous rotary motion of the vacuum shaft. Linear strokes between 50 mm and 250 mm are offered as standard. Special strokes are available on request.
MPPL series provides internally guided linear motion of the vacuum shaft, guaranteeing a rotation-free motion. Furthermore, the high axial thrust coupling produces no torque and so external rotation of the thimble does not apply a rotational force internally, ensuring smooth motion.
In contrast to MPPL series, MPP series provides linear motion of an 'unguided' vacuum shaft. This is used to manipulate slides or pivot arms where a guided system may conflict with the mechanism. Please note that although the vacuum shaft is free to rotate the MPP does not provide rotation.
PP Series - Sample Transfer SystemsIntroduction
PP series (PowerProbe) provides a magnetically linked actuation which enables linear motion with or without rotation. The standard option has a break-away force of 180 N. Additionally, there are two versions available: with low (70 N) and with high power (310 N).
WSL / WSLR Series - Wobble Stick SeriesIntroduction
Wobble Sticks (WSL and WSLR) are one of the simplest manipulation tools to transfer manual movements into vacuum systems. Wobble Sticks by UHV Design provide a modular design: WSL series enables a lateral/tilt movement through a robust hydroformed bellows adaptor and a linear push/pull motion through a magnetic coupling. Additionally, the WSLR series also provides continuous rotation. The magnetic coupling technology eliminates the need for edge-welded bellows. This reduces the risk of leaks and in doing so, improves the reliability of the system for sensitive applications.

Linear Translators and Aligners
Introduction
Linear translators (linear shift mechanisms) provide linear motion along the port axis (Z). Typical applications are the positioning of beamline filters, the adjustment of sputter sources and deposition stages including industrial applications. The translators are equipped with CF flanges, bakeable up to 250 °C and totally UHV compatible.
Bellow-sealed linear translators provide a smooth, precise motion by means of kinematically designed external leadscrew driven mechanism with anti-rotation and anti-deflection system. The rigid construction provides a high load capability.
The edge welded bellows are manufactured from stainless steel 316L and have a minimum design life of 10,000 cycles. Systems with a design life of up to 1 million cycles are available on request.

Y, XY, XYZ Translators
Introduction
UHV translators enable mechanical XYZ-movements in vacuum systems with different tilt angles, which are e.g. required in connection with probe analysis. 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). The British expert UHV Design, represented by VACOM, is specialised to build sophisticated manipulators for these applications by using different modular components.

XY Translators
Rotatable Axis MultiBase ManipulatorThe 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.
