Shutter actuators

Robust, high-duty cycle flux-switching solutions

Our shutter actuators are ideal for applications such as sputter sources, ion guns or viewport shutters. They are available in seven different sizes to match torque requirements for a range of applications.

Key Specifications

  • Adjustable sweep (30° - 170°)
  • Magnetically-coupled fail-safe design
  • No bellows or dynamic seals
  • Bakeable to 250°C
  • No backlash under low load
  • True UHV performance
