Vacuum Solutions and Systems for Scientific Research and Development by Leybold
Reliability, precision, and technological excellence — powering scientific progress

Modern scientific research demands unmatched cleanliness, process stability, and reproducibility. Vacuum technologies are an essential part of today’s laboratories, research institutes, and high-tech facilities — from ground-based experiments to space applications. Leybold, a global leader in vacuum technology, offers advanced systems tailored specifically for fundamental science, applied research, and experimental development.

At the forefront of research — UHV and cryogenic technologies
Fields like nanotechnology, particle physics, quantum optics, materials science, and space systems rely on ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions — where even a single contaminant molecule can distort experimental results. Such vacuum environments are critical for synchrotrons, electron microscopes, spectrometers, and other precision instruments.

Leybold systems provide vacuum levels down to 10⁻¹² mbar, using TURBOVAC turbomolecular pumps, COOLVAC cryopumps, and fully automated pumping stations. These solutions are built for long-term operation, with minimal vibration and seamless compatibility with sensitive scientific equipment.

Enabling space research and simulation
A striking example of Leybold's capabilities lies in simulating space environments. Thermal vacuum chambers are used to test satellites, sensors, materials, and electronics under conditions that mimic the vacuum and temperature extremes of outer space.

Leybold delivers complete solutions for these applications — from roughing stages to deep vacuum stabilization and thermal control. In high-stakes projects where years of preparation and millions in investment are involved, reliability is paramount.

Why top research institutions choose Leybold
Leybold solutions go beyond pumps — they are smart systems designed for full integration into research infrastructure, offering remote control, automation support, and compatibility with cleanroom standards. Core advantages include:

  • Ultra-high vacuum performance with zero contamination
  • Oil-free, energy-efficient operation
