Vacuum Chambers & Components

Since 2015, SAES has been at the forefront of designing and manufacturing mechanical components for High Vacuum (HV), Ultra-high Vacuum (UHV), and Extreme High Vacuum (XHV) environments. This capability stems from:

• A long-standing expertise in advanced vacuum pumping technologies and NEG-based solutions
• A deep understanding of end-user requirements to achieve target vacuum pressures within limited space constraints
• The ability to engineer customized vacuum solutions that optimize performance and enhance user experience

The strategic acquisition of SAES RIAL Vacuum , a company renowned for its excellence in the design and production of ultra-clean vacuum chambers, has significantly strengthened SAES’s offering. By combining expertise in complex vacuum architecture with in-house NEG pumping integration, SAES is now a trusted partner for delivering turnkey vacuum systems tailored to the most demanding scientific and industrial applications.

At SAES, we manage the entire development process of custom vacuum chambers and systems, ensuring the highest performance and reliability at every stage. Our integrated approach includes:

• Pre-evaluation of technical feasibility, based on your vacuum specifications and spatial constraints
• Tailored design proposals aimed at enhancing the performance, efficiency, and integration of your vacuum system
• Engineering support for automation, assisting in the development of intelligent control systems for NEG-based pumping solutions and hybrid vacuum architectures

Thanks to this comprehensive workflow, SAES ensures smooth project execution—from concept to implementation—while optimizing system performance and long-term operability.

SAES vacuum chambers and integrated systems are designed to meet the most demanding requirements of high and ultra-high vacuum environments, across a wide range of advanced research and industrial applications, including:

• Dipole and wiggler chambers for particle accelerators
• Beam Position Monitors (BPM)
• Insertion devices and front ends for synchrotron radiation facilities
• Collimators and absorbers for beamline protection and control
• Integrated vacuum systems for high-luminosity photocathode electron sources
• Ultra-clean customized chambers for quantum computing and quantum optics
• Vacuum environments for superconducting magnets in advanced cryogenic systems

These applications benefit from SAES’s deep expertise in NEG technology, ultra-clean manufacturing processes, and precision engineering, delivering vacuum components with exceptional outgassing performance and system integration.
