Facilities
2,000 sq m of covered workshops plus 1,000 sq m of open-air washing area, equipped for the full vacuum production chain.
Two communicating facilities, one chain.
Beside its engineering offices, Alca Technology organises its covered area into two main communicating production facilities: the production area itself and the area dedicated to assembly and testing, completed by an independent clean room and an external equipped washing area.
The workshop
Spaces built around vacuum quality.
Production area
Welding workstations with fume extraction, grinding dust exhauster and 10 ton overhead travelling cranes.
Assembly and testing area
About 1,000 sq m of clean, air-conditioned area with dustproof resin flooring, overhead and jib cranes.
Clean room
Independent over-pressurised dust-free room with pocket filters, with certified cleanliness level on request.
Washing area
1,000 sq m of external equipped facilities dedicated to the washing of components.
Vacuum test equipment
Helium mass spectrometers, pumping units and ion pumps for leak detection and functional tests.
Offices and engineering
Design offices working with the main 3D drawing and calculation software packages.
Test equipment
Everything needed to certify a vacuum.
Vacuum and functional tests performed entirely in-house.
01
Helium leak detection
Three helium mass spectrometers with a maximum sensitivity of 2×10-12 mbar l/s.
02
Pumping units
Trolley units with rotary and turbomolecular pumps down to 8×10-8 mbar with full range gauges, primary units for large volumes and a 500 l/s ion pump reaching 10-10 mbar.
03
Bake-out and recording
Heating cables and insulating mattresses for baking cycles, with multiple channel recorders logging pressure, temperature and background noise.
04
Furnaces and fittings
Degassing furnace for small chambers, vacuum brazing furnace, plus flanges, fittings, bellows and valves for vacuum and baking tests.
Capacity
Sized for large systems.
3,000 sq m
Total production footprint: 2,000 covered plus 1,000 of equipped washing area.
10 ton cranes
Overhead travelling cranes in both areas, with jib cranes for assembly.
