SUMMARY:Register Now for Spring 2024 Foundations of Vacuum Science (8 & 16 Weeks)
DESCRIPTION:Please note that the MNT-EC Calendar is showing this as a one-day event but it is an 8 or 16-week course. Read on for contact and registration info below.\n \nNormandale Community College Spring 2024 Semester Vacuum and Thin Film Technology \n—Registration for Normandale’s spring semester 2024 classes is currently open.— \nNormandale Community College offers a program in Vacuum and Thin Film Technology that consists of college-level course work for educating the technical/technician workforce in vacuum technology.  The following vacuum technology (VACT) classes are being offered in the spring semester. \n  \nVACT 1010 “Foundations of Vacuum Science” (2 credits – NO prerequisite)\, delivered in a fully online\, asynchronous format. \n\nSection 01: 16-weeks (Monday\, January 8th – May 10th)\nSection 02: 8-weeks (Monday\, January 8th – March 1st)\nSection 03: 8-weeks (Monday\, March 11th – May 10th)\n\nVACT 1010 addresses the basic chemistry and mathematics concepts that are used in subsequent VACT courses.  VACT 1010 is appropriate for individuals who have not previously taken a chemistry course.  VACT 1010 is delivered in a completely online\, asynchronous format.  There are NO live class/lecture sessions to attend in a course delivered in a completely online\, asynchronous format; students access course content on their own time and complete assignments on a weekly schedule. \nCOSTS:  The cost of tuition and fees are waived for VACT 1010 provided a student registers to take the class for a grade.  The only out-of-pocket cost to take VACT 1010 is the cost of the course workbook (~$30).  Students can also register to audit VACT 1010.  The cost to audit VACT 1010 is ~$450. \nPlease contact Nancy.Louwagie@normandale.edu if you have any questions about Normandale’s Vacuum and Thin Film Technology program and the VACT classes being offered spring semester 2024 and how to register for classes! \nIf you are interested in other Vacuum and Thin Film Technology program courses\, ask Nancy at the above email. \n

SUMMARY:Lesker U Live – Free Webinar on Vacuum Pumps for High Vacuum Applications
DESCRIPTION:Vacuum Pumps for High Vacuum Applications\nThere is no one vacuum pump technology that can work from atmosphere down to high vacuum (pressures in the range of 10-6 Torr) and below. The achievement of low pressures in research or industrial vacuum systems requires a well-engineered combination of pumping technologies. The mechanisms to pump gases at high molecular densities are quite different from the techniques needed to move molecules once their numbers are substantially reduced. In this webinar we will discuss some of the measures required to achieve high vacuum and review the range of tools designed specifically to get to a low base pressure. Simple modeling will be introduced which will illustrate critical pressure ranges during pump down and system-specific characteristics that must be considered when determining pump down time and base pressures. The course will include details on the operating principles of rotary vane and dry scroll pumps\, as well as turbomolecular\, cryopumps\, and oil-based diffusion pumps required to reach high vacuum. \n\nDate: Thu\, Jan 18\, 2024 8:00 AM PST \n\nClick here to Register \nDuration: 1 Hour(s) \n\n\nExpert(s): Garrett Grenek \nGarrett Grenek oversees the Vacuum Process Solutions group at the Kurt J. Lesker Company. He is one of the Lesker Company’s leading experts in vacuum system design and modeling\, specializing in high and ultra high vacuum applications. With a background in Mechanical Engineering\, Mr. Grenek has spent the past 8 years consulting globally on a variety of vacuum processes\, from established production line upgrades and optimization to development of systems for leading edge research. Knowing the process extends beyond inception\, he is often heavily engaged in the product implementation\, support and training to ensure complete satisfaction. He recognizes that to most users\, achieving a vacuum environment is not the goal\, but only a means to an end\, and so his priority is make this easy\, so that together we can achieve our mission at Kurt J. Lesker Company of enabling technology for a better world. \n\n\n
