Last Thursday our partner Plasus celebrated its 25th anniversary.
In addition to a large number of guests on site, over 70 guests also took part in the online presentations. After the official part, a typical Bavarian beer barrel tapping could not be missed and rounded off the official program.
We hope for further good business!
Our partner SCI pulled as part of their 20th anniversary celebration, the first Sputtering Components prototype end block out of storage and asked founder Dan Crowley (left) to reminisce about how he developed it back in 2001.
What motivated you to design your own end block?
“Working as the lead cathode maintenance technician at a glass manufacturer, I saw the potential of rotary cathodes and wanted to take the existing technology further. I had seen other companies’ attempts at making rotary cathodes work, trying to address the issues they had, and I thought I had better ideas and wanted to prove them out. So, with Barry Nudelman’s financial support and his contact network for selling sputtering targets for his company, Process Materials, I set out on my own”.
