IONAUTICS

Ionautics was founded in 2010, by Johan Ahlström CEO, Ulf Helmersson, and Daniel Lundin CTO, and is a Swedish deep tech company. With our extensive expertise in the HiPIMS technology we develop and produce both soft- and hardware that function as the core components in a deposition system. We like to think of the deposition system as a human body and of our products as the heart and brain.

Hipster 1

Our HiPSTER HiPIMS units are designed by experts in the field with an excellent track record of plasma process development and thin film deposition in order to generate robust and repeatable HiPIMS processes. With the new ultra-fast switching technology and extended HiPIMS pulse control the HiPSTER is a perfect tool when developing and running state-of-the-art HiPIMS processes. Also, upgrading your existing magnetron system to HiPIMS has never been easier.

Hipster Sync

Capable of synchronizing all HiPIMS and bias units in the HiPSTER series for the ultimate HiPIMS experience. The HiPSTER synchronization unit allows the user to control the pulsing of up to eight HiPSTER HiPIMS powersupplies, compatible HiPSTER bias units, or compatible diagnostic hardware. This enables, for example, pulse trains synchronized between multiple units, or synchronized and delayed pulses. For increased flexibility, the HiPSTER synchronization unit can be triggered externally.
