Phototesting of different materials through vacuum, airflow, and laser

Phototesting of different materials through vacuum, airflow, and laser
This was a fun project as it involved a custom chamber with the following items: a front door, two airflow diffusers (inside plate with lots of holes), four spare ports, top hole and bottom hole with a gasket to allow for different specimen to be placed, clamped, and tested.

Our client did not tell us much about the details of the project, all we got were the design input requirements and a napkin sketch.

What you see is an acrylic vacuum test chamber. We still have no idea what this chamber is used for, we didn't dare to ask; but it doesn't matter because it was a fun and challenging project and we are happy we were able to help them out.

Stainless Steel Vacuum Chambers
Stainless Steel Vacuum Chambers are vacuum chambers made from stainless steel. The advantages of a Stainless Steel Vacuum Chamber are High Vacuum and a Wide Temperature Range of applications.
Piston Vacuum Pumps
Piston Vacuum Pumps are devices that generate a vacuum through the workings of an internal piston. Several advantages of a piston pump include, low maintenance, no oil mist emission since it’s an oil free vacuum pump – the shortcoming are not as high of vacuum levels and volumetric flow.
Our Work: Vacuum Testing of Lithium Ion Batteries, Thin Film, Fuel Cells, Supercapacitors, and Nano materials
This vacuum chamber is a modification to our basic acrylic vacuum chamber 12 inch, removable lid model; except that our customer requested additional ports and electrical feed-through for testing of electrical equipment under vacuum. You know, I wish we would have asked them for more details on what they were doing with this chamber; their short and concise answer was that they were using our chamber to perform scientific work on the subjects of: lithium ion batteries, thin films, fuel cells, super-capacitors, and nano-materials testing in a vacuum environment.

Bubble Leak Testing or Bubble Emission Testing is a procedure where leaks are visually detected and located through the emission of bubbles while the test specimen is submerged in water. In this article, we will talk about using an acrylic vacuum box as a leak detection device. We are also going to talk about the advantage, disadvantage, and the bubble leak emission test procedures.
