The Applications of Titanium Sublimation Pumps

Titanium Sublimation Pumps are used in a great many varying industries across the UK and the world. Originally an invention based on a scientific principle discovered in the 1950s the ion pump works by forcing molecules into a certain pattern, which a vacuum environment causes. It might sound quite convoluted and very specialist, but the ion pump is behind quite a lot of science behind things we use every single day.


 


Ion Pump Applications in the Medical Industry


Ever had an X-Ray? Then you’ve got up close and very personal with an Ion Pump. Ion Pumps create a vacuum environment and can be used to filter out particles from the other, and the subjection of this can allow light to behave very differently. Most people are more than aware that an X Ray is radiation – and an ion pump is used to intensify the X-Ray image into something that doctors and radiographers can actually read and examine, without any interference. The same concept is also used in MRI machines.




The Phone Industry


Telecommunications, should the Ion Pump never have been devised, telecommunications simply would not exist. The process of transmitting voice relies on the utilisation of Tunnelling Wave Tubes as well as Klystrons in order to transmit voice through radio waves. This has been used to make both civil and military telecommunication possible.



Defense Applications


The armed forces in the UK and beyond also make use of ion pumps in order to make very many things possible. Radar, whether ground-based or airborne, uses radio waves in order to work. Electronic countermeasures such as ECM radio jammers and radar blockers also use ion pumos. Smart weapons and electronic warfare, considered very much the future of soldiering use ion pumps in order to work, and missle guidance and seekers also utilise this.


There’s many more domestic uses of Ion Pumps as well. Several industrial processes make use of microwave tubes, such as heat treating, plastic welding, food processing and textile manufacturing to name but a few use ion pumps in order to work well.
