This background enabled a very different view of how to design a chamber. During the last 22 years of continuous operation, we have seen our equipment installed all over America and in 24 countries. Our designs for the chamber and support systems have evolved over the years and offer the widest range of options available anywhere to suit the specific needs of an incredible range of applications, inks and coatings. We are nothing if not adaptable and always willing to consider new challenges.
