    <p>Gabe,</p>

    </p>
    <p>You might want to consider Ferrotec (they own Temescal now) as
      well. We have been running the TLAB (a small batch evaporator
      suitable for a teaching cleanroom) for a year now with no
      problems. Happy to chat if you need more information.</p>

        We are in the process of procuring a new E-Beam evaporator and
        considering options from Kurt J. Lesker, AJA Internation, and
        Angstrom Engineering; the pricing between all three vendors is
        comparable. We have lots experience using and maintaining KJL
        and AJA systems, but do not have much exposure to Angstrom
        Engineering's systems. We are curious for other nanolabs
        experience with these tools, particularly from a maintenance
        prospective. We plan to use this tool for both metal and oxide
        depositions. Any feedback or thoughts on Angstrom's E-beam
        systems is very much appreciated! </div>
