Virgin Powder Repress

Depending on the target geometry, a spent target can be repressed up to ten times before the noble metal backer would need to be fully reclaimed. This repressing process can lead to cost savings on noble metal powder of up to 50%.

Experience Unmatched Quality and Performance

Key Features of Our Virgin Powder Repress (VPR) Service

High-Density Target Manufacturing

Our VPR service produces high-density, high-quality sputtering targets utilizing spent target backers in a unique manufacturing process.

Vacuum Hot Press Technology

Applying heat and uniaxial pressure in a vacuum hot press furnace for superior target formation.

Noble Metal Target Production

Our VPR services is specialized in manufacturing noble metal sputtering targets.

About (VPR) Virgin Powder Repress

When sputtering is the preferred coating technique for manufacturing, the high cost of noble-metal powder, combined with the low utilization of planar sputtering targets (15%-30%), makes the target one of the costliest factors within the process. Our process produces a high-density target with an interface between the original target and additional powder that does not inhibit the sputtering process. We have found that, depending on target geometry, a spent target backer can be repressed up to ten times before the noble metal backer would need to be fully reclaimed. This repressing process can lead to cost savings on noble metal powder of up to 50%.
