Synthesium software is based on Tango technology and is extremely easy to extend with new hardware. All recipes and new hardware modifications can be done by using open-source tools or in python script.
The vacuum deposition system is controlled by industrial standard PC with installed MySQL Database for all data.
Synthesium can be installed and operated offline on separate PC in system simulation mode. This is very useful when users want to prepare and test recipes.
