Turbomolecular pump

A turbomolecular pump is a device used to create very low-pressure environments, often in scientific and industrial applications. It works by rapidly spinning blades or rotors inside a vacuum chamber, which collide with gas molecules, effectively pushing them out and reducing the pressure. This method allows for extremely clean, high-vacuum conditions necessary for delicate processes like semiconductor manufacturing or research experiments. The pump operates efficiently in the high vacuum range and is usually used alongside other pumps to achieve and maintain ultra-high vacuum levels.
