Gerling Applied Engineering, Inc. (GAE) was founded in 1997 - today, a staff of engineering- and application-professionals offer unparalleled expertise in microwave design and development. Our customers stemming from leading semiconductor tool OEMs, major universities, research institutes and national laboratories to multi-national corporations value our support.
If you want to take a big leap into the future, let’s start today.
GAE utilizes an array of resources to assist customers with special equipment needs. Unique applications often require waveguide component configurations that cannot be met using standard off-the-shelf products. Whether for single item or OEM quantities, we pride ourselves on our ability to produce quality, high performance custom components within the shortest lead times in the industry.
Complete specifications with CAD drawings are always delivered for customer approval prior to fabrication. Recent custom designs include:
GAE has always been involved in the development of revolutionary microwave appliances. Major appliance manufacturers utilize our expertise to design, manufacture and test prototypes of consumer and commercial products to reduce the strain on their in-house development resources.
Specific areas of development expertise include:
3-Port Circulators
A unique and cost effective service performed exclusively by GAE is the repair and refurbishment of 3-port circulators. Most failures are due to arcing or water leaks and can be repaired at roughly half the cost of a new circulator. Most WR284 models manufactured by Genesys Systems, Gerling Moore, ASTeX/Gerling Laboratories (AGL), Merrimac and Waveline, as well as all models manufactured by GAE, can be repaired and reused meeting original factory specifications.
Dual Directional Couplers
In addition to circulator repair, GAE offers directional waveguide coupler calibration services using equipment calibrated to and methods consistent with NIST standards. This service applies to almost all couplers in WR284, WR340 and WR430 waveguide. Couplers manufactured by Genesys Systems, Gerling Moore, Gerling Laboratories (AGL) and GAE are also accepted for repair.
GAE is a key supplier of products and services relating to microwave heating equipment to high technology industries such as semiconductor manufacturing. Our expertise in microwave generators and waveguide components is well recognized by major OEMs through the services we provide for microwave equipment manufacturing, refurbishment, testing and calibration.
All repairs and refurbishments performed by GAE include a complete functional performance verification to meet original factory specifications, with comprehensive test data provided to the customer. GAE maintains an inventory of magnetrons and other components used in magnetron heads to ensure the fastest possible delivery. All these services go with the same warranty as provided by the original manufacturer. You can be assured of no change in your process, and the savings in maintenance costs are indeed significant!
OEM Generators and HV Power Supplies Many of the microwave generators and power supplies used in GaSonics (now part of Lam) etchers and ashers are among the "GL139" family of products made by ASTeX and it's former subsidiary AGL (ASTeX/Gerling Labs). GAE's background with these products allows us to provide ongoing service and support at a level that far exceeds the capabilities of ANY other company today. Services range from simple calibration and alignment to complete repair and refurbishment, with guaranteed performance and reliability. GAE also offers users of these products the capability to perform their own diagnostics to help determine the cause of failure and disposition the unit for repair. Once the issue is identified, GAE can provide new and/or refurbished replacements for any part in any of the GL139 style units.
Magnetron Heads A recent addition to our list of services is the repair and refurbishment of magnetron heads manufactured by ASTeX and its former subsidiary, ASTeX/Gerling Laboratories (AGL). These magnetron heads are used in semiconductor manufacturing tools manufactured by Applied Materials, Lam Research and others.
