S-Cube Essential
When new equipment needs to be added, modularity allows easier integration of chambers into overall system design.
Our team sorts out integration issues before equipment arrives on site for installation
Features
- The essential version includes tailored mechanical parts without a control system, vacuum pump or control valves.
- Various kinds of accessories are available with the design or on demand.
- On-site assembly by our company, or customer assembly using an instruction manual.
S-Cube Automatic
Chamber behaviour can be predefined by the programmable logic controller (PLC). The PLC controls the vacuum pump and lighting, evaluates temperature and signals from pressure gauges, and much more
Features
- The PLC automatically manages components to ensure machine function.
- Changes in viewport coloured lights reflect changes inside the chamber.
- Systems from other companies can be integrated, allowing multiple systems to function at the same time at no extra cost.
- Fixed buttons or touch screens are available for the user interface.
S-Cube Web Browser
While working with fragile materials or limited samples, tracking of vacuum parameters allows for better process control. The programmable logic controller (PLC) can be managed via a web browser which can be opened on any device with an access code and WiFi connection
Features
- Different process modes reduce errors and make everyday work easier.
- Good quality visualizations show the most important data and an easy-to-use interface regulates processes inside the vacuum chamber.
- History and saved results can be exported for future analysis or reporting.
- The custom-made interface can be programmed.
S-Cube Embedded Solution
Our custom control embedded system suitable for complex assemblies allows equipment to work in conjunction with other systems. The programmable logic controller (PLC) is controlled by a custom-made PC program which can run on a server and can be integrated into the customer’s network
Features
- A pre-developed program which runs on command and comprehensively manages the entire process.
- Remote administration of the control process allows status verification from a different building inside the company network.
- Integration and communication with other systems can be managed.

FAQ
You may still have some questions
3D model is for now not generated for each configuration. We will send you 3D model in step format after sending an inquiry of configured chamber. We can also offer you a design study in which we will create an optimal design solution to your vacuum system.
Based on your inquiry we will send you a 3D model and a drawing with your configuration. You can easily specify positions of your flanges into this drawing.
There is a difference in allowable number of operating cycles based on used material. Maximum allowable number of load cycles is affected by sizes of the chambers more than used material.
Standard accuracy of flanges is better than 0.5mm in the chamber total coordinate system. This accuracy can be improved by 0.2mm by an integration of optional accurate pins.
Minimal dimension of the chamber is 400 mm. Maximal dimension is depended on wall thicknesses, but custom made chambers can be long up to 6 meters. We are flexible and we can offer custom solutions.
Chambers of the same size can be connected in multiple directions with no limitations. You can create a row, L shape or even connect four chambers into square or eight into cube. Limitations are in connection of chambers with different sizes.
The render view in the configurator is only for illustration. We will send an accurate render based on the configuration and your inquiry. This render will be at close degree accurate and improves upon consultation with the client. Configurator serves as communication tool between our team and clients. It allows to recognize problematic issues early and make communication efficient.
Prices are set on an individual requirements of customers and complexity of design.
No, it’s not possible to purchase S-Cube online. To be sure that we took into consideration all the necessary details before placing an order, our team will get in touch with you and will prepare a comprehensive calculation on the basis of configured request.
Calculation will set out the preliminary terms for a purchase order.
We understand how getting fast feedback is important for you, that is why right after receiving of your request our team will get in touch with you. Depending on complexity of configured chamber we will send you our offer from 1 to 14 days.
Because we begin processing your request immediately, it is better to make amendments to your request within a short time from sending a request. We recommend to contact our team on the following e-mail address scube@streicher-machinery.cz and they will help you out.
Manufacturing time depends on complexity of project. Our team pays special attention to planning of schedule in order to make sure that you get your product in time. A rough estimation on manufacturing time after finished design is 10-14 calendar weeks. S-CUBE Universal is available on Stock in the most used sizes 400, 600 and 800 mm.

S-CUBE can use FKM (Viton) o-rings with vacuum permeation dominant at level 5×10-8 mbar, and this is a limit vacuum for our system. We are also offering variants with double o-rings on doors with vacuum between grooves for improved permeation. CF flanges can be also made on stainless steel panels. Normal operating vacuum for standard S-CUBE chamber with single elastomer sealings is 1×10-7 mbar.
Surface outgassing is a more common vacuum limit for most systems and standard TVAC chambers with complex surfaces have a limit vacuum at 1×10-6 mbar.
Most of the times we manufacture stainless-steel frame and aluminum removable panels. This is a suitable material combination regarding costs and usability. We also manufacture an all-aluminum version of the S-CUBE due to its lighter weight. Rarely, we manufacture fully stainless-steel chambers as the solution is quite heavy. It is preferable to manufacture a custom made welded stainless-steel chamber.
The cube chamber is chosen when the chamber function exceeds the target chamber weight. Cylindrical chamber is often lighter, but the cube chamber has more usable space. Manufacturing cost difference between a cylindrical and a cube chamber is often small with respect to complex vacuum applications. STREICHER can supply chambers with various shapes to fit the process.

What would you say to someone who asked about us?
Emil and the team were incredibly professional. They took the time to really understand our requirements and generated a design that fit them.
My best regards to you and your team. Thank You again for your support, I hope to be ordering a second chamber sometime in the coming year.
What was your impression of the S-Cube?
We were looking for a modular vacuum chamber for our research department. The S-Cube, being a modular system, seemed to offer exactly what we needed for our project. A high quality, good looking and easy-to-modify vacuum system.
What problem you wanted to solve with our product?
Industrial machines for additive manufacturing are often designed to last for a long period of time. They are not meant to be modified. In research however, we are often faced with rapidly changing technologies that need to be implemented and tested in our test rigs . We need to be able to rapidly adapt our system without having to build a whole new machine. The modularity of the S-Cube offers exactly that.
What would you say to someone who asked about us?
The experience we had during the meetings and the written exchange with the company was really positive. The response time was short and the interest in our project was high. It is a real pleasure to cooperate with such a company.

What was your impression of the S-Cube?
In general, the S-cube system is very well designed and performs as advertised. As we said above it is the one that stands out in the lab !
What problem you wanted to solve with our product?
The goal was to be able to reach high vacuum inside the chamber to accommodate for a high intensity laser system. The chamber had to be isolated from the breadboard to minimize vibrations and the design had to ensure that frequent venting; opening and closing would not misalign the complex beam path inside.
As of today, the laser system has not yet be added. Given the performances of the vacuum we are not worried that the performances will be met.
What would you say to someone who asked about us?
We would highly recommend Streicher !
