Traditionally, companies can only be sustainable if they are innovative. The vacuum specialist Leybold succeeded with its combination of tradition and innovation over the course of its history.

Leybold has developed two new online tools to assist customer’s pump choice and layout of complete vacuum systems: The Pump Finder and the calculation tool LEYCALC. With these new web-based tools, users can select and build their vacuum solutions online.

The completely newly developed, 100 percent oil-free screw vacuum pump Novadry ensures significantly greater safety and efficiency in food and packaging processes.

The latest addition to the industrial dry pump portfolio is the Dryvac DV 200 and DV 300. These pump sizes complement the already existing product range of Dryvac 450, 650 and 1200 and offer the same user benefits for applications requiring smaller sizes.This series of dry compressing screw-type vacuum pumps is engineered for the new era of smart manufacturing.

Leybold Managing Director Johan Van der Eeken and Project Manager Stephan Hohenadl today handed over a donation cheque for 5,930 Euros to Eva Heemann and Cemre Altinsoy for the employee initiative `Water for All´. Since 1984, Water for All has supported projects that provide people in need with access to clean drinking water, sanitation and hygiene.

Short, reliable and clean production processes are more important than ever for the increasingly digital and globally active value chains, in addition to high- quality results. Vacuum technology provides a significant contribution to meeting these requirements. Leybold has designed the new VARODRY vacuum pump series for efficient industrial vacuum processes.

ETH Zurich students have won the SpaceX competition of US entrepreneur Elon Musk with their Swissloop concept against thousands of other teams.

The use of vacuum in analytical technology and research and development is an essential factor that enables modern applications, for example in the field of measuring instruments. The selection of suitable equipment and the associated vacuum components is therefore crucial for success in laboratories. Since 1850, Leybold has been a partner of customers who have dedicated themselves to research. With innovative products such as the new EcoDry plus dry compressing vacuum pump, this company tradition is continuing into the future, and Leybold has received an award recognizing this.

After 15 years, Leybold is launching the Phoenix 4, a new family of helium leak detectors to meet the increasing quality requirements.
