About our Process

Hermetic Systems LLC specializes in the development, design and manufacture of highly reliable, hermetic glass-to-metal sealed feedthrough components and solutions. Our products are used in a variety of technical disciplines, including aerospace, aviation, defense, automotive, oil and gas exploration, medical, industrial process control, and commercial applications.

Equipped with advanced computer aided design software tools, Hermetic Systems can produce glass sealing beads (preforms) of various composition, which accommodate even the most demanding of sealing requirements.

Complete hermetic assemblies consisting of single and/or multiple pin arrays, precision machined metal shells, and sealing glass beads are produced in-house, using controlled non-oxidizing atmosphere exothermic gas generator (Exo-Gas) furnaces.

Hermeticity of all finished products is tested using a state-of-the-art Helium mass spectrometer leak detector, that has been calibrated to a sensitivity level of 1x10E-11 Standard cc/sec.

Components and assemblies are subjected to rigorous cleaning standards, providing ideal surface conditions for subsequent plating processes. Hi purity Copper, Gold, Nickel, Titanium, and various other base metals or precious and semi-precious materials can be applied.

All components and finished parts are 100% inspected for form, fit, and function... Including hermeticity before shipping to our customers.
