In 1958, Dr Willi Becker invented the first turbomolecular vacuum pump at Pfeiffer Vacuum+Fab Solutions – and set a new standard in vacuum technology. His innovation revolutionized vacuum generation, making it possible to achieve unprecedented conditions in the high and ultra-high vacuum range. His technology uses high-speed rotors to generate high, ultra-high, and even extremely high vacuum levels down to 10-11 hPa (mbar).

To function effectively, turbomolecular vacuum pumps – commonly known as turbopumps – must be operated in combination with backing pumps at their exhaust, which reduce the backing pressure from atmospheric to rough or medium vacuum. This combination is crucial in semiconductor manufacturing, scientific research, space exploration, and various industrial as well as analytical applications.


Modern chip tech wouldn't be possible without it, as would many laser applications.

Just think, before the vacuum cleaner itself was invented, carpets got cleaned once a year by hauling them outside at "spring cleaning" time, throwing them over a clothesline, and beating them manually with one of these.

I still clean mine that way.

How much money did Dr. Becker make off it? Employee-inventors must go on strike to get 50% of the value of corporate patents.

This paradise for plutocratic parasites is the modern version of Prometheus Bound.

How much money did Dr. Becker make off it?

All I can find on him.

Not much. He was still on the job in 1980.

Usually these engineers and scientists get credit for the inventions, but the companies keep the patents, and pay a token sum to the inventors. It's a shame; this was a key invention of the modern era and people never heard of the guy.

FIRST STAGE: SmartKids Being Treated Like Weirdos
SECOND STAGE: College Students Not Being Paid for Their Grades
THIRD STAGE: Corporate Patents

Since Diploma Dumbos (including mind-castrated High IQs) are incapable of making analogies, they miss the rational parallel with athletic talent. Superior minds should imitate the signing bonuses and high salaries of baseball players. Those athletes were incredibly underpaid for a hundred years before they finally unionized. The free market on salaries is a vicious lie by the plutocrats and the pleasant peasants who worship them.

Just like their heirs' Socialism that the Plutes pose as opposing, it is against human nature to be motivated when the reward is so tiny compared to the worth of the products of rare human genius. Society also has been cheated out of the benefits. A seed doesn't grow in sand.
