About Leybold
Leybold GmbH was founded by Ernst Leybold in Cologne in 1850, based in Cologne as part of Swedish industry group Atlas Copco, celebrating its 175th anniversary in 2025. The company’s core competencies are development of components and systems for generation of vacuum and gas management engineering. Leybold provides forevacuum pumps and turbomolecular pumps including oil-free ECODRY plus multi-stage roots pump with extremely low vibration for quantum computing applications. Quantum computing requires components chilled to near absolute zero whilst others stored in ultra-high vacuum (UHV). Leybold COOLPOWER range Gifford-McMahon closed-cycle coldheads enable faster pumping to UHV, and PHOENIX range represents most innovative leak detection technology meeting accuracy and speed requirements of quantum research. Leybold serves quantum computing research laboratories and manufacturers requiring ultra-high vacuum environments and precision leak detection for quantum processor fabrication and operation.
2025 Developments: The company continues to advance its quantum hardware capabilities throughout 2025. Ongoing research and development efforts focus on improving qubit performance and scalability. The organization maintains active collaboration with research institutions and industry partners.
