Used NSC ES 371 #9134047 for sale

NSC ES 371 is a high-end, bench-top model etcher / asher systems, designed for use in the fabrication and assembly of mixed-signal microelectronics. The equipment functions as both a black-and-white chemical etcher and an asher, able to process a variety of materials such as glass, glass ceramic, aluminum, nickel, platinum, and various oxide material. Because of the system's etching/ashing capabilities, ES 371 can be used to create the most intricate of features onto a given substrate with a high level of precision. The unit comes with a suite of high-end features, such as remote diagnostics, height monitoring, and platen area detection, that help ensure the production of smooth and precise etched/ashed substrates. The software that drives NSC ES 371 utilizes a graphic user interface (GUI) that allows for easy setup and control, of even the most complex operations. In addition, ES 371 features load-and-go cassette loading, step-by-step cycle controls, password protection, and multiple material program storage. The hardware of NSC ES 371 consists of a compact benchtop frame with an enclosed vacuum chamber, an electroplating chuck, a thermoelectric cooler, a power supply, and a masking housing designed to contain wafers during the etching/ashing process. The electroplating chuck is pressure-controlled and temperature-controlled to ensure a perfectly smooth substrate surface is etched or ashed. Additionally, ES 371 machine utilizes an integral automatic-sensing feedback loop to monitor process parameters and adjust the warm-up and cool-down times accordingly to ensure consistency in product quality, regardless of the starting substrate temperature. Such automatic control ensures the etching/ashing of substrates is as quick and efficient as possible. Overall, NSC ES 371 is an ideal etcher/asher tool for the fabrication and assembly of mixed-signal microelectronics due to its compact size, high-end features, and advanced control.
