Used IONIC SYSTEMS Stressgauge II #9157321 for sale

IONIC SYSTEMS Stressgauge II is a wafer testing and metrology equipment specifically designed for the precision measurement of stress on both brittle and ductile materials. It utilizes a unique and patented strain gage technology that enables the user to accurately and reliably measure strain in multiple points on a sample wafer up to a maximum diameter of 200 mm. Stressgauge II's system is built on a vertical platform to maximize the precision of readings taken on a sample wafer. In addition, it includes a semi-automated stage for adjustable positioning that makes sample wafer adjustment straightforward. IONIC SYSTEMS Stressgauge II consists of several components that are essential in the accuracy of the measurements taken. Specifically, Stressgauge II includes a two-axis high resolution encoder, strain gages with Omnetics connectors, and an I/O panel that connects the unit to the test site. The encoder is mounted on the vertical platform and allows for the machine to monitor the position of the sample relative to the strain gages that are mounted on the rear bracket. The strain gages give readings of strain, tension, and compression with accuracy in the order of 10 με RMS. The I/O panel connects to the strain gages and communicates the readings back to the test site. The readings taken on a sample wafer are then taken and evaluated within IONIC SYSTEMS Stressgauge II software. The software includes algorithms, which analyze the readings, allowing the user to view strain distributions on screen for both single points and across areas on the sample wafer. Accurate strain distributions are then stored in the tool's internal memory until they are exported to a computer or submitted online for evaluation. In addition to strain measurements, Stressgauge II also has the capability to measure temperature on a sample wafer with a accuracy of 0.1°C. Measurements of temperature are done using a separate sensor that is mounted along with the strain gages on the rear bracket. In this sense, IONIC SYSTEMS Stressgauge II offers a reliable way of gathering data related to both strain and temperature on a sample wafer, all in a single platform. Overall, Stressgauge II is a powerful metrology asset for the precision measurement of stress on brittle and ductile materials. Its unique strain gage technology and semi-automated stage for adjustable positioning make precise readings of both strain and temperature on a sample wafer fast and easy. The readings taken on a sample wafer are accurately and reliably analyzed within the model's software to provide strain distributions for a variety of applications.
