Used BOC EDWARDS 200XP #9200393 for sale

BOC EDWARDS 200XP is an ion milling equipment designed for precision machining. It utilizes a controlled ion beam to gently remove material from a surface, layer by layer. The system is computer-controlled and allows for quick and easy setup, as well as high-precision operation. 200XP employs two rotating milling heads to uniformly remove material from the surface. The heads can be adjusted to provide uniformity in the desired thickness of the sample while the unit's control software allows for control of the speed and accuracy of the milling. The machine is best suited for material removal of semiconductor devices, such as integrated circuits. It is also suitable for removing material on other surfaces that are sensitive to surface damage, such as thin film coating. BOC EDWARDS 200XP can be used to prepare samples for scanning electron microscopy analysis, and can also be employed to precision orbitally polish surfaces. 200XP utilizes a microwave-powered ion gun to generate the ions necessary for the milling process. These ions are then accelerated via electrostatic fields and directed towards the surface of the sample at speeds up to 150 m/s. The tool ensures the uniformity of the sample removal by using a rotating stage, which eliminates the incidence of surface damage from overlapping ion impacts on the sample. BOC EDWARDS 200XP is equipped with a cryogenic particle/ion trap which is used to trap other particles present in the ion beam other than the milling ions. This helps protect the sensitive sample from the contaminants, which would otherwise cause additional damage. The asset also employs a mass spectrometer for monitoring the particles present within the ion beam. The model is best suited for high precision machining of sensitive materials. It's reliability, as well as its ability to produce uniform results, make it a preferred choice in the semiconductor industry. The equipment is also ideal for other applications where precision machining of materials without surface damage is required.
