Used CANON PLA 501 #9259719 for sale

CANON PLA 501 Mask Aligner is a piece of photolithography equipment used in the fabrication of microelectronic devices. It utilizes a vacuum chuck and mask process to rapidly and accurately align and exposing patterns to thin films on the substrate. CANON PLA-501 is a cost-effective addition to a production line as it provide precision alignment and good feature consistency. This aligner is suitable for up to 4 inches of substrate or 9 by 10.5-inch pieces with a 1.25-inch gap and a focus range of 8.5 mils. CANON PLA 501mask aligner utilizes high resolutionservo-controlled stepper motors and dual encoders to achieve precise pattern alignment. It is comprised of two main components, the main body and the vacuum head with optical alignment optics and micro- aligner. The main body houses the vacuum chuck, mask alignment aperture, and exposure lamps. The vacuum head is used to secure the substrate and to move the mask into position for precise alignment. The head is attached to the base of the machine and the mask is aligned in the plane by using an optical alignment magnification system. The exposure system of PLA 501 Machine consists of multiple lamps and a controller to adjust the amount of exposure at predetermined settings. The exposure lamps are mounted on slider blocks which allow for easy adjustment of the exposure. The exposure controller determines the exposure time by measuring the intensity of the beam and generating the exposure output. It also allows for the programing of exposure compensation and the selection of manual or auto exposure modes. PLA-501 Machine is a relatively small piece of equipment— its dimensions are only 26.77" W x 26.77" D (including the vacuum head) and its weight is just 59lbs, and it can fit into a 6' footprint. The machine is also UL-60079-1 certified for safety and is designed to provide the necessary protection for even the most sensitive substrates. CANON PLA 501 Machine is powered by CANSCAN— a proprietary software developed by CANON. It provides the interface to control the system's functions, including: mask layout, substrate selection, exposure parameters adjustment, alignment via automatic and manual modes, and the display numerically calculated, pre-set and programmable exposure doses. Overall, CANON PLA-501 Mask Aligner is a compact, cost-effective, and easy to use tool that offers precision alignment and good feature consistency. It is UL-60079-1 certified for safety and is compatible with CANSCAN, which makes it an ideal machine for microelectronic device production.
