Used BLANCHARD 11D-20 #9117353 for sale

BLANCHARD 11D-20 Wafer Grinding, Lapping & Polishing machine is an automated processor for production planned precision optical processing for wafers and other optical products. It is designed for the efficient grinding, lapping, and polishing of a wide variety of materials such as glass, sapphire, and crystalline substrates. The equipment has the capability to process large wafers up to 20" in diameter, and with a 72" swing radius, ensuring that both single and double-sided grinding, lapping, and polishing are possible. 11D-20 utilizes a segmented metal bond grinding wheels to remove unwanted surface irregularities while protecting the wafer from overheating and surface damage. BLANCHARD 11D-20 is capable of achieving high-precision processing down to a nanometer level. The system has a high-performance CNC controller for beautiful grinding results with vertical and horizontal compensation. 11D-20 provides a wide range of precision grinding and polishing options including flat, edged, and chamfered edges, and multiple polishing head systems that allow the machine to polish substrates of differing thicknesses. BLANCHARD 11D-20 has a user-friendly Human Machine Interface (HMI) that allows the operator to intuitively interact with the machine. An intuitive graphical navigation menu gives operators control of process parameters and helps them review results. 11D-20 is designed to ensure precision performance with accurate speed control, real-time status monitoring, and programmable operating routines that users can customize for different applications. BLANCHARD 11D-20 also has an integrated vacuum unit to secure the wafer during the grinding and polishing process. In addition, the machine has an integrated safety tool that prevents the machine from starting in an unsafe position and automatically shuts down in case of an emergency. 11D-20 is a versatile, precise and powerful wafer grinding, lapping, and polishing asset. With its advanced features, reliable performance, and ease of use, BLANCHARD 11D-20 is an excellent machine for any optical processing application.
