Used IPEC / WESTECH / SPEEDFAM Avanti 472 #293738318 for sale

IPEC / WESTECH / SPEEDFAM Avanti 472 is a fully automated single-wafer grinding, lapping and polishing equipment that offers complete processing capability with minimal operator input. The system incorporates advanced robotics to load and unload wafers, as well as deliver wafer discs to and from the component vessels. This helps to reduce processing time, improve repeatability and increase unit efficiency. IPEC Avanti 472 provides an unbeatable combination of top-level performance, precision, and flexibility, with industry leading features and options, giving users the ability to customise their machine to fit their specific application requirements. The 472 has been developed for grinding, lapping and polishing operations with any type of metal or ceramic (i.e. silicon, aluminium, or diamond) wafer materials. To facilitate these operations, the tool features a large selection of grinding and polishing tools including discs, flexible polishing dogs, fixed diamond polishers, along with a variety of custom grinding and polishing heads. The 472 also boasts a range of optional extras to further enhance its capabilities, such as an automated wafer monitoring asset, an inspection handle, a wafer orientation tool, and a liquid crystal display which provides a real-time monitoring of process results. The model is made up of three main areas: the wafer grinder, the lapping plate and the polisher, each designed to optimise particular applications. The grinder allows for a controlled and accurate grinding process, while the lapping plate is ideal for achieving a uniform surface finish. The polisher then produces a smooth, polished surface with a high-gloss finish. The equipment also features a unique CNC robotic transfer agent, which not only reduces manual handling, but also allows for tight control of the grinding process. The robotic wheel accurately positions the wafer in the grinding wheel and the pressure and speed can be adjusted to improve overall precision and repeatability. This advanced robotic feature is especially beneficial when processing large numbers of wafers quickly and accurately. The 472 is designed for high-quality performance. From the automated wafer handling system to the precise grinding, lapping and polishing of wafers, the entire unit is built for reliability and repeatability. With low maintenance and easy operation, WESTECH Avanti 472 ensures that users are able to achieve consistent and superior results, every time.
