Used ASML 5000 / 50 #69343 for sale

ASML 5000 / 50 is a high-tech wafer stepper used for a variety of tasks within the semiconductor industry. This device is an important component for the production of integrated circuits, or computer chips. The stepper uses a highly specialized optics system to scan wafers one layer at a time. Each scan is then precisely aligned with the preceding layer, allowing for layer-by-layer assembly of the processor from wafers. This system utilizes a micro-accelerated glass lens and galvanometric mirror, which ensures extremely accurate placement of photomasks. When a micro-accelerated glass lens is activated, it automatically swivels between two points and casts a single light beam onto a particular area of the wafer. The galvanometric mirror then reads the coordinates of the wafer, allowing the light beam to be directed precisely where it needs to go. This process repeats each and every time a layer is scanned. ASML 5000/50 is also equipped with a heated stage, which provides more efficient layer scanning by keeping the wafer at an even temperature. This helps reduce the thermal expansion of the wafer, which in turn helps reduce distortion of the finished product. The device also has a built-in overlay alignment function, which allows for precise overlay alignment between the photomasks. This alignment is essential to ensuring the accuracy of the finished product, as it must have components that line up perfectly with the one before it. 5000 / 50 is equipped with a variety of safety features, including a liquid nitrogen filling port. This feature prevents the transmission of foreign particles throughout the system, ensuring the cleanliness of the device. Finally, 5000/50 also comes with a built-in Clean-In-Place (CIP) feature, which minimizes the need for manual cleanings. This effectively reduces the number of manual hours needed to maintain the machine, while also minimizing the risk of the introduction of contaminates due to the manual process. ASML 5000 / 50 is a powerful and highly specialized device that is essential to the production of cutting-edge computer chips. It performs a variety of important tasks, from layer-by-layer assembly to highly accurate alignment of photomasks. On top of that, it is also equipped with a variety of features that ensure the safety and efficiency of the device.
