Used ASML AT 1100 #293813215 for sale

ASML AT 1100 is a wafer stepper, a type of lithographic tool used in the semiconductor manufacturing process to transfer circuit patterns onto silicon wafers. It combines multiple optical functions into a single machine, such as exposure, alignment, imaging, and stage movements. It is an example of highly advanced micro lithography technology which provides superior results in terms of uniformity, precision, and speed. AT 1100 has a modular design enabling customers to rapidly configure and deploy a range of systems. It operates with a field size of up to 10x10mm, resulting in high productivity and precision for all types of wafers. The stepper's high-precision feature and the use of proprietary technologies by ASML guarantee a photographic resolution of smallest details of up to 0.17 micrometers. This enables customer to create smaller and faster nanodevices. ASML AT 1100 is equipped with a wide range of automated functions such as calibration, control of the cartridge, and motor drive. This leads to reductions in cost and time for setup and operations of the wafer stepper. It also allows for advanced control of any device parameters, called "imaging recipes". Imaging recipes are automated configurations of optical process parameters that are often adjusted between jobs, offering users more flexibility in the manufacturing process. In addition, AT 1100 features several safety features to ensure safe and reliable operation. Its high level of automation includes an emergency-stop system, with a brake that can stop the scanning motion along with any further motion within a few milliseconds of activation. The automatic start-up and safety systems mean that the machine can be monitored and operated remotely, even in highly sensitive environments. All in all, ASML AT 1100 wafer stepper is a powerful and reliable tool used in semiconductor production and research. Its modular design, high resolution capabilities, and automated functions make it highly efficient and cost effective, providing customers with a competitive edge in the production of advanced integrated circuits.
