Used NIKON i8 #9033672 for sale

NIKON i8 is an automated wafer stepper from NIKON Metrology Inc. which offers enhanced level of accuracy, precision, and speed. It is designed for inspecting large substrates up to 8 inches in diameter. It is equipped with NIKON Metrology's patented on-site data analysis system, the iSPACE software, which is a comprehensive image-processing package. NIKON I 8 is available in two configurations: a standard unit for standard substrate-inspection applications, and an advanced unit for applications requiring high-precision measurements. I8 features NIKON Metrology's patented Dual-Gantry Design, which is made up of two powerful independent scanning X- and Z-axis drive systems. This design eliminates the need for coupling of the two axes and ensures repeatable and precise performance for perfectly parallel lines and curves. The Dual-Gantry Design also eliminates the mechanical adjustments normally associated with single-axis systems, providing greater efficiency and throughput. In addition to the Dual-Gantry Design, I 8 delivers the fastest image-to-image operation speed in its class. With its optimized scanning system, NIKON i8 moves quickly from pattern to pattern, providing speed, accuracy, and reliability for all substrate-inspection applications. Its Scanning Control X-Axis scanning speed reaches 10 mm/s, and the separate Z-axis motor can reach a Z-axis step accuracy rate of 0.02 μm. NIKON I 8 also features a peerless vision system, offering both low-magnification stereo microscopy and high-magnification inspection. The series is equipped with an Automated Focus Sensor, which can detect height variations and adjust the focusing accordingly. This feature, coupled with its interchangeable optics, provides a complete suite of metrology applications from 1 to 100X magnification. Equipped with the latest in pattern recognition and automated measurement, i8 stepper helps streamline and enhance the most complex substrate-inspection tasks. Its powerful software sustains the highest levels of quality control and efficiency, profitable operation, and error-free production. As the leader in automated wafer steppers, NIKON Metrology Inc. provides the most advanced solutions for substrate inspection. I 8 is a powerful piece of equipment suited for any application that requires accuracy, precision, and performance.
