Used ULTRATECH 1500 #9195910 for sale

ULTRATECH 1500 is a wafer stepper designed specifically for lithography applications in semiconductor manufacturing. The equipment is capable of producing high-resolution patterning on wafers up to 200 mm in diameter, allowing for the production of larger integrated circuits. With a step size of just 3 microns, 1500 is capable of generating intricate patterns and geometries with great precision and accuracy, allowing for the production of nanometer-scale features. Additionally, the system offers a reduction rate of up to 5:1, providing users with the ability to produce extremely small patterns, with features of less than 1 micron. ULTRATECH 1500 utilizes a 10:1 optical zoom unit to achieve the highest levels of exposure accuracy and precision. This is combined with laser interferometry to detect component position in all six degrees of freedom, meaning that all features can be aligned and positioned correctly on the wafer. The machine also employs a dual autofocus tool, improving the efficiency of alignment and positioning. 1500 makes use of advanced digital electronics and advanced software solutions, which enable users to produce highly efficient, custom-made exposure programs. These programs provide users with the ability to accurately control the parameters for each wafer, such as exposure force, speed, and focus. Additionally, the software provides users with batch processing capabilities, thus allowing the saving of time and money. ULTRATECH 1500 is designed to be highly reliable and stable, ensuring consistent performance over the lifespan of the machine. All the asset's components and functions are built to provide maximum uptime and uninterrupted operation throughout. Additionally, the model performs self-diagnostics with every cycle, allowing it to detect any possible issues, prior to exposure. Finally, 1500 is tailored for efficient operation and ease of maintenance. The equipment integrates a robotic wafer handling system, which simplifies loading and unloading, while the automated environmental controls ensure that the unit remains within optimal performance parameters. Additionally, the machine comes with service indications that inform technicians of any upcoming maintenance needs.
