Nordson ASYMTEK Introduces New Spectrum S-920N-C Stainless Steel Cleanroom Dispenser

Scalable Dispensing Solution for High-Precision, Cleanroom Microelectronics Manufacturing

CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nordson ASYMTEK, a leader in dispensing, coating, and jetting technologies, introduces its S-920N-C stainless steel dispensing system that is third-party certified for Class 100 cleanroom use. It is specifically designed for applications that are extremely sensitive to contamination by submicron-sized particles, such as wafer-level packaging and disk drive assembly. Film-frame or bare-wafer handling can be added for integrated material loading and unloading.

The S-920N-C system’s stainless steel enclosure has a passivated finish for easy wipe-down. Its high-flex electrical cables are enclosed in a cleanroom-certified jacket that reduces particulation and outgassing. The HEPA filter provides a downward particle-free air column within the dispense area, and the machine interior is positively pressurized. All pneumatic valves are exhausted to a duct for connection to a house vacuum to avoid particle emissions into the cleanroom.

The S-920N-C features technologically advanced and integrated software and hardware control that reduces process variation, increases yield, and reduces cost. Calibrated Process Jetting (CPJ) automatically maintains volumetric repeatability during long production runs, while Controlled Process Heat (CpH™) adds recipe-controlled heat management for improved thermal efficiency with faster temperature ramp.

A digital vision system with dual-color, adjustable on-axis lighting offers fast and reliable image acquisition for increased throughput. Adding the Fids-on-the-Fly™ option accelerates fiducial capture, and laser height sensing further reduces time spent on non-dispense routines.

The scalable S-920N-C can be configured with single or dual lanes and up to six heat stations with the dual lane configuration. Its small footprint maximizes cleanroom floor space utilization and lowers cost of ownership. The platform is easily upgraded as needs change.

Visit the Nordson ASYMTEK engineers in the Premtek booth #588 at SEMICON Taiwan, being held from September 8-10, 2010 at the Taipei World Trade Center, Taipei, Taiwan, for more information about the S-920N-C cleanroom dispensing system.
