Nordson MARCH's AP series of vacuum plasma treatment systems includes batch units with small, mid-size and large vacuum chamber options that deliver process correlation, controller continuity and reliable, reproducible vacuum gas plasma treatment to customers as they expand from an R&D environment to various levels of production
The AP-300 plasma system delivers exceptionally uniform plasma cleaning and treatment for semiconductor, microelectronic packaging and assembly, and medical device manufacturing.
Plasma Treatment Equipment Features and Benefits
PLC controller with touch screen provides an intuitive graphical interface and real time process representation
Flexible shelf architecture allows processing of a wide variety of part carriers in either direct or downstream plasma mode
13.56 MHz RF generator has automatic impedance matching for unparalleled process reproducibility
Proprietary software control system generates process and production data for statistical process control
Batch style, each unit is completely self-contained, requiring minimal floor space
The pump, chamber, control electronics, and 13.56 MHz RF generator are housed in a single enclosure
The AP-300 system provides:
Durable high-quality aluminum construction and fixtures
Up to 7 removable and adjustable powered or grounded shelves for a wide range of piece-parts, components, and part carriers including magazines, trays, and boats
A compact, self-contained system chassis that houses the plasma chamber, control electronics, 13.56 MHz RF generator, and the automatic matching network (only the vacuum pump is external to the system)
An intuitive touch-screen control panel for real-time process monitoring
Convenient facility hook-ups for periodic calibration requirements used in validation processes
Support for a wide range of process gases including argon, oxygen, helium, and fluorinated gases
Maintenance access through an interlocked door or removable panels
Two standard electronic mass flow controllers for optimal gas control, with an option for two additional controllers (4 maximum)
Key Applications
Plasma cleaning
Surface activation
Adhesion improvement
