Essemtec to Introduce its High Speed Jetter to North America at SEMICON West

The SEMICON West is the largest international trade show for semiconductor products, materials and services in the Americas. It is the premier event for the display of new products and technologies for microelectronics design and manufacturing. Essemtec will exhibit its Scorpion, one of the most modern and accurate dispensing systems.

The Scorpion fully automatic jetting system sets new standards in dispensing technology and improves overall equipment efficiency. Absolute throughput is maximized with piezo jetting valves which enable the jetting of fluids over a wide range of viscosity with speeds of up to 800 Hz. Wastage of expensive material is minimized with a fluid box of less than 150 nano liters. There is no tubing to connect the fluid to the jet valve and hence messy cleaning and maintenance operations are minimized.

Setting up new recipes is quick and easy with Essemtec’s brand new eDIS software which also offers context sensitive help. Point and touch features are intuitive to learn and programming of dots, lines or various shapes is a breeze, while CAD import is also supported. Processes are developed in no time thanks to a library of “best known parameters” for a wide range of common fluids.

The Scorpion is a highly versatile system and can be equipped with up to four valves or pumps, including jet valves, Archimedian screw valves, time pressure valves and slider valves to accommodate virtually all applications. These include encapsulation, dam-and-fill, underfill, LED cavity, conductive adhesive, solder paste, phosphor silicon cavity fill and many more.
