Equipment

  • CAM lab: Data conditioning tools for machine control in manufacturing processes in clean rooms (for example punching data); plotting of photo masks
  • PCB technology: production of non-through-hole plated circuit boards based on FR-4
  • Thick film and LTCC technology: 60 m² clean room; preparation of printing screens; Processing of photo-sensitive thick film pastes (Fodel process), Laser machining
  • Assembly technology: solder paste stencil printing; SMD placement and reflow; Direct Chip Attach (wire bonding and Flipchip assembly); packaging of elements; encapsulation of components with dispenser (Glob Top or Underfill), vacuum soldering
  • Element analysis: X-ray structure analysis (2D and tomography) to study electrical packages (e.g. wire bonding)
  • Micro-ultrasound analysis to detect voids and delaminations
  • IR thermal imaging system: Automated thermal measurement of modules by means of infrared thermal imaging using an FLIR camera system (minimal pixel resolution 18 µm)
