MARCH, a Nordson company (NASDAQ:NDSN),
a global leader in plasma processing technology, announces the
introduction of its FlexTRAK®-SHS automated plasma treatment
system. The plasma system includes the 9.6-liter (585 in³) large-volume
F3-S process chamber that can be configured for larger strips or can
treat more strips per cycle, yielding higher throughput and increased
productivity for semiconductor and electronics packaging. Chinese

The FlexTRAK-SHS system’s advanced automation enables high-throughput
processing of lead frames, high-density substrates, and other strip-type
electronic components. The system handles simultaneous strip buffering
and plasma processing for higher chamber utilization. Advanced process
controls, interchangeable electrode configurations, and plasma modes
give ultimate application flexibility.
The plasma chamber of the FlexTRAK-SHS employs the same architecture and
technology as the smaller FlexTRAK platforms for a seamless transition
as production demands more capacity. It is capable of processes such as
surface cleaning, oxidation removal, organic contamination removal, and
surface activation. FlexTRAK-SHS is CE marked and meets SEMI S2/S8
(EH&S/Ergonomics) standards.
Key applications for plasma cleaning include:
-
Pre-wire bond plasma treatment on semiconductor package substrates and
lead frames - Pre-underfill plasma treatment on flip-chip packages
-
Pre-mold plasma treatment on semiconductor package substrates and lead
frames -
Plasma treatment of semiconductor package substrates and lead frames
for improved adhesion - Removal/reduction of oxidation on lead frames.
“FlexTRAK-SHS is the latest in Nordson MARCH’s TRAK® series
of automated plasma systems and is designed to fulfill our customers’
requirements to develop new processes to improve product performance and
increase productivity while reducing costs,” said Daniel Chir, product
line manager, Nordson MARCH. “Built upon MARCH’s patented plasma
technology, the FlexTRAK-SHS is our most advanced automated plasma
system, increasing productivity to new levels while providing the same
unparalleled treatment uniformity and process consistency as our other
TRAK series plasma systems.”
