uv Laser systems for wafer serialization, marking and scribing
Apr 27 , 2021
Semiconductor wafer processing typically requires serialization, patterning and roughening operations. And picking the correct laser system for these operations can be complex once you consider all the relevant process variables—such as substrate type, wafer diameter, feature size, slag tolerances, debris volume, throughput and clean room protocols. Whether marking or cutting wafers, lasers ...

Non-contact laser systems for precise wire stripping
Apr 27 , 2021
Mechanical, chemical and heat-based wire stripping methods require frequent cleaning, maintenance and adjustment and can also damage the conductor. Laser-based wire stripping overcomes these challenges. This non-contact approach keeps the conductive material and shield intact—eliminating weak spots for breakage or conductor resistance. At CMS Laser, we’ll design a wire stripping system...

UV Laser Marking for 2D Codes (Data matrix / QR Code / Barcode
Apr 28 , 2021
While demands for smaller and thinner products and more detailed traceability continue to grow, there are increasing needs for packing more information within a limited space on manufactured products. A 2D code can hold tens to hundreds of times the information of a barcode. This high information density allows a 2D code to hold the same amount of information as a barcode in as little as 1/3...
