MODEL 3130 – PROGRAMMABLE VACUUM/PRESSURE FURNACE

FOR HIGH RELIABILITY MICROELECTRONIC PACKAGE ASSEMBLY

The 3130 is a programmable vacuum and pressure furnace offered by SST International for high reliability microelectronic package assembly. Advanced technology, provided by the system, allows users to create void-free solder joints without the use of flux. The 3130 is used in both production and research environments.

The system provides precise automatic control of heating and cooling up to 500 °C (1000 °C optional) in an inert gas environment from vacuum levels of below 50 millitorr to pressures exceeding 50 psig. Machine control is provided by an embedded control system operating in a Microsoft Windows® environment. An unlimited number of process profiles can easily be created and stored in the controller. Run data is archived for quality control and off-line data analysis. Internet and intranet network connectivity is available as an option, permitting remote monitoring, troubleshooting and maintenance capabilities. Custom-designed resistive graphite heating fixtures (ordered separately) are matched to user application requirements for optimum system performance.
CONTROL SYSTEM

  
The 3130 utilizes a distributed logic system that links intelligent temperature and pressure controllers to a Windows® based central control. All process parameters are controlled automatically with user-edited programs for each application. Multiple temperature and pressure ramps and dwells are easily programmed as time-based events. Vacuum levels, gas pressures and flow rates are independently programmable. Furnace operating characteristics are continuously monitored and the operator is alerted to any unusual conditions. The operator interface features a color touch-screen display. For process engineers and maintenance personnel a standard computer keyboard with trackball is provided behind a locking front panel. All process profiles are stored directly on the system hard drive.
