AFS-300 is the first automated production 300mm wafer flatness measurement. The
AFS-300 is capable of accurate and precise measurements at the 0.12 um site
flatness specification level, which supports both 0.25 um and 0.18 um design
rules, as defined by the NTRS road map. The AFS-300 offers the optimal
combination of measurement accuracy, contamination-free handling and throughput
for production wafer flatness and shape measurements.

MIM Industries, Inc- A
Brother Corporation
Miamisburg, OH
MIM Industries, Inc. specializes in the design and manufacturing of custom automated production equipment for companies - primarily in the automotive and related industries -- looking for unique solutions to their problems. In the past, they have developed such equipment to include various types of welding, assembly, material handling, inspection and inline integration. The X-Y Theta Sewing Systems was developed for use in sewing the main panels of side impact airbags. This machine design utilizes the Acroloop ACR2000 motion control system and allows the panels to be joined by moving through the machine in an X-Y and Theta motion. This unique feeding motion duplicated what previously could only be performed manually. With state-of-the-art technology, MIM and Acroloop insure every stitch is formed to a relative feed motion at a high rate of speed.
Resource Engineering,
Inc.
Gilbert, AZ
Resource Engineering is a US Manufacturer of Large and High Accuracy Coordinate Measuring Machines. With a comprehensive range of machine types and sizes, Resource Engineering has been setting new standards in the industry. The Twin rail CMM pictured utilizes an ACR2000 motion control card from Acroloop. The ACR2000 was selected for its excellent features, in particular, the ability to slave one axis to another allowing extremely precise motion of dual drive bridge at all speeds. With the 3500 lb. bridge moving at 10 inches per second, the yaw errors were measured by laser at less than 2 arc seconds. The resulting overall accuracy of this CMM is unmatched in the industry.

The AEP-12T from ASG (a Tyco electronics company) is a 12 ton press that is used in electronics assembly to install pressfit connectors into printed circuit boards. ASG chose servo electric power over hydraulics and pneumatics because of the superior control it provides. The AEP-12T has 4 servo axes and 6 encoder inputs. A PC running custom VB software on Windows NT handles all axes, as well as reading 5 analog input channels from load cells.
