Circuits Assembly Online Magazine - Universal Launches Linear Motor Driven AdVantis XS

News

Universal Instruments will demonstrate its latest platform placement system, the AdVantis XS, at Semicon West. Designed for the convergence of semiconductor and standard surface-mount assembly, the system deploys Universal’s VRM linear motors for accuracy and repeatability.

AdVantis XS evolved from the GSMxs, delivering similar accuracies of +/-9 microns at +/- 3 sigma, but with a 25% increase in feeder capacity for on-machine inventory and a 15% speed improvement. Advanced materials engineering and optimized design offers customers a price some 25% lower than its predecessor, with backward compatibility, shared resources and common interfaces.

The linear-motor-driven system has high magnification cameras, flip-chip algorithms, low force capability, heated spindles, fluxing, dispensing, and a variety of feeder types. Is Class 1000 clean room compatible.
