Dealing with Heat in Semi Fab Lamps Here’s the thing about infrared (IR) radiation in a fab: if you don’t keep it in check, it’s a nightmare. It...

Why we use Infrared for Smart Fab heating Building a Smart Fab under Industry 4.0 isn’t just about the software. You can have the smartest code...

Keeping Your Class 100 Cleanroom Actually Clean If you’re running a Class 100 cleanroom, you know the nightmare of particulate shedding. One...

Cutting Carbon in the Fab: Why Infrared Heating Actually Works Let’s be honest: semiconductor manufacturing is a power hog. Most fabs are still...

Keeping Things Safe When Drying in a Chemical Fab Let’s be honest: drying processes in a semiconductor or chemical fab can be nerve-wracking. You’ve...

Why we obsess over the electrical safety of our IR lamps When you’re dealing with high heat and high voltage, things can go sideways fast. One...

Keeping Your Class 100 Cleanroom Actually Clean When you’re running a Class 100 environment, the smallest mistake is a disaster. A single flake...

Out on the fab floor, die attach adhesive curing is where thermal budget and yield collide. A 2°C drift is enough to shift bondline strength, invite...

On the fab floor, a tool down isn’t just maintenance. It’s a yield and schedule hit. When a coat/bake module needs a hot-zone rebuild or...

On the fab floor, you don’t get a second chance when the bake drifts half a degree. A 0.5°C swing during photoresist bake can move critical...

On the fab floor, thermal excursions never come with a warning label. You see them in drifting critical dimensions, sidewall striations, and...
