MARCH AP-600 Plasma System
Compact Bench-Top Plasma Treatment
The AP-600™ plasma system delivers exceptionally
uniform plasma cleaning and treatment for semiconductor,
microelectronic packaging and assembly, and medical device
manufacturing.
The AP-600 system provides:
• Durable high-quality aluminum construction and xtures
• Up to 7 removable and adjustable powered or grounded
shelves for a wide range of piece-parts, components, and
part carriers including magazines, trays, and boats
• A compact, self-contained system chassis that houses the
plasma chamber, control electronics, 13.56 MHz RF
generator, and the automatic matching network (only the
vacuum pump is external to the system)
• An intuitive touch-screen control panel for real-time
process monitoring
• Convenient facility hook-ups for periodic calibration
requirements used in validation processes
• Support for a wide range of process gases including argon,
oxygen, hydrogen, helium, and uorinated gases
Key Applications
• Plasma cleaning
• Surface activation
• Adhesion improvement
• Maintenance access through an interlocked door or
removable panels
• Two standard electronic mass ow controllers for optimal
gas control, with an option for two additional controllers
(4 maximum)
