Another milestone achieved - clean room fully built up

To ensure that our customers receive their ordered systems on time and in the usual good quality, we are realizing our move while production is running. Therefore, it will take until the end of this year for all colleagues and work equipment to finally arrive at the new location.

Now another phase of the move has been completed: The missing section of the clean room is finished. From now on, we have 1,043 m² clean room space (Class 10,000 / ISO 7) for the assembly of your production equipment available.

We are happy about this important further step to complete our new location.

scia Mill 300: Structuring of complex multilayers on 300 mm wafers

Increased wafer-size means lower costs. With our new system, scia Mill 300, you can benefit from all the advantages of ion beam etching on 300 mm wafers, such as excellent accuracy and uniformity, adjustable etch angle and processing of complex multilayers with inert and reactive gases.

Just like the other systems in the scia Mill-series, the scia Mill 300 has a full reactive gas compatibly, which enables reactive etch processes like reactive ion beam etching (RIBE) and chemically assisted ion beam etching (CAIBE).

Due to the flexible design, the system is suitable for high-volume and for small scale production.
