WEST-BOND SEMIAUTOMATIC WEDGE BONDER:Semi-Automatic Wedge Bonder
Model 4500B operates under microprocessor control with user-programmed memory to stitch bond a succession of parallel multi-arch wires, requiring an operator only to position the critical bond target. Each increment of motion of tool and work in both Z and Y directions is chosen by stepper motors under program control so that the resulting wire connections have identical shapes. This is ideal for bonding high power, high frequency devices where it is necessary to hold the mutual inductance of parallel wires constant.
