BTU TrueFlat Technology Ends Die Tilt at SEMICON Taiwan
August 24, 2017 | BTU International, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
BTU International, Inc. today announced plans to introduce its new TrueFlat technology, an optional configuration of the PYRAMAX convection reflow oven. The unique technology for substrate flatness will be introduced for the first time in Booth 1314 at SEMICON Taiwan, scheduled to take place Sept. 13-15, 2017 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center in Taipei, Taiwan.
Designed for substrate thicknesses of 0.15 to 0.30mm, TrueFlat technology ends die tilt. The result is consistent and repeatable flatness, and superior thermal uniformity due to the PYRAMAX’s closed-loop convection heating. The new PYRAMAX with TrueFlat technology does not impact reflow oven footprint, making it easy to transition from existing reflow processes. Easy to maintain with no vacuum pump, the system offers simple operation and full integration with BTU’s proprietary WINCON Windows-based software including factory host/MES interface for Industry 4.0 compliance.
Joe Yang, BTU product manager, commented, “PYRAMAX with TrueFlat technology is a factory-ready solution to end die tilt. It simplifies process transfer and maintenance, and provides a perfectly uniform and repeatable thermal process as well as flatness control. PYRAMAX is already the reflow oven of choice for the most advanced packaging applications, and this new technology extends its usefulness even further.”

Heavy Copper PCBs: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Fabrication, Part 1
04/01/2024 | Yash Sutariya, Saturn Electronics ServicesThey call me Sparky. This is due to my talent for getting shocked by a variety of voltages and because I cannot seem to keep my hands out of power control cabinets. While I do not have the time to throw the knife switch to the off position, that doesn’t stop me from sticking screwdrivers into the fuse boxes. In all honesty, I’m lucky to be alive. Fortunately, I also have a talent for building high-voltage heavy copper circuit boards. Since this is where I spend most of my time, I can guide you through some potential design for manufacturability (DFM) hazards you may encounter with heavy copper design.
Trouble in Your Tank: Supporting IC Substrates and Advanced Packaging, Part 5
03/19/2024 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankDirect metallization systems based on conductive graphite or carbon dispersion are quickly gaining acceptance worldwide. Indeed, the environmental and productivity gains one can achieve with these processes are outstanding. In today’s highly competitive and litigious environment, direct metallization reduces costs associated with compliance, waste treatment, and legal issues related to chemical exposure. What makes these processes leaders in the direct metallization space?
