Especially for smart-power hybrids and modules, the F&K 6600 bonder has been upgraded to deal efficiently with a large number of wires. Thus, speed is the crucial requirement. So far, the standard speed for heavy-wire applications was 700 to 750ms per wire which could be beat even by the „classic“ 6600, offering a bonding speed of 630 ms. Now, in recent tests of the upgraded machine, a speed of less than 400ms has been reached still offering acceptable bond quality. However, not only the increased speed is reportedly a remarkable improvement. Superior quality assurance is made possible by the patented bond-process-control feature, which now also offers integrated impedance measurement.
