Manual wire bonders play an important role in the preparation of pre-series and prototypes as well as in laboratory use. The advantage of manual machines is that users can start working with them without having to go through time-consuming training and learning periods. Manual bonders can be designed as simple mechanical machines in the basic version or as machines with elaborate hard and software. The F&K Delvotec’s series 5300 were developed based on long-standing experience with semi-automatic machines. The trend is toward machines offering all the advantages of a semi-automatic bonder, such as programmable loop-height, ultra-sound power and time, electronic touch-down sensor and variable bond weight. The 5300 series meet all these requirements. The DC-motor driven Z-axis is menu-navigated. The touch-down sensor and DC-motor drive ensure extremely soft landing, thus preventing wire pre-deformation. This is where the individually programmable power and time of ultra-sound for every bond pays off, as the first and second bonds are made under varying surface conditions, therefore requiring different settings to achieve a good result. The 5300 series are only 620mm wide, 580mm deep, 430mm high and weigh approximately 35kg. They are smaller than the previous 5400 semi-automatic machines and fit on any workbench. The manual bonders handle aluminum and gold wires from 17,5 up to 75µm for wedge-wedge (model 5330) or ball-wedge (model 5310) applications as well as ribbons of up to 200µm. A large choice of heated and unheated work holders is available
