MANCHESTER, N.H., 6 Feb. 2007. J P Sercel Associates (JPSA) in Manchester, N.H., is introducing JPSAControls32 system control software to meet the control and programmability challenges of micromachining and wafer processing with lasers.
JPSAControls32 is an engineer-level user interface that controls system devices and software components for system setup and programming. JPSAControls32 is Windows-based software with features such as a system configuration editor for editing of system software settings and CAD file translation capability (of .dxf files, for automated programming of complex designs.
JPSAControls32 provides project management utilities that permit system software to 'remember' settings for an unlimited number of different production tasks.
JPSATools32 Module provides user access control for three levels: operator, maintenance, and setup. The program provides setup and control of motion, including linear stages, rotary stages, motorized beam delivery system components (mask changers, rectangular variable apertures, variable attenuators, beam stops, etc.) and laser fire mechanisms.
It also provides high-level programming language that permits users to program complex automation sequences that integrate motion control, digital I/O, and laser functions and then save them in files.
JPSAControls32 also features the Wafer Scribing Macro Builder interface that enables the user to input wafer diameter, die pitch in X and Y, etc. to create a desired run list automatically; it can be used for an unlimited number of wafer/die configurations.
