Wafer Bonder
AML
-
Wafer bonding has found many applications in the field of MST, MEMS and micro engineering. These include the fabrication of pressure sensors, accelerometers, micro-pumps and other fluid handling devices. The process is also used for first-order packaging of silicon microstructures to isolate package-induced stresses. The OAI AML Wafer Bonder facilitates both the alignment and bonding to be performed in-situ, in a high vacuum chamber. For anodic bonding the wafers are loaded cold and heated in the process chamber. For high accuracy alignment the wafers are aligned and brought into contact only after the process temperature has been reached, thus avoiding differential thermal expansion effects which can compromise alignment. The AML Wafer Bonder is excellent for anodic bonding, silicon direct and thermal compression bonding applications. These features enable the bonder to be used with virtually any processing tool.

Spectrum Analysis
S95090B
-
The S95090B spectrum analyzer (SA) measurement software adds high-performance microwave spectrum analysis to PXI VNAs. With fast stepped-FFT sweeps resulting from optimized data processing, the SA software application provides quick spurious searches over broad frequency ranges. The S95090B software uses the PXI network analyzer's test and reference receivers to complete simultaneous spectrum measurements. Multi-channel SA measurements leverage the PXI VNA's internal swept-signal generators for efficient measurements of spurious signals emanating from mixers and frequency converters. The S95090B spectrum analyzer software application employs source-power and receiver-response calibration as well as fixture de-embedding, providing in-fixture and on-wafer spectrum measurements with the highest level of accuracy. Optional external attenuators should be connected with the VNA’s test ports to avoid receiver compression when measuring large signals.

Paper Softness Tester ZRD-T1
-
The ZRD-T1 Paper Softness Tester is a device designed to objectively measure the softness of paper products, such as tissues, toilet paper, or specialty papers. Softness is a complex tactile property influenced by factors like surface smoothness, flexibility, and bulk compressibility. It is widely used in industries such as tissue manufacturing, hygiene product development, textiles, and packaging to ensure compliance with quality standards and end-user comfort requirements. This test instrument conforms to many national and international standards: ASTM D2923: Standard Test Method for Rigidity of Paper – Measures bending resistance to determine stiffness. ASTM D6828: Standard Test Method for Stiffness of Nonwoven Fabrics – Evaluates drape and flexibility in materials like medical textiles or wipes. TAPPI T498: Bending Resistance of Paper (Gurley Method) – Quantifies resistance to bending forces, inversely related to softness. GB/T 8942: Chinese Standard for Softness Testing of Household Paper – Aligns with consumer expectations for tissue and toilet paper tactile quality.
