ITEC introduces breakthrough flip chip mounters that are 5 times faster than existing leading products on the market

ITEC has introduced the ADAT3 XF TwinRevolve flip chip mounter, which operates five times faster than existing machines and completes up to 60,000 flip chip mounts per hour. ITEC aims to achieve higher productivity with fewer machines, helping manufacturers reduce plant footprint and operating costs, resulting in a more competitive total cost of ownership (TCO).

The ADAT3XF TwinRevolve is designed with the user’s precision requirements in mind, and its accuracy at 1σ is better than 5μm. This level of precision, combined with extremely high yields, opens up more possibilities for developing a new generation of products, as flip chip assembly has been too slow and expensive in the past. Using flip chip packages also helps produce more reliable products with lower power consumption and better high-frequency and thermal management performance compared to traditional welding wires.

The new chip mounters no longer use the traditional forward and up-down linear motion, but use two rotating heads (TwinRevolve) to quickly and smoothly pick up, flip and place the chip. This unique mechanism reduces inertia and vibration, making it possible to achieve the same accuracy at higher speeds. This development opens up new opportunities for chip manufacturers to shift their high-volume wire welding products to flip chip technology.
