IC Packaging and Test Machine
Integrated circuit (IC) packaging is the final stage of semiconductor device fabrication, followed by IC testing. In IC packaging and test machines, providing a total solution from wafer probes, manufacturing, packaging, and testing to module assembly is the key to success. One machine maker wanted to develop advanced process technology for IC manufacturing, including thermally enhanced packages, flip chip packages and wafer bumping. They teamed up with Advantech to create a total solution, enabling them to vertically link up activities across the manufacturing value chain.

Solar Cell Loader/Unloader Application
In the solar cell manufacturing process, cells need to be loaded into each in-line system and then unloaded after the process is complete. In order to properly handle these cells, the position control of the conveyor belt and robotic machines must be highly accurate, or there can be significant risk of damaging the cells or ruining an entire batch. Advantech PAC products helped create a solution for this complex solar cell loader/unloader project, which was aimed at reducing wiring costs and improving the reliability of communication.

Weighing and Packaging Machine
Automatic and highly accurate weighing & packaging machines are critical for many sectors, like pharmaceutical, medicine, food & beverage, jewelry, gold, silver, and more. After the weighing process, a conveyor system will transport the material to the packaging system. In recent years, these automatic weighing & packing devices have started to include intelligent features such as flexible orders and more detailed production systems. One client of Advantech’s was looking to
upgrade their weighing and packaging machinery with a powerful PAC to achieve high-precision driving with high-end capabilities.

Automatic Guided Vehicle
An automated guided vehicle (AGV) is a mobile robot that follows markers or wires in the floor, or uses vision or lasers. They are most often used in industrial applications to move materials around a manufacturing facility. One of our customers was looking to build an AGV for use in their warehouse that could integrate sound, light, and computer technologies which could be programmed to communicate with other robots to ensure products are moved as intended throughout the warehouse, whether to be stored for future use or sent directly to shipping areas.

Transmission Testing System
Transmissions are one of the most essential components of an engine, increasing and reducing engine speed by increasing torque. Transmissions are also used on bicycles, fixed machines, and anywhere else rotational speed and torque needs to be adapted. Often, a transmission will have multiple gears with the ability to switch between them as speed varies. In order to make sure that transmissions are suitable for the variety of conditions that drivers will encounter in everyday use, they must be thoroughly tested under the most strenuous conditions.

Laser Marking System for Disk Media
A machine equipment manufacturer in Singapore that manufactures laser processing machines was developing a system for marking and labeling finished disk media. Instead of using a conventional laser scribe to cut into the delicate disk surface, they wanted to create a system that uses laser marking to avoid disk media deterioration and contamination

External Rotor Stator Winding Machine
A stator is the stationary part of a rotor system, such as in an electric generator or electric motor. External rotor stator winders are used for automated coil winding in the manufacturing of such devices, such as portable electric tools, small electric generators, and electromotors in vehicle engines. This external rotor stator winding machine was built with the help of Advantech, combining motion control and HMI to provide animated displays and self diagnostic functions.
