BTU International Exhibiting in SEMICON West Smart Manufacturing Pavilion
June 25, 2019 | BTU International, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
BTU International, Inc., a leading supplier of advanced thermal processing equipment for the electronics manufacturing and alternative energy markets, today announced that it will have a Pryamax 100A at the SEMICON West Smart Manufacturing Pavilion. The event is scheduled to take place July 9-11, 2019 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California. The smart manufacturing data-sharing will be enabled by Cimetrix’s Sapience product which runs on the SECS/GEM framework. BTU has supported SECS/GEM protocol for many years and is well-versed in this standard.
Today's explosive growth in data is driving enormous demand for new technologies to analyze and leverage it. At the SEMICON West Smart Manufacturing Pavilion, you'll see and experience data-sharing breakthroughs that are creating smarter manufacturing processes, increasing yields and profits, and spurring innovation across the industry.
BTU’s Pryamax platform is the leader in thermal processing for semiconductor packaging applications such as flip chip reflow and die attach. Pryamax is uniquely suited for these applications due to its superior thermal uniformity and repeatability. In nitrogen capable models the Pyramax boasts the lowest oxygen levels in the peak heating zones enabling the highest yields for these critical process steps.
