New Wave Research Announces An Accessory Kit For QuikLaze Laser-Cutting Systems
The StageLaze accessory kit transforms QuikLaze systems into turnkey failure-analysis and micromachining solutions
Fremont, Calif., October 17, 2005 - New Wave Research has introduced StageLaze, an accessory kit for the QuikLaze laser-cutting product family. Available in motorized and manual configurations, this accessory kit creates a comprehensive micromachining solution that is exceptionally cost effective, reliable and accurate. The laser can be specified in single and multiple wavelength configurations, including IR, green and UV. Multiple wavelengths, combined with user-selectable repetition rates, provide the ability to cut a wide range of materials.
Featuring an extremely small footprint and simple set-up, the StageLaze accessory kit can easily be transported from laboratory to laboratory, or department to department. The system is ideally suited for laboratory- and R&D-grade micromachining and failure analysis; applications include removing discrete layers of materials, ITO shorts in LCD panels, polyimide prior to FIB edits and color-filter repairs.
"Until now, if customers desired a sophisticated and compact micromachining solution,
they'd have to consult with multiple sub-system suppliers," said Kenan Chen, director of product marketing of New Wave Research. "The StageLaze accessory kit provides customers with a turnkey, one-stop-shop solution, from a company with deep expertise in advanced laser-cutting technology and a worldwide technical-support network."
"Also, many customers outsource work involving failure analysis and micromachining
to service houses," Chen continued. "This can be quite expensive and time-intensive;
some houses have long turnaround times. The StageLaze accessory kit eliminates
the need to outsource - and in turn, protects a company's proprietary processes."
The QuikLaze family of laser-cutting systems is extensively proven and effective. Each enables precise cutting on a microscopic level. Selectable repetition rates from single shot to 50-Hz continuous facilitate fast throughput. A range of wavelength configurations provides the ability to cut a variety of materials, and selectively remove certain materials while leaving others unaffected. A standard, motorized X-Y aperture or optional high-resolution X-Y aperture allows for accurate cutting control.
