    System Upgrades

    Bonder Performance Upgrades enable customers to upgrade older machines 3500 Die Bonder, 8000 Wire Bonder, and SST Vacuum Reflow systems to achieve optimal system performance and extend the life of the machine. Upgrades with the latest Windows Operating System, P4 PC, Cognex 8000 Vision System create a path for further optimization of process and other new software features, such as VisionPilot with Radar Referencing.

     

    Spare Parts

    New bonder and vacuum reflow system spare parts and sub-assemblies are available for purchase.

    Depending on your system, refurbished items, such as bond heads, Cognex cards, and die collet heads, may be purchased at a reduced price if they are available. Bonder consumables, such as gold wire, are also available.

    Training

    Bonder and Vacuum Reflow system training courses offer comprehensive in-house wedge bonder, die bonder, wire bonder and vacuum reflow system training from Palomar Technologies and SST System experts.

    Standard and advanced training courses are available. Choose between small-class sizes for maximum hands-on experiences or one-on-one interaction with our instructors. This training can be conducted at any of our sites in California, Germany or Singapore, or on-site at your facility.

    Add-On Options

    Because all Palomar bonders are modular in design, other upgrades such as Pulse Heat System, Wafer Die Eject system, Heated Stages, Ergonomic kits, additional dispensers and automated material handling are possible on Palomar machines for field retrofit.  

    Graphite tooling and fixturing for SST vacuum reflow systems are made to order; this specialized tooling is designed and fabricated in our facility.
