Improve accuracy and throughput
Unlocking new potential in chipmaking with HEIDENHAIN MULTI-DOF TECHNOLOGY

Chiplet technology and new mid-end-of-line processes in semiconductor manufacturing have laid the groundwork for artificial intelligence, humanoid robots and self-driving vehicles. Advances in production miniaturization have downscaled the distance between electrical contacts to 2 microns, thus reaching a key milestone. But even smaller structures are attainable at greater throughput with the HEIDENHAIN encoders and ETEL motion systems being showcased at SEMICON West 2024.

HEIDENHAIN Dplus encoders
New potential in robotics, elevators and chipmaking

Our Dplus encoders share a remarkable capability: multi-dimensional motion feedback. In robotics, the inductive KCI 120 Dplus provides rotary position feedback both upstream and downstream from a robot joint’s gearing, thus raising TCP accuracy and simplifying cobot design. On elevator motors, the KCI 419 Dplus merges angular position feedback with continuous brake-stroke monitoring for greater operational reliability. And for chipmaking challenges, such as finer structures in hybrid bonding, the LIP 6000 Dplus drives up system accuracy by tracking secondary motion orthogonal to its primary linear axis.

TNC controls for more sustainability
OCM: 67% less energy per part

Optimized Contour Milling (OCM) uses next-generation trochoidal milling to achieve up to 67% time and energy savings during roughing, finishing and smart deburring while maximizing process reliability. Users merely define the contour and apply the optimal machining parameters from a built-in cutting data calculator. The TNC control then automatically determines the best trochoidal milling strategy for any desired pockets and islands.
