Nordson Electronics Solutions, a division of Nordson Corporation, introduces the MARCH MegaVIA Plasma Treatment System with a 15-cell configuration for panel sizes up to 30 x 52 inches in printed circuit board manufacturing. With overall dimensions of 1,652mm W x 1,782mm D x 2,326mm H, the new MegaVIA system offers increased panel loading by more than 54% with only a 2% increase in footprint when compared to a MARCH MaxVIA-Plus. The new platform delivers high process reproducibility and plasma treatment uniformity for PCB panels. The MegaVIA system provides plasma treatment at 40 kHz and accommodates all common gases -- CF4, oxygen, nitrogen, and argon -- with high process reproducibility and uniformity. An EPC controller with intuitive Windows 10 PC-based touch screen HMI allows for a wide range of data collection and control capabilities. Plasma treatment uniformity is critical for a large chamber system. Higher than 80% uniformity for desmear and etch back applications to both sides of the PCB panels is achieved using the MegaVIA system’s power-power electrode configuration, balanced vacuum and gas flow, and temperature management technologies.
