MVTec at the SEMICON Europa trade fair: Machine vision as a key technology for semiconductor manufacturing

• The slogan of the trade fair appearance "Machine Vision | Level up your speed and accuracy" addresses the challenges in semiconductor production • The quality assurance and alignment applications will be a particular focus at the MVTec booth

Munich, October 7, 2024 - MVTec Software GmbH (www.mvtec.com), a leading global provider of machine vision software, will be exhibiting again this year at SEMICON Europa in Munich, taking place from November 12 to 15, 2024. In hall 2, booth C2100, MVTec will be showcasing the benefits of machine vision technology for semiconductor and electronics manufacturing. "Machine vision is a key technology in modern semiconductor manufacturing. It improves both precision and efficiency throughout the production process, while also helping to reduce waste. Its applications range from seamless tracking and precise positioning to automated quality inspection across the entire process chain. With our extensive range of technologies and solutions, we are able to support the entire production process, from front-end to back-end. That's why we've chosen the slogan for our presence at SEMICON Europa: ‘Machine Vision | Level up your speed and accuracy,'" explains Klaus Schrenker, Business Development Manager at MVTec.


Focus: Quality assurance, positioning, and alignment in images
Semiconductor production involves hundreds of highly automated steps, offering numerous opportunities to leverage machine vision even more effectively. Key applications include identification, alignment, positioning, measurement, and defect detection. MVTec will be demonstrating how their software products, MVTec HALCON and MVTec MERLIC, can provide specific support in these areas through two demos at their booth. The first demo will showcase precise defect and contamination detection on the surface of a structured wafer. The second demo will highlight how MVTec's own deep-learning-based anomaly detection technology can be used to reliably detect defects on printed circuit boards. MVTec experts will be on hand to discuss these applications and provide detailed explanations on how machine vision can be utilized effectively.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
