How it works

The Disco 3220 uses a blade assembly, spindle lock, blade maintenance functions, and a blade breakage detector during setup and operation.[5]

The Disco 3220 SOP includes initialization, blade replacement, blade parameter entry, spindle access, torque-controlled blade installation, and blade breakage detector adjustment.[5]

Applications

The Disco 3220 is used for wafer dicing with standard tape or ultraviolet tape.[1][2][3]
