What it is

The Strasbaugh 6 CG 60" Lapper is a dicing and grinding machine.[1]

The Strasbaugh 6 CG 60" Lapper is a 1 phase machine rated for 50/60 Hz and 208V.[2][1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A lapper removes material by holding a workpiece against an abrasive surface while motion between the workpiece and the abrasive produces controlled planarization.

A grinding machine removes material by controlled abrasive contact to reduce thickness, correct flatness, or prepare a surface for later singulation or finishing steps.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The machine belongs to backend wafer processing rather than front end transistor fabrication.

Applications

The Strasbaugh 6 CG 60" Lapper is used for lapping and grinding tasks in semiconductor manufacturing.[1]

Frequently asked questions

How is lapping different from dicing?General reference — not yet source-verified

Lapping is a surface-finishing and thinning process applied across the face of a part, while dicing separates a processed wafer or substrate into individual pieces. The two processes serve different roles in the manufacturing flow.

What types of materials are commonly processed on lapping systems?General reference — not yet source-verified

Such systems are commonly used on silicon, compound semiconductor materials, glass, sapphire, ceramics, and other hard or brittle substrates. The general requirement is a need for controlled material removal with attention to flatness and surface integrity.
