Abstract:
A flip chip assembly machine (FCAM) () includes a main gantry () and a substrate camera gantry () that are configured to operate independently of each other and, respectively, support a die () and a substrate camera () for alignment purposes. The FCAM further includes a fluxer () for applying flux to the die. A flip-to-flux pick and place subassembly () picks up a die and places it in flux () independently of the operation of the main gantry, which may perform another task during the flux dwell time. A substrate carrier conveyor () includes a walking beam () to rapidly accelerate and decelerate substrate carrier movement into and out of the FCAM.
