12.1.1 SIPLACE SWS wafer stretcher
The SIPLACE wafer system (SWS) can be configured with the SIPLACE SWS wafer stretcher op-
tion for two different wafer supports (8" or 12").
The SIPLACE SWS wafer stretcher consists of the following main assemblies:
●
Stretcher
The stretcher stretches the wafer foil. The aim is to increase the space between the dies on it.
●
Heater
The heater consists of a heating element and a fan. The fan blows heated air on to the wafer
foil. This reduces the sag of the wafer foil (less than 9 mm), so that the wafer can be transpor-
ted back into the magazine.

12.1.2 Safety instructions
WARNING
Risk of burns due to high temperatures!
The heating can reach temperatures of up to 60°C.
► Do not reach into the area around the fan with your hands.
► Be careful when touching the wafer support.

Stretching factor = set stretch height + frame thickness ‑ 1.5 mm
NOTICE
Definition
Extensive tests with various materials were conducted during the product development phase.
However, due to the multitude of wafer foils available, the many die sizes and wafer frames,
we are unable to make a general function promise for all imaginable materials. New materi-
als should therefore be tested in advance, if there is any doubt.
