The semiconductor industry involves the design, development, manufacturing and sales of small electronic parts and chips. These semiconductors appear in almost every modern technology and equipment we use. Semiconductors play an important role in our daily notebook computers, computers or smart phones. With the continuous innovation and technological breakthrough in recent years, the semiconductor industry has developed widely and rapidly. With the increase of semiconductor production, manufacturers hope to produce more semiconductor products in less time. In addition, as the size of modern electronic equipment becomes smaller and smaller, semiconductors must also become smaller. Therefore, the manufacturing process of semiconductor needs high efficiency, high speed and more detailed operation process. Although this may sound too demanding, laser cutting efficiency and quality level have reached such requirements, so it has been widely used.
One of the biggest advantages of laser cutting to the semiconductor industry is the accuracy it can provide. Previously, using conventional methods, space must be left on the semiconductor for cutting. This problem will not occur when using laser, because there are very thin slits and almost no material loss. Another advantage of laser cutting is that it can quickly switch between multiple applications, thus reducing the idle time between each task, and can work at an amazing speed to meet the needs of mass production.
Another reason why laser cutting is very useful in this industry is that its non-contact process will not cause any unnecessary thermal damage to the surrounding area of the semiconductor. Since these parts will be installed in highly complex machines and equipment, their quality must not be affected. Laser cutting not only has high accuracy, but also has the ability to cut complex shapes, so it is very beneficial to this industry. Semiconductors are more than just a shape or size and must be adjusted to fit the new equipment to be installed in them. Laser cutting can be well used with a variety of semiconductor materials, including metal and silicon.
