* You may run gases in a two-sequence plasma cycle (GAS 1/A followed by GAS 2/B) or in individual single gas sequences. Running gases in sequence will result in lower pressure reading.

* Run multiple cycles if longer plasma time is needed (up to two minutes), rather than altering baseline recipe. Recipe settings may only be altered by Protofab Staff. Reach out to Protofab staff should you need five minutes or more of plasma time.
* The maximum plasma power is 0.300 kW and will be locked at this setting.

== About ==
'''Note: This equipment is part of the [[Manual Assembly Station]].'''

The UJ35 is an UV curing device that quickly hardens UV resins (inks, adhesives, and coatings) via irradiation with UV light from an LED light source. The focused application of UV radiation to UV resins coated on minute surfaces (2 to 3 mm dia.). It uses a single 365-nm LED UV light source that does not emit any infrared radiation, eliminating the risk of heat damaging the workpiece. Also, unlike a lamp, it does not generate ozone, eliminating the need for an exhaust duct.[[File:Caution yellow sign.png]]

Always wear UV protective goggles specifically rated for the output wavelength (365nm) to avoid severe inflammation or permanent injury.

== Application ==
Appliable to wide Varity of material that are formulated to set while exposed to 365nm UV light. Note

* Optical path epoxies during fiber to PIC attach.
* Tacking free space components (e.g., lenses) in optimized position in an optical train.
* Glob top and encapsulation.
* Acrylic material curing.

== System Overview ==
The system consists of a compact controller that manages up to '''four independent LED heads'''. Key components include:

* '''Controller:''' Features a universal design with a high-visibility color LED display and front-panel operation switches.
* '''LED Heads:''' Compact 12 mm diameter heads in 365 nm wavelength.

* '''High-Power Irradiation:''' Delivers intensities up to 10,000 mW/cm² enabling shorter cure cycles.
* '''Programmable Operation:''' The UJ35 model supports up to seven different 10-step irradiation programs per channel, allowing for complex curing profiles.

Supplier's Recommended UV Intensity can be used as baseline. If another intensity is needed, us the following graphs to determine irradiation area and working distance.

== UV Curing Recipes ==
Recipes for hybrid materials are for initial tack only. UV exposure and heat cure will typically be needed for 100% [https://www.masterbond.com/techtips/how-critical-crosslink-density-epoxies-optimizing-performance crosslink]. Perform initial tack before thermal bake.

== About ==
The Yamato DKN series are line of forced convection constant temperature drying ovens designed for high-precision heating and drying applications. The DKN402 has 90L (3.2 cu ft) capacity vs DKN602 which has 150L (5.3 cu ft) capacity. Both models have side cable port as well as top exhaust ports which can be used as cable ports too. This is useful for routing multiple bias or control cables for burin-in or reliability test in batches.

== Application ==
The DKN series is primarily used for:

* '''Industrial Processing:''' Heat treatment (curing) of various material within a temperature up to '''260°C'''.

* '''Product Testing:''' Constant temperature experiments requiring precise thermal control such as "High Temperature Storage" or "Burn-In".

== System Overview ==
The oven operates using a '''PID microcomputer control system''' to regulate heater output for maximum stability.

'''Operation Modes:'''

* Fixed Temperature
* Quick Auto Stop
* Auto Stop
* Auto Start
* Program Operation (up to 30 steps)

== Operating Procedure & User's Manuals ==

== About ==
'''NOTE: This equipment is part of [[Manual Assembly Station]].'''

Nordson EFD Ultimus I-II are high-precision benchtop fluid dispensing control for advanced applications of epoxy, silicones, sealants, glues, greases, cyanoacrylates, solder pastes, and other assembly fluids dispensed with syringe barrels. Featuring a digital display of all fluid dispenser settings and time adjustment as fine as 0.0001 seconds, Ultimus I-II dispensers bring exceptional control to medical device, electronics, and other critical dispensing processes.

== Application ==
A few of use cases pertaining to packaging:

* Die attach epoxy application

* Glob top and encapsulation

* Underfilling of EIC or optical path (e.g., hybridized laser)

* RTV for potting and anchoring

* TIM (thermal interface material)

* Optical path epoxy

===== Ultimus I vs II =====
Ultimus I: Features '''0-100 psi''' (0-7 bar) constant-bleed air pressure regulation and provides greater control when dispensing '''any type of fluid'''.

Ultimus II: features '''0-15 psi''' (0-1 bar) constant-bleed air pressure regulation and provides greater control when dispensing '''low-viscosity or thin fluids'''.
== System Overview ==
'''Dispenser'''

* The system manages deposit size through three primary variables: '''dispense time''', '''air pressure''', and '''vacuum pullback.'''
* It operates in three different modes: Timed, Steady and Teach.
* It can store job programs in memory for repeatable process.

'''Syringe Barrels'''

Materials to be dispenses should be in standard syringes connected to the dispenser via adapters based on syringe capacity (e.g., 3cc, 5cc, 10cc & 30cc).

'''Dispense Tips'''

For a proper dispense volume and pattern, correct dispense tip should be selected. Tips are categories by internal diameter (ID) gauge and are color coded. Optimum tip can be chosen through try and error but generally, thin and low viscosity material will require smaller ID (bigger gauge).
