The Model 4700 convertible wire bonder, with analog dials and a special transducer, performs wedge or capillary mounting. Changeover is accomplished by swinging the assembly into position for ball or wedge bonding and loading wire. The machine gives 90° deep access for wedge bonding, and features a swing arm assembly, missing ball detection, a PLL ultrasonic generator, and semi-automated or manual bond modes with Z-axis control. Temperatures reach 250°C with operator controls. Kulicke & Soffa, Ft. Washington, PA, www.kns.com.
