The PCB series can be configured with a variety of process gases and a complete range of RF generators, pumps, and blowers to meet the demands of rigorous 24-hour operation in any PCB manufacturing environment.

Uniform gas dispersion is achieved with March's unique vacuum chambers that feature a multiple-port configuration and cross pumping. Uniform gas ionization results from an electrode configuration with multiple power feed-throughs. Energizing the electrodes at multiple locations ensures a more homogeneous electromagnetic field. With dual outputs from the RF generator, each electrode is 180 degrees out of phase, supplying uniform plasma in each cell.

The R series plasma systems from March provide roll-to-roll processing of film and fabrics. Plasma treats filter materials to increase wettability and decrease flow resistance. It also enhances surfaces for extruded tubing and provides metal cleaning of wire/thin metal substrates.

• Designed for plasma treatment of webbed materials
• Accommodates webs of virtually any length & width
• Processing time controlled
• Minimal manpower required; saves money, increases productivity

Industry demands for tighter microvias and greater thermal expansion control may require removal of microscopic moisture particles and solvents from prepreg materials prior to lamination. Vacuum Storage Systems from March Plasma Systems have individual chambers for running multiple types of material simultaneously. Our flexible system design allows for various tooling options: nitrogen purges, several pump sizes and individual drawer-control indicators.
