The SWAM Belt Abrading System is designed to precisely abrade uniform finishes to surfaces requiring exact repeatability. This automated system enhances the surface abrading process by featuring consistent powder flow control, a variable speed conveyor belt as well as a variable speed cam driven reciprocator mechanism with a linear stroke to achieve uniform results from beginning to end. The process begins when substrates are loaded manually or automatically onto a 9″ wide conveyor belt. The belt then transports the substrates into the abrading area where one nozzle up to as many as six nozzles reciprocate 8.4″ uniformly over the moving substrates. The substrates are fully supported by the perforated conveyor belt and held in place by the vacuum of the dust collector. The Belt Abrader was designed originally for semiconductor wafers to remove oxides and junctions, backside damage for gettering, mesa diode processing as well as for backlapping. Additional applications include surface texturing, selective etching, surface finishing and plating preparation of quartz, glass, ceramic, plastic, metals and many other materials requiring an uniform surface. The Model C129 Belt Abrader features two Model LV-1 or Model XV-1. Please specify your electrical requirements when requesting for quote. In addition to manufacturing micro sandblasting systems, Crystal Mark, Inc. operates an on-site job shop for companies requiring micro sandblasting services.
