New Video from MTI! Closed-loop System to Monitor and Control Conductive Film Thickness During Manufacturing
Closed-loop System to Monitor and Control Conductive Film Thickness During Manufacturing This animation demonstrates how Accumeasure with capacitance probes can be used as a solution to measure and control conductive film thickness in a production line where these measurements can be fed back to a controller which adjusts the roller(s) to increase or decrease the gap to keep the film’s thickness within specification. The MTI Instruments Capacitive system has greater than 100 nm resolution and 1um accuracy. This solution is appropriate for measuring the following: EV battery plate thickness Non-woven conductive material thickness Conductive film thickness Roll-to-roll conductive [...]
WAFER MEASUREMENT – UNGROUNDED
Industry Semiconductor Applications Wafer Measurement – Ungrounded Measurement Type Metrology Description MTI Instruments Inc. has developed a thickness measurement device that eliminates the effect of varying target conductivity. Called the Push-Pull probe, it’s a unique version of the AccumeasureTM amplifier series. This special design provides accurate surface information for wafer bow and warp. Bow is the deviation of the center point of the median surface of a free, un-clamped wafer from the median surface to the reference plane. Where, the reference plane is defined by three corners of equilateral triangle. This [...]
PHOTOLITHOGRAPHY USING CAPACITANCE SENSORS
Industry Semiconductor Applications Lithography Optics Position Focus Measurement Type Positioning Description When it comes to photolithography, how accurate are our sensors? Photo by D. Carr and H. Craighead, Cornell - The world’s smallest guitar is 10 micrometers long — about the size of a single cell — with six strings each about 50 nanometers, or 100 atoms, wide. Made by Cornell University researchers from crystalline silicon, it demonstrates a new technology for a new generation of electromechanical devices. Even the world’s smallest guitar’s 2 micron [...]
Torque Converter
Industry Automotive Applications Torque Converter Measurement Type Surface Description Since minute defects in the torque converter casing wall thickness can result in unacceptable and dangerous torque converter expansion, a precision measurement system was needed to measure the impeller hub displacement and thus the torque converter axial displacement. An AC dynamometer would be required to spin the torque converter at a high rate of speed while a fast response hydraulic system is needed to pressurize the converter to pressures up to 150 psi. MTI’s MicroTrak laser sensor was selected because it offered [...]

Contact vs. Non-Contact Measurement and Linear Displacement Sensors
Contact vs. Non-Contact Measurements Choosing between a contact measurement system and a non-contact measurement system requires careful evaluation of your application’s performance needs, material properties, environmental conditions, and measurement goals. Each system type offers unique advantages- and understanding these distinctions can help you make a more informed decision. Let's explores how contact and non-contact measurement techniques work, their strengths and limitations, and where they’re best applied. What Are Contact Measurement Systems? Contact measurement systems involve tools and sensors that physically touch the object to determine various physical characteristics. These systems are widely used in dimensional metrology, offering high precision, [...]
Foam Density Measurement: Capacitance Sensors vs. Nuclear Gauges
This application note from MTI Instruments compares two technologies for measuring foam density: capacitance sensors and nuclear gauges. It examines the basic operating principles of each technology and explains why capacitance measurement is recommended for in-line measurement during foam manufacturing. Capacitance Sensors Capacitive probes are non-contact devices that use electric fields to measure foam density. In combination with a thickness value, a density measurement may be calculated. These probes consist of a capacitance sensor inside of a protective housing and are part of a larger measurement system that includes amplifiers, cables, and software. With parallel plate capacitance, the capacitance probe [...]
