MKS-ESI’s Geode™ is a laser-based micro-via drilling system for high-density interconnects (HDI) on rigid printed circuit boards (PCB). The Geode™ combines a CO2 laser and advanced beam control capabilities to deliver greatest throughput and accuracy from a system that is significantly smaller and lighter than current competitive offerings. The system’s sophisticated beam steering and pulse shaping technologies provide the flexibility and control that will be required for 5G applications using high-frequency compatible materials and finer-pitched interconnects fabricated with modified semi-additive processes (mSAP).
The Geode™ system uses a powerful 9.4µm pulsed CO2 laser, emitting infrared radiation ideally-suited for rigid PCB materials. Its HyperSonix™ technology shapes laser pulses to improve throughput and via quality. AcceleDrill™ distributes pulse energy to improve throughput and via metrics and also permits multiple via sizes in a single pass. VDC (via density compensation) controls local heating to minimize heat-affected zones and improve accuracy, throughput and diameter stability. The Geode™ system is the first CO2 laser via drilling system to incorporate such high level beam control and beam steering technologies.

RollMaster™ enables flex PCB manufacturers to process a wide range of materials while maintaining high throughput. The patent-pending Dynamic Tensioning™ technology used in the RollMaster™ handlers continuously adjusts for the changes in bi-directional tension placed on flex material as the result of acceleration and deceleration of the material during processing. RollMaster™ is a high-throughput solution for processors utilizing a variety of web widths and different materials, especially those prone to wrinkling or stretching.

The LodeStone™ system is a more accurate and flexible processing alternative for the efficient cutting and drilling of flexible materials. Its short pulse-width femtosecond laser results in low levels of carbonization and minimal heat-affected zones, delivering exceptional accuracy and tight tolerances required by processors.
Inefficient energy absorption is a major cause of poor quality and low throughput in many materials. Ultra-short-pulse lasers can avoid issues associated with poor laser energy absorption due to its cold ablation mechanism. LodeStone™ uses an ESI-designed femtosecond laser with proprietary fiber technology that enables you to process a broader range of material with high quality and productivity.
