Gentlemen, Thank you very much for the information shared to us regarding Chip-On-Flex. We will bear this in mind. But we would also want to know if you have a basic or extended knowledge in automated COF Assembly. We initially saw a problem in automating COF especially in the wire bonder and curing oven because of the transfer of the palette from the conveyors to the wire bonder or curing oven for that matter. Are you familiar with machines that are suitable for fully automated COF assembly (e.g. wire bonder , curing oven, etc.) ? Can you explain to us plasma cleaning ? How does it differ from aqueous cleaning... Thank you once again and hope to hear from you very soon !!! Regards, Edwin V.
