X-SAM inline sintered-joint acoustic inspection
AMX Automatrix · Packaging processes and engineering validation
- Purpose
- Inspect completed sintered joints in power-electronics manufacturing and locate interfaces that need further review. This system inspects joints; it does not produce them.
- Technical approach
- Scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) examines joint interfaces within a fully automated inline system. AMX describes customization to customer designs and requirements, with a patented approach to protecting top-side components.
- Scope of use
- Intended for inline inspection of sintering results in power electronics. Suitability for a particular package, joint and component layout requires review of acoustic access and line integration, followed by sample trials.
- Limitations and open questions
These evaluation considerations are compiled by BLNKK from public information. They are not supplier guarantees or a mandatory submission checklist.
Scope and limitationsAMX describes M201X as a customized inline, non-destructive system for inspecting sintered joints in power electronics. Its public product page does not specify defect detection size, resolution or acceptance criteria. Acoustic images alone should not be treated as proof of joint strength or detection of every small void.
What to prepareBLNKK suggests preparing package cross-sections, bondline and substrate thicknesses, component layouts on both sides, and target defects and acceptance criteria. Existing acoustic images or cross-sections can support sample comparisons.
Confirm with the supplierConfirm compatible acoustic coupling and scanning methods, top-side component protection and detection capability demonstrated on your samples. Ask whether inline handling, inspection cycle time and data output can fit your production line.
- Public evidence
- AMX’s official Inline X-SAM M201X page describes non-destructive sinter inspection, full inline automation, product-specific customization and top-side component protection. It does not provide detection specifications or validation data applicable to every sample.
