From Lab to Line: AMX's Integrated Sintering and Acoustic Inspection Workflow

From R&D bench to high-volume manufacturing, AMX pairs sintering presses with non-destructive scanning acoustic microscopy to deliver a single, traceable workflow for power electronics modules.

Research, Laboratory, and University Applications

R&D sintering and acoustic inspection working as one powerful duo.

X-Sinter P55 and X-SAM M51 create a versatile laboratory workflow: develop modules, tune bonding parameters, and validate bonding quality with non-destructive scanning acoustic microscopy. The result is a fast, flexible path from process idea to reliable data.
