Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for endpoint detection in a semiconductor wafer etching ysstem characterised in the steps of: 1) scanning a semiconductor wafer (10) with a narrowly focussed laser beam (24); 2) analyzing a reflected portion of the beam to determine a preferred parking spot (P) on a preferred flat area (#8) of the wafer; 3) parking the beams at the preferred spot; and 4) analyzing the reflected portion of the beam to determine when the preferred flat area has been etched through. The beam spot (18) of the laser beam (24) is amller than the width of the preferred flat area to eliminate noise generated at the transition boundaries of the flat area. Preferably, the wafer is scanned several times along the same beam path to permit the comparison of several scans to determine the preferred parking spot. The apparatus includes a beam forming assembled (62, 64, 66); a scanning assembly which causes the laser beam to scan across the wafer; a detection assembly (76) responsive to a portion of the laser beam which is reflected off the wafer; and a controller (78) which operates the laser and the scanning assembly and which is responsive to an output of the detection assembly. When output of the detection assembly indicates a cessation of the characteristic etching curve, the controller develops an endpoint detection signal which can automatically shut down the etching system. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The valve comprises a hollow body (1) connected (2,3) at either end to the piping, and containing a transverse partition (4) with a central hole (5). Fitted in this hole is a shut-off spool (8) movable parallel to the fluid flow through the valve between a shut-off position when a portion (15) contacts a fixed area (16) on the partition surface, and an open position when the shut-off is moved away. The shut-off terminates in identical pistons (11,12) operating in chambers (13,14) situated coaxially on the valve body and are isolated from the core of the valve. The valve is normally held off its seat by pressure introduced into the chamber via a pilot valve, which when released allows the spool to close the flow by spring (19) action.

Abstract: According to the invention, the drive of an inversion-kinematic Paul Schatz-type mixing machine consists of two electric motors (11, 12) in series powered at a constant current via a shared regulator. The current which determines the torque at the spindles (4, 5) is set by an adjuster. The voltage drop across the motors determines the mean revolution speed of shafts (4, 5) which rotate differentially owing to the design of the machine. The mixing machine, which is known per se, consists of a support (1) having two bearings (2, 3) in which the two parallel shafts (4, 5) can rotate. At their upper ends the shafts (4, 5) take the form of swivel bearings (6) for two forks (7). Axis bolts for rotation (8) run through the forks (7) which are perpendicular to each other and to the respective swivel axes (6). The two axis bolts for rotation (8) are secured to a cage (9) receiving a mixing container (10).

Abstract: In the direction of the toothing, the cold-formed rack-type workpiece (2) has a plurality of cold-forming tracks. In the manufacturing process, the workpiece (2) is moved transversely to the axis (12) of the rolling head in the device, relative to the rotatingly driven rolling head (12). Rollers (111) with annular ribs (113) are rotatably mounted on the rolling head (11) along at least one helical line (112) and these rollers (111) revolve in a planetary manner with the rolling head (11). In this arrangement, individual rolling operations overlapping in the feed direction (170) are performed in rapid succession with each roller (111). In this process, the annular ribs (113), which are shaped in the manner of toothed gaps, engage on the workpiece (2). In a process involving cold forming of the workpiece (2), workpiece material is here displaced by the annular ribs (113) predominantly from the toothed root to the toothed tip. It is also possible for the rollers to roll over the toothed tip. A device for carrying out the method has a holding device (15) for gripping the workpiece (2) and a rolling head (11) which can be driven in rotation about its axis (12), and furthermore has feed means (17) and a stroke-adjusting means (18). A plurality of rollers (111), each having at least one annular rib (113) in the form of toothed gaps, are arranged in a planetary manner along at least one helical line (112) and rotatably mounted on the rolling head (11). <IMAGE>
