MM Status Mostly unchanged (Feb. 3 rd 2016)

Parts Mildly modified bridges, allowing to actually move 130nm pickup tools along r*phi –Turned out to be blocked by cutout at bottom side of the bridge New bridge layout is “done” in a first iteration –Pickup tools have been ordered and delivered, looking good –Still needs base parts for the bridge, some fine-pitch screws…

Todo List Minor modifications: –Vacuum check lights, possibly with sensing –Vacuum distribution and source Currently available from clean room vacuum, would like to decouple this to so as to not harm general cleanroom operation due to larger flow from the MM system –Remake mount for cameras + laser range finder Currently unstable and without large FOV webcam –Straight line reference Almost ready New mount for camera arrived Modification to Laser to also hold target is needed Major modifications: –Still hoping to get an interferometer (end of year money) –New bridges whenever they happen

Thermomechanical Stave Stave is currently on mounting table and has been scanned with the laser range finder on both sides (Monday and Tuesday evening) Two Bridges are available for mounting modules –Min. 4 modules ready to be installed No EOS cards for that yet –The current layout used for thermo cycling and testing has a feature that prevents the covers from being mounted without modification – do we want that? Still need to run through position numbers for fiducials on the stave, to allow placement through software defined positions

Thermomechanical Stave Glue Pattern: Octothorpe –Lines: How thick –Worry about bending due to tooling (pressure points currently on the outside) Add extra dots in all four corner of the module? Hand Stave to Graham again before fully loaded for initial tests –Needs the EOS to arrive first
