Nemotek Technologie, a wafer-level cameras, packaging and optics company, has ordered Eyelit Inc.’s manufacturing suite for applications in production support in Nemotek’s new wafer fab in Rabat, Morocco. The order is the second received this month by Eyelit, having only a few weeks ago announced an order from SiCrystal.

Nemotek’s new fab, which employs Tessera technology, will begin volume wafer shipments in April 2009. The fab’s planned capacity at full volume lies between 80 and 100 million wafer-level optics stacks, with 144,000 wafers for wafer-level packaging per annum. Nemotek has also stated that it plans deliveries of its wafer-level camera module demonstration system for customer evaluation to begin in Q2 2009.

“Nemotek’s prime objective is to offer world-class, wafer-level packaging and wafer-level-optics manufacturing services to its customers,” said Youssef Benmokhtar, Nemotek’s Marketing and Business Development Director. “We chose Eyelit MES solutions to provide our customers with the best production software available today in the market, one that enables us to guarantee real-time tracking of our production lots, equipment, and critical materials. It also includes real-time SPC capabilities to ensure constant parameter tracking and reaction to abnormal deviations. The CAPA module ensures the use of a proven quality process in case of out-of-control occurrences and all other quality outliers. Finally, we also wanted an MES solution that we could use to drive our factory to continuously achieve better performance.”
