Challenge

Semiconductor handling requires precise, lightweight, ESD-safe fixtures that are difficult to machine and must be changed frequently as product geometry changes.

Solution

NXP uses SLS AM for precision chip and wafer handling fixtures — achieving 50% weight reduction versus machined equivalents and enabling rapid redesign when product geometry changes.

Outcomes

0150% weight reduction
02Days vs weeks for new fixture time savings
