=

The dicing saw is scheduled go down for an upgrade on Monday October 9th and will be down for that week and into the weekend. Part of the upgrade will be updated software and will require users to be re-trained. I will provide more info on the re-training once I get a little hands on time with the updated software.

I'll send out a couple of reminder emails between now and then and keep everyone updated in the event the schedule for this changes. //Vraj Mehalana 10:33, 6 September 2023 (PDT)

Plasma Activation (EVG 810)

We have received almost all the replacement parts for the tool except the new chuck. The original delivery date of mid June has now been pushed out to early September and they have stated that this is the best that their supplier can do. I will not be installing any new parts on the tool until we have everything. Runs will still require Staff supervision until then. //Vraj Mehalana 18:01, 2 May 2023 (PDT)
