Kinik-USA is the North American arm of Kinik Company Taiwan, the leading manufacturer of superabrasive products in South Asia since 1953. Kinik-USA is focused on advanced diamond disk abrasives for chemical-mechanical-polishing (CMP) urethane pad conditioning. Kinik Company is the maker of the world's most advanced lines of diamond disks for CMP, offering pads with predictable polishing rates and product life. Kinik's CMP diamond disks are used by approximately a quarter of all major semiconductor fabs across the globe, and are steadily headed toward becoming the de-facto standard for pad conditioning in the marketplace. Read more about CMP and Kinik-USA's previous presentations on its diamond disk product lines here.
NEW PRODUCTS, FALL 2005: Kinik-USA is now offering new advanced diamond pad conditioners with different substrates, substantially different from other products in the market, offering improved flatness, better corrosion resistance and longer lifetimes. These products are ideal for Copper processes and for soft conditioning applications such as ECMP.

Note Kinik-USA diamond disk, with strong braze-attached diamonds, arranged in a consistent pattern across a stainless steel base, on left and randomly oriented crystals in typical electroplated diamond disk on right. Kinik-USA diamond disks offer highly regular polishing patterns, consistent removal rates and very low defect count, due to no diamond pullout because of our brazed chemical bonding to the diamond.
