  8. Motivations from Gram load adjustment • Increasing Magnetic Recording Density requires lower and tighter flying height distribution. • Suspension Preload is a significant contributor to the flying height. Even more important for femto sliders. • HGA (Head Gimble Assembly) and HSA (Head Stack Assembly) processes can produce significant shift of the mean and sigma of gram load and flying height. • Gram load adjust can be used to compensate for the deviations caused by crown,camber, etch depths, PSA, stacking tolerances etc. on the flying heights.

  9. Motivations from Gram load adjustment Crown (C) is the maximum separation between the cylindrical contour along the flying direction and an imaginary plane drawn between leading and trailing edges of the ABS. Camber has a similar definition in the perpendicular direction between the two sides of the slider.
