Detailed content
-
- The carbon – fiber composite provides rigidity and reduces the overall weight of the end – effector, while the non – slip coating ensures a secure grip on the wafer.
- Sensor Types: Integrates multiple sensors, including a force sensor, a proximity sensor, and a vision sensor. The force sensor can measure the force applied during wafer pickup and placement, with a sensitivity of 0.1 N. The proximity sensor can detect the presence of the wafer within a range of 10 mm, and the vision sensor can recognize wafer orientation and identify any defects on the wafer edge.
- Wafer Size Compatibility: Designed to handle wafers with diameters ranging from 100 mm to 300 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of semiconductor production lines.
- Functional Features:
- Gentle Wafer Handling: The force sensor allows the robot to adjust the grip force according to the wafer’s condition, preventing excessive force that could cause wafer breakage or damage to delicate structures on the wafer surface.
- Accurate Wafer Positioning: The proximity and vision sensors work together to ensure accurate wafer pickup and placement. The vision sensor can detect the wafer’s orientation and align it correctly with the target position, reducing the risk of misalignment during process transfers.
- Real – Time Monitoring and Feedback: The integrated sensors provide real – time data to the robot control system, allowing for immediate adjustments in the wafer handling process. This improves the overall efficiency and reliability of the wafer handling operation.
- Application Scenarios:
- High – Volume Semiconductor Manufacturing: Used in automated wafer handling systems in large – scale semiconductor fabs, where it transfers wafers between different process stations with high precision and speed, contributing to high – yield production.
- Advanced Packaging Processes: In semiconductor packaging, it handles wafers during die – attachment, wire – bonding, and molding processes, ensuring accurate placement of the die and preventing damage to the wafer and the packaged device.
