Top Grip End-Effectors
The top grip end-effectors (mTG series) are designed for chip side handling of thin and warped wafers e.g. for handling from a pre-aligner onto a process chuck or onto an inspection table.
Types according to wafer size:
- 150 mm / 6” (end-effector mTG 150)
- 200 mm / 8” (end-effector mTG 200)
Function:
By using Bernoulli airflow the wafer is only touched at the edge exclusion area at the front side, the process area is safe. They enable direct handling onto a process chuck and do not require lift pins or an aperture for standard vacuum end-effectors.
The 200 mm top grip end-effector comes optional as a ring end-effector which allows the handling of extremely warped wafers.
Features:
- Wafer sizes: 150 mm (6”), 200 mm (8”)
- For thin wafers > 50 µm (2 mil)
- Warped wafer handling (up to 12 mm warpage)
- Chip side handling
- Bernoulli airflow and vacuum (edge)
- Automated quick coupling
- Automated loading and unloading of several mechatronic components
