Problems solved by technology

However, in practical applications, due to various environmental factors, such as uneven elevated floors in the factory or slight deformation of shelves, the relative positional relationship between the robotic arm and the wafer carrier or machine equipment may change, resulting in incorrect Pick and place wafer carriers

Abstract

The invention relates to a control method of a mechanical arm device for conveying a wafer carrier and the mechanical arm device. The mechanical arm device comprises a mechanical arm, a clamping jaw device, an image acquisition module, a distance sensing unit and a control module, wherein the clamping jaw device comprises two clamping jaw structures and a movable assembly; the two jaw structures are connected with the movable assembly; the control module can control the two jaw structures to be close to each other or away from each other; the image acquisition module is arranged on the clamping jaw device and used for acquiring images of the wafer carrier within a preset range and being capable of generating corresponding image acquisition information; the distance sensing unit is used forsensing a plurality of preset positions of the wafer carrier and correspondingly generating multiple distance sensing information; and the control module can correspondingly control the clamping jawdevice according to the image acquisition information, the multiple distance sensing information and the preset position information in a database, so that the clamping jaw device is capable of picking up and placing the wafer carrier correctly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot arm device and a control method thereof, in particular to a robot arm device for transporting a wafer carrier and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] During the wafer manufacturing process, the semi-finished wafers are mostly placed on the wafer carrier, and the wafer carrier is picked and placed by a robot arm. Generally speaking, the robotic arm will pick up the wafer carrier at a predetermined position or place the wafer carrier at a predetermined position according to a predetermined path. However, in practical applications, due to various environmental factors, such as uneven elevated floors in the factory or slight deformation of shelves, the relative positional relationship between the robotic arm and the wafer carrier or machine equipment may change, resulting in incorrect Pick and place wafer carriers in a precise manner. Contents of the invention [0003] The main purpose of the present...
