The support frame 6 is driven to move by the linear motor 2, and the support frame 6 drives the detection plate 15 to move. If the detection plate 15 encounters a thicker semiconductor wafer during the movement, the detection plate 15 will contact the thicker semiconductor wafer and squeeze the spring 14. At the same time, the detection plate 15 will contact the contact switch 17, thereby turning off the linear motor 2. Then the detection block 12 is driven to move by the power component, so that the detection block 12 detects the semiconductor wafers in the same row, thereby detecting the thicker semiconductor wafers in the same row.

The first threaded rod 8 will move through the threaded engagement with the threaded hole, thereby driving the support plate 4 to move vertically upward through the guide rod 9. The support plate 4 will push the placement plate 5 to move upward. When the placement plate 5 moves upward to a suitable position, the support frame 6 is driven to move by the linear motor 2, and the support frame 6 will drive the detection plate 15 to move. If the detection plate 15 encounters a thicker semiconductor wafer during the movement, the detection plate 15 will contact the thicker semiconductor wafer at this time, and the detection plate 15 will squeeze the spring 14.
