The device is equipped with a ring-shaped sliding rail conductive structure. During polishing, the silicon carbide substrate to be polished is placed on the ring-shaped protrusion 22 of the rubber disc 21. Then, the air pump 19 is started, and the air extraction pipe 18 can effectively extract the air inside the connecting seat 20, thereby generating suction at the air intake of the connecting seat 20. Since the air intake is distributed in the gap between two adjacent protrusions 22, the silicon carbide substrate can be effectively adsorbed and fixed. At the same time, the rubber protrusions 22 can provide good lateral anti-slip effect, thereby improving the stability of the silicon carbide substrate on the upper end of the adsorption seat 3, ensuring that the silicon carbide substrate can be polished stably and effectively, and preventing the sides of the silicon carbide substrate from being squeezed and damaged during the adsorption process. In addition, by setting multiple adsorption seats 3 on the turntable 2, the silicon carbide substrate adsorbed on each adsorption seat 3 can be processed independently, which can effectively improve the functionality and processing efficiency of the device.

A polishing motor 6 is fixedly installed at one end of the polishing arm 5. A polishing disk 7 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft of the polishing motor 6. When the silicon carbide substrate moves directly below the polishing disk 7, the polishing motor 6 is started. The polishing motor 6 drives the polishing disk 7 to rotate. Then, the first linear module 4 drives the polishing arm 5 and the polishing disk 7 to descend in height, thereby performing a polishing operation on the silicon carbide substrate.

A mounting hole is provided in the middle of the lamp holder 9, and an optical camera 10 is fixedly installed inside the mounting hole. A ring-shaped lighting lamp is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the lamp holder 9. After polishing, when the polished silicon carbide substrate is moved directly under the lamp holder 9, the lighting lamp illuminates the surface of the silicon carbide substrate, and at the same time, the optical camera 10 takes a picture of the polished surface of the silicon carbide substrate and transmits it to the image analysis system. After optical analysis, the result is obtained, which enables the device to have the function of optical detection.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 A second linear module 11 is provided on one side of the base 1. A hydraulic rod 12 is fixedly connected to the moving end of the second linear module 11. A rotary cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 12. A connecting arm 14 is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the rotary cylinder 13. A suction cup 15 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting arm 14. When the silicon carbide substrate after optical inspection moves to the unloading position, the hydraulic rod 12 is retracted so that the suction cup 15 can adsorb the silicon carbide substrate. Then, the hydraulic rod 12 is extended to raise the height of the silicon carbide substrate. Then, the rotary cylinder 13 is activated, and the second linear module 11 is moved at the same time to adjust the position of the suction cup 15, thereby transferring the adsorbed silicon carbide substrate to the designated position, realizing automatic unloading operation. At the same time, during the unloading process, defective products are sorted out, and the functionality and practicality are further improved.
[0030] Working principle: In use, first install the device at the designated location, then place the silicon carbide substrate to be polished on the annular protrusion 22 of the rubber disc 21. Next, start the air pump 19. At this time, the air extraction pipe 18 can effectively extract the air inside the connecting seat 20, thereby generating suction at the air intake of the connecting seat 20. Since the air intake is distributed in the gap between two adjacent protrusions 22, it can effectively adsorb and fix the silicon carbide substrate. At the same time, the rubber protrusions 22 provide good lateral anti-slip effect, thereby improving the stability of the silicon carbide substrate on the upper end of the adsorption seat 3. Then, start the motor 17, which drives the turntable 2 to rotate, moving the silicon carbide substrate to the polishing position. When the silicon carbide substrate moves directly below the polishing disc 7, start the polishing motor 6, which drives the polishing disc 7 to rotate. Then, the first linear module 4 drives the polishing arm 5 and the polishing disc 7 to descend, thereby polishing the silicon carbide substrate. Then, rotate... The rotating turntable 2 moves the polished silicon carbide substrate to the detection position. At this time, the polishing disc 7 performs a new round of polishing operation. Simultaneously, the illumination lamp illuminates the surface of the silicon carbide substrate, and the optical camera 10 takes a picture of the polished surface of the silicon carbide substrate and transmits it to the image analysis system. After optical analysis, the result is obtained. After the inspection is completed, the silicon carbide substrate moves to the unloading position as the turntable 2 rotates. At this time, the unloading position is selected according to the detection structure. During unloading, the hydraulic rod 12 is retracted so that the suction cup 15 can adsorb the silicon carbide substrate. Then, the hydraulic rod 12 is extended to raise the height of the silicon carbide substrate. Then, the rotary cylinder 13 is activated, and the second linear module 11 is moved to adjust the position of the suction cup 15, thereby transferring the adsorbed silicon carbide substrate to the designated position to realize automatic unloading operation. At the same time, during the unloading process, defective products are sorted out. This device can perform loading, polishing, optical inspection, unloading or defective product sorting operations simultaneously.
