AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the adsorption method during wafer flipping can easily damage the wafer, affecting the yield rate of the production line.
Design a wafer flipping unit that uses a flipping component and a flipping shaft structure. By switching the receiving position of the flipping component in different states, the wafer can be flipped 180 degrees, avoiding direct adsorption operation.
This enables low-damage wafer flipping, improving wafer production yield.
