AI Technical Summary
[0002]在半导体生产制造过程中,在半导体制造过程中,清洗刻蚀是其核心工艺之一,能够直接决定芯片的良率与性能,目前常见的晶圆清洗刻蚀设备包括单片设备与批式设备,其中批式设备中,晶圆存放在晶圆盒内后传输进入后续清洗作业,一般采用人工推送晶圆盒的方式,该方式自动化程度低,极大的影响了晶圆的清洗效率
[0014]本实用新型的有益效果是,本系统通过设置有转运机构、升降机构以及驱动机构,利用转运机构抓取晶圆盒放置位内的晶圆盒,随后利用升降机构与驱动机构,带动晶圆盒进行竖直、水平方向的移动,最终将晶圆盒送入后续清洗作业,此过程中仅需人工将晶圆盒放置在晶圆盒放置位内,后续晶圆盒的转运实现自动化控制,减少人力使用,提高后续晶圆清洗的效率。
