Used IRVINE OPTICAL / BROOKS AUTOMATION APS 408 #293601071 for sale

IRVINE OPTICAL / BROOKS AUTOMATION APS 408 Wafer Handler is an automated wafer handling equipment designed to transfer wafers in the semiconductor and MEMS industries. It's capable of transferring wafers from larger cassettes of up to 67mm in diameter, as well as a variety of other small parts. The system was designed for high performance capabilities, providing efficient and safe wafer transport and handling via a compact, modular design. The main components of IRVINE OPTICAL APS 408 Wafer Handler include a collection station, an alignment unit, a pick-and-place module, and a transfer unit. The collection station is used to orient and move wafers from larger cassette carriers to BROOKS AUTOMATION APS 408. It features a FOUP-style loading shuttle, which allows for precise loading and unloading of wafers and parts. The wafer alignment machine helps to precisely center wafers prior to pick-and-place operations. The unit utilizes two cameras and optical alignment markers to position and orient the wafers. It also has an adjustable width to provide quick and precise wafer alignment. The pick-and-place module is used to accurately transfer wafers from the alignment tool to the tooling plate of the transfer unit. This is done using a square ram pole with an end-effector. It also has a Z-sensor capability, allowing for multiple treatments of the same wafer. Finally, the transfer unit is used to transport the wafers to their destination. It features a unique, adjustable pin tooling plate to hold wafers and a belt transfer asset. This model helps ensure accurate wafer placement during transport, reduces vacuum loss, and helps reduce contamination by providing clean air during handling. In addition to the main components, APS 408 includes a user-friendly graphical interface, making it easy to configure and operate the equipment. It also features built-in safety features, such as over-temperature and over-current protection. Furthermore, it can be adapted to work with a variety of other automation systems, making it a cost-effective and scalable solution for a wide range of applications. Overall, IRVINE OPTICAL / BROOKS AUTOMATION APS 408 Wafer Handler is an efficient and reliable automated system designed to transfer wafers and other small parts. It's designed for precise alignment and pick-and-place operations, and its modular design makes it highly adaptable and cost-effective. As such, it's an ideal solution for many semiconductor and MEMS production needs.
