M-02025 Robot Brochure.qxd 8/31/06 3:25 PM Page 7 PREALIGNERS TRACK SYSTEMS Both integrated and external prealigners use transmissive sensors located within the prealigner to sense the wafer’s edge and accurately measure location and orientation during a single rotation. They accurately detect any combination of SEMI standard wafer alignment features. Kensington Laboratories’ standard track solutions provide high acceleration and overall speed in a reliable and proven design. The track and robot are mounted vertically, eliminating errors and problems associated with conventional bottom mounted cantilevered systems. Our track systems can also be equipped with integrated alignment features that assure the locational accuracy of other critical automation elements of the system, such as 300mm pod doors and load ports. External Our external prealigner is designed to mount inside the front end of the tool. It provides high throughput, up to 450 wafers per hour, while maintaining cleanliness, accuracy, and reliability. It also allows our edge grip and transmissive sensor equipped robots to perform an automated one-step self teach. Unlike typical linear motor driven track systems that are incapable of sensing objects and can be extremely dangerous to both operators and the integrity of your tool; our track systems employ multiple safety mechanisms that can sense if the system has struck an object and automatically shut the system down to prevent or minimize damage.
