The UV-9200 and UV-9300 are automatic UV curing systems designed for wafers from 6" to 8" (200mm) and 8" to 12" (300mm) respectively.
Manufactured by AE Advanced Engineering LTD., this system offers a complete solution for UV curing of wafers in the semiconductor industry.
The UV-9X00 stands out for its versatility, supporting 6”, 8” and 12” wafers, making it suitable for various applications and production sizes.
One of the major advantages of the UV-9X00 is its fully automatic operation.
- This feature eliminates the need for manual contact with wafers during processing, reducing contamination risks and increasing process repeatability.
- The system features a continuous processing cycle, which optimizes production time and improves overall process efficiency.
The UV-9200 and UV-9300 models feature several advantageous technical features :
- Fully automatic operation, eliminating the need for manual contact with wafers,
- Continuous treatment cycle for optimum efficiency,
- Familiar and easy-to-use Windows software interface,
- Ozone-free UV irradiation source, ensuring a safe working environment,
- Low cost of ownership,
- Small footprint of 58 × 111 cm, ideal for limited production spaces.
The system uses an effective UV wavelength of 365 nm and can process up to 12 wafers in just 8 minutes, providing high productivity.
The UV-9200 and UV-9300 systems offer a simple and effective UV treatment process :
- The operator inserts the wafer cassette and starts the process,
- The system automatically scans the cassette to determine occupied slots,
- The wafers are transported and exposed individually according to the programmed recipe,
- The system optimizes processing time by preparing the next wafer while the current wafer is being exposed,
- Once the treatment is complete, the operator can remove the cassette.
Additionally, the UV-9300 offers additional features such as :
- Online measurement of UV intensity,
- Special operating mode for recipe formulation and testing,
- Safety interlocks for operator protection,
- User configurable signal lamps.
