A PRIMARY APPLICATION OF OUR SUPER CONVEYORS:
AN AUTOMATED WAFER TRANSFER NETWORK IN
SEMICONDUCTOR FRONT END FACTORIES


  • Its global mission in this industry is to correct the defects of existing AMHS (the discrete vehicle based material handling systems).
  • These existing systems require the excessive accumulations of work in process, thus degrading factory cycle time efficiency.

THE EXCESSIVE WORK FLOW STORAGE OF THE DISCRETE VEHICLE BASED SYSTEMS (CENTRAL STOCKERS AND STORAGE SHELVES IN PRODUCTION BAYS) IS REDUCED WITH DYNAMIC EQUIPMENT BUFFERS (DEB) BASED ON OUR SUPER CONVEYORS.


The primary benefit in using DEBs is the increased utilization efficiency of the existing vehicle transport lines (defined as the number of transport moves with payload vs. the total number of vehicle moves)
