Single Substrate Vacuum Transfer Systems
Hine’s Star Systems are automated load locks designed to eliminate the need to vent and evacuate the OEMs process chamber prior to every process cycle. Our Star Systems offers various levels of functionality and integration that meets technical and budgetary requirements of most OEM applications including Atomic Layer Deposition, Physical Vapor Deposition, Chemical Vapor Deposition, Metal and Oxide Etch, MR Head Deposition, MEMS, and compound semiconductor applications.
† SEMI standard sizes available and custom end effectors available upon request.
‡ Measured as three standard deviations (3σ)
* End effector design may impact max payload capability
** Maximum reach measured from the edge of the slit valve
*** Vertical stroke is optional
