Customer's concerns and problems / Before

Previously, the wafer holding section used a resin-based End Effector / Handling Arm, but because it wears out during use, frequent replacement was required.

Our proposals and improvement effects / After

We also made a proposal to fabricate the resin part of the wafer holding section using ceramics materials.


Ceramics are light weight, high strength, and have excellent durability.


The frequency of inspections and replacement of End Effector / Handling Arm was reduced, leading to cost reductions and productivity UP.

Point of the proposed example / Point

The point of this case is that the product life has been extended several times by using ceramics resin materials.


By taking advantage of the light weight, high rigidity, and high strength that are characteristics of ceramics, it is possible to achieve excellent effects.


The Fine Ceramics Division of ASUZAC Corporation, which operates the Ceramics Design Laboratory, handles everything from material development and preparation to design and manufacture, as well as surface treatment, inspection, and cleaning.


We can also offer our own coating-technology for adding functionality to ceramics materials, as well as the selection of materials such as ceramics materials with high heat resistance and conductivity, and high-purity alumina and SiC that are highly pure and prevent contamination.
