Applications
- General use: Vacuum wands are utilized to pick up and transport wafers from one location to another without adding particles.
- Sorting: For manual wafer sorting applications, vacuum wands allow operators to move wafers safely and precisely within a parent lot. They can also be used to combine lots together, add test wafers, and replace any damaged wafers, as necessary.
- Inspection - Operators can use vacuum wands to pull out a wafer from a parent lot and inspect it under specialized lighting to look for defects. This ensures that the process has been successful and that the wafer meets the required specifications
The WHS-V3 series offers advanced vacuum cord solutions engineered for cleanroom environments requiring reliable, antistatic handling. Each cord is made from blue polyurethane with a 6.35mm (0.250”) outside diameter and features a black conductive inside ground path, ensuring both durability and ESD protection while maintaining flexibility, even in low-humidity conditions.
The WHS-V3-SCS is a straight cord option with the same 2-meter working length but without the coiled design. Like the WHS-V3-CCS, it includes an internal spring cable and is further enhanced with ground fittings for additional stability and ESD protection.
All WHS-V3 cords are compatible with WHS vacuum wands and are constructed with a specially engineered durometer material. This gives the cords a lightweight, spring-like feel for smooth, ergonomic handling. The thick wall polyurethane construction resists crimping and prevents breakthroughs, ensuring long-term reliability.
These cords meet the highest standards for cleanroom safety, cleanliness, and performance.
