Filed:
Apr 18, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/837878
Inventors:
Gordon Haggott Beckhart - Colorado Springs CO
Patrick Rooney Conarro - Green Mountain Falls CO
Kevin James Harrell - Woodland Park CO
Michael Charles Krause - Colorado Springs CO
Assignee:
MicroTool, Inc - Colorado Springs CO
International Classification:
G05B 1904
US Classification:
700254, 700214, 700218, 700186, 700245, 700252, 700258, 318567, 31856813, 31856814, 318574, 901 2, 901 4, 901 15, 41441603
Abstract:
A robot alignment system ( ) includes a sensor system ( ). The sensor system ( ) is designed to attach to an end effector of a robot arm ( ). A rough alignment target ( ) is attached to a work station. A fine alignment target ( ) is placed on a work surface of the work station. The sensor system ( ) first determines the rough alignment target ( ). The robot arm ( ) is then moved to detect the fine alignment target ( ).

Tool For Aligning A Robot Arm To A Cassette For Holding Semiconductor Wafers

US Patent:
6300644, Oct 9, 2001
Filed:
Jul 2, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/346867
Inventors:
Gordon Haggott Beckhart - Colorado Springs CO
Patrick Rooney Conarro - Cascade CO
Kevin James Harrell - Woodland Park CO
Michael Charles Krause - Colorado Springs CO
Assignee:
MicroTool, Inc. - Colorado Springs CO
International Classification:
G01B 1100
US Classification:
25055933
Abstract:
A tool for aligning a robot arm to a cassette for holding semiconductor wafers has a housing having a slot one position for holding a semiconductor wafer. A z-axis non-intrusive detector is attached to the housing and senses if the semiconductor wafer is aligned in the slot one position. An indicator is connected to the z-axis detector and provides a signal indicating when the semiconductor wafer is aligned in the slot one position.

Desiccant Substrate Package

US Patent:
5709065, Jan 20, 1998
Filed:
Jul 31, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/688723
Inventors:
Michael Krause - Colorado Springs CO
Assignee:
Empak, Inc. - Chanhassen MN
International Classification:
B65B 2900, B65B 3102, B65B 6308
US Classification:
53400
Abstract:
A method for protecting substrates used in the manufacture of semiconductors, memory products, and other electronic devices from the effects of moisture during transport and storage is disclosed. This method involves the use of a cassette or box made from polycarbonate or another material having similar hydroscopic properties, treating the cassette or box to reduce its moisture content, and surrounding the cassette or box, and the substrates held therein, with a moisture barrier. This results in a package which will keep the substrates dry and eliminates the need for a separate desiccant within the package.
