EFEM FAQ
EFEM FAQ
  • Q: What are the customization options for your EFEM?
    A: Customizable options include pod type compatibility, wafer size, number of load ports, robotic arms, EEF types, purge systems, and RFID integration to meet specific fab requirements.
  • Q: Does your EFEM support OHT (Overhead Transport) systems?
    A: Absolutely. Our EFEMs are OHT compatible, allowing for automated pod delivery and retrieval in modern fabs.
  • Q: Can your EFEM integrate with existing process tools?
    A: Yes, our EFEMs are designed for seamless integration with a wide range of semiconductor process tools and are compliant with SEMI standards like E19.4.
  • Q: What cleanliness level does the EFEM maintain?
    A: Our EFEM systems are designed to meet ISO Class 1 cleanliness standards with active air flow control and optional purge features to maintain a contamination-free environment.
  • Q: Is your EFEM compatible with both FOUP and SMIF pod types?
    A: Yes, our EFEMs can be configured to support both FOUP and SMIF systems, including RSP 200 and EUV pods, ensuring flexibility for various fab environments.
  • Q: What is an EFEM and what does it do?
    A: An EFEM (Equipment Front End Module) is a subsystem used in semiconductor manufacturing equipment to handle wafer loading, unloading, alignment, and environmental control between the FOUP/SMIF pod and the process chamber. It ensures precise, clean, and automated wafer handling.
  • Q: What types of wafer sizes are supported by EFEMs?
    A: Most EFEMs are designed to support 200mm and 300mm wafers, depending on the configuration. Custom options may be available for other wafer sizes.
