1 Inch Wafer Cassette 16mm Diameter 25-Piece Capacity

The ​​1-inch wafer cassette​​ is a specialized container designed for the secure handling, transportation, and storage of small-diameter semiconductor wafers (1 inch). Its primary role is to provide physical protection, environmental isolation, and compatibility with automated systems, ensuring wafer integrity and process efficiency throughout semiconductor manufacturing workflows.

 ​​​​1 Inch Wafer Cassette Key Features​​

1. Enhanced Physical Protection​​

• ​​Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Mitigation​​: 1 Inch Wafer Cassette utilizes ESD-safe materials (e.g., conductive coatings, fluoropolymers) to shield wafers from electrostatic damage.
• ​​Shock Absorption​​: Silicone pads or rubberized inserts within grooves dampen vibrations and absorb impacts, critical for fragile 1-inch wafers.

​​

2. Environmental Control​​

• ​​Sealed Construction​​: 1 Inch Wafer Cassette prevents contamination from dust, humidity, and chemical vapors. Certain variants support vacuum or inert gas environments (e.g., nitrogen purging) for sensitive processes like lithography or etching.
• ​​Temperature Resistance​​: 1 Inch Wafer Cassette operates reliably across a wide temperature range (-20°C to 150°C), accommodating high-temperature annealing or low-temperature storage requirements.

3. ​​Automation-Ready Features​​

• ​​Standardized Interfaces​​: Top-mounted mechanical gripper slots or alignment pins enable precise docking with robotic arms and EFEM systems.
• ​​Positioning Locks​​: Magnetic or mechanical latches ensure wafers remain securely aligned during automated transfers, avoiding misalignment-induced equipment failures.

​​

4. Cost Efficiency​​

• Lightweight design optimized for 1-inch wafers reduces material costs while maintaining durability, ideal for R&D and small-batch production.
