ARGOS 150HT / 200HT

ARGOS 150HT / 200HT

ARGOS technology

The ARGOS system for macro defect inspection is easy to operate and does not require to write any recipes. It also enables 100% inspection of all wafer during the process of lithography with a throughput that is equal to, or faster that of a lithography cluster. In consequence, we enable our customers to move from sample inspection to inspection of all wafer and from manual inspection by operators to a statistically reliable, automated inspection process.

Used in: 
Semiconductor manufacturing - Front-END(Lithography)

Key differences: 
Closed Frame Tool; HT = high throughput

Key Features: 
Simultaneous wafer handling from 2 open cassette ports for high throughput;  small footprint; recipeless operation
