Electronic device manufacturing systems and methods are provided. In some aspects, a system having a dual-mode robot is provided which is disposed within a system component (e.g., a factory interface or transfer chamber) and adapted to operate in a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the robot may transfer a substrate between components of the system (e.g., between a carrier and a process chamber or chamber to chamber) and in the second mode, the robot may execute a process motion profile (e.g., metrology).
