    摘要: An apparatus for supporting a stationary or moving substantially flat object without physical contact on an fluid-cushion. The object floats on a fluid cushion gap, the apparatus aimed for globally or locally adjusting the gap. The apparatus comprising: a first platform for supporting the object without contact, the platform having a substantially flat active surface comprised of one or more sectors, each sector comprising at least one of a plurality of basic cells, each basic cell having at least one of a plurality of pressure outlets fluidically connected through a pressure flow restrictors to a higher-pressure manifold associated with the sector in which the basic cell lies, the higher-pressure manifold is fluidically connected through main supply pipeline to pressurized fluid supply and at least one of a plurality of fluid-evacuation channels fluidically connected to a lower-pressure manifold associated with the sector in which the basic cell lies having main evacuation pipeline; wherein the flow restrictor characteristically exhibiting fluidic return spring behavior; and wherein at least one pressure control valve is interposed with at least one of the two main pipelines of at least one sector for controlling pressure levels of at least one of the two manifolds of that sector.

    摘要: The invention relates to a wafer inspection device (1). Said device comprises an air-cushioned table (2), which can be displaced in two directions (X,Y) that are perpendicular to one another. Several air nozzles (12, 14) are provided for this purpose. At least one valve (29) is connected to at least one electric control unit (27), said valve (29) being configured in such a way that a normal pressure prevails in the air nozzles (12, 14), when the electric control unit (27) delivers a corresponding signal.
