    摘要: An enclosed conduit such as a tube, and a method for processing webs with a liquid solution, wherein the web is positioned helically around the periphery of the tube. The tube has openings, such as being porous, at least in the helical path of the web. A liquid solution cushion or bearing is formed between the web and periphery of the tube in at least the helical path of the web by continuously directing the liquid solution outwardly through the openings. In one embodiment, the web is transported by drive rollers or belts against which the web is forced, and edge deflected between the convolutions of a helical rail or band wrapped around the periphery of the tube. In another embodiment, the tube is provided with axially spaced, radially extending protuberances on its periphery for edge deflecting the web along a helical path.

    摘要: A distributed control system for a semiconductor wafer processing machine includes a master control module and a plurality of application control modules. Each of the application control modules and the master control module are capable of autonomous, independent operation. The master control module regulates the operation of the application control modules, and the application control modules govern a number of sub-procedures carried out by the wafer processing machine. The sub-procedures may be governed by respective processing recipes that are downloaded from the master control module to the application control modules via a network link architecture.

    摘要: A machine for polishing semiconductor wafers including a rotatable index table and a drive mechanism for the index table. The index table temporarily accommodates wafers between processing steps. The drive mechanism includes a continuously circulating grooved timing belt that engages gear teeth formed on an outside diameter portion of the index table to effect rotation of the index table. The index table includes a large diameter central opening for accommodating passage of other system components.
