    摘要: An autoteach system includes an autoteach pin that is a scannable feature having a fixed position within the autoteach system. The autoteach pin enables an autoteach operation of a robot arm of the wafer processing system. The autoteach operation is an operation to automatically teach the fixed position within the autoteach system to the robot arm of the wafer processing system. The autoteach pin includes a first portion including a cylindrical sidewall. The robot arm is to use the first portion to locate the fixed position within the autoteach system. The autoteach portion further includes a second portion including planar sidewalls that are configured to enable calibration of robot arm error.

    摘要: A robot apparatus is configured to extend a first end effector into a first process chamber and extend a second end effector into a second process chamber. The first process chamber and the second process chamber are separated by a first pitch. The robot apparatus is further configured to retract the first end effector and the second end effector into a rectangular mainframe while maintaining a distance between the substrates bounded by the first pitch throughout a retraction process, and fold the first end effector and the second end effector inward within a sweep diameter defined by a width of the rectangular mainframe.

    摘要: An autoteach enclosure system includes a plurality of surfaces that at least partially enclose an interior volume of the autoteach enclosure system. The autoteach enclosure system further includes an autoteach pin at least partially disposed within the interior volume. The autoteach pin is a scannable feature having a fixed position within the autoteach enclosure system. The autoteach enclosure system further includes a front interface coupled to one or more of the plurality of surfaces to interface the autoteach enclosure system with a substantially vertical portion of a load port of a wafer processing system. The autoteach pin enables an autoteach operation of a robot arm of the wafer processing system. The autoteach operation is an operation to automatically teach the fixed position within the autoteach enclosure system to the robot arm of the wafer processing system.
