    摘要: The present invention provides an apparatus and method for protecting a work piece during surface processing. The apparatus employs a protective material to protect a wafer during backside grinding. The apparatus can further include a vacuum chuck that allows the passage of a vacuum signal, a frame holding the protective material, a frame holder to hold the frame, and a fastening arrangement to fasten the frame holder to the chuck adjacent a support surface. The method provided by the invention can include providing a vacuum chuck, placing a protective material in contact with the chuck, placing a wafer in contact with the protective material, applying a vacuum signal securing the wafer with the chuck, and grinding the backside surface of the wafer.

    摘要: A grinding assembly for shaping work pieces that includes one or more grind spindles. Each of the grind spindles include two independent grinding wheels driven by a single spindle drive. The grind spindles translate horizontally to perform both edge and face grinding with a single grind spindle. A non-contact position sensor in a work spindle measures work spindle displacement during grinding and provides feedback to the grind spindle to regulate the force imparted on the work piece by the grind spindle. In variations, an abrasive wheel disposed radially with respect to an axis of spindle rotation is utilized to perform edge grinding of the work piece. In other variations cleaning, polishing and grinding are carried out in a single grinding assembly. In yet other variations, a wheel dressing apparatus is utilized to dress the wheel when one or more forces to maintain productivity of the grind wheel exceed a threhold.

    摘要: The present embodiments provide methods, systems and apparatuses for use in grinding work pieces, such as wafers. Some embodiments provide methods that position a grind spindle to contact a first grinding spindle to a face of a work piece, remove a portion of the face, and control the removing of the portion of the face according to a control algorithm. This control algorithm can comprise determining a force applied to the work piece during the removing of the portion of the face, adjusting a feed rate of the first grind spindle when the force applied to the work piece has a predefined relationship with a first threshold level; and dressing a portion of the first grinding portion when the force applied to the work piece has a predefined relationship with a second threshold level that is greater than the first threshold.
