In today's fast-paced industrial environment, efficiency and accuracy are paramount, particularly in the modern semiconductor industry. The tray handling process in Tray-based Vision Handler is a repetitive manual task that demands frequent human intervention, leading to inefficiencies.
In addition, transporting trays from tray stocker to machine within production is, typically, a low-skill task that adds little or no value to the operation. With Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR), it automates tray transportation, allowing operators to stay in their primary work area to perform other valuable tasks. Therefore, integrating AMR into this process is revolutionising the way the semiconductor industry operates, addressing these challenges head-on.
ViTrox’s T3000i machine is at the forefront of this technological shift. Designed with future-proofing in mind, T3000i is fully compatible with AMR integration, reflecting our commitment to innovation and adaptability. This forward-thinking design ensures that our users can seamlessly incorporate AMR into their operations, leveraging cutting-edge automation trends without disruptions. By aligning with the evolving landscape of automation, we empower our users to achieve unparalleled efficiency and accuracy.
The tray-focused design of the grippers on AMR ensures stable and efficient tray loading and unloading on the T3000i machine. Equipped with vision technology, AMR can accurately read tray barcodes, guaranteeing the correct trays are being transferred. The AMR also scans target jigs for precise tray positioning, further enhancing accuracy. Additionally, each AMR is equipped with three high-capacity compartments, each capable of holding up to 25 trays. This design ensures continuous and timely tray handling, significantly enhancing overall operational productivity and streamlining workflow.
Apart from boosting production efficiency, safety is a critical consideration in any industrial environment. Our AMR is equipped with sensors to avoid accidents and ensure safe operation alongside human workers. These safety sensors provide 270° coverage, ensuring comprehensive detection and protection and promoting a safer work environment for our users.
One of the most impressive features of AMR is its reprogrammable nature. They can be swiftly reconfigured and deployed as production demands change, significantly reducing the time and cost associated with hiring and training human operators. This flexibility allows for rapid adaptation, ensuring users’ operations remain agile and responsive to evolving production needs.
Moreover, we have exciting news for our valued T3000i users: the On-Field Upgradability feature is available for users aiming to transition to lights-out factories. Our skilled engineers can perform the upgrades directly at the users’ production site, ensuring the existing machines can seamlessly integrate the latest AMR technology without the need for extensive downtime or costly replacements.
AMRs are transforming workflows and boosting productivity across the semiconductor industry. Partnering with ViTrox ensures a streamlined process from selection to implementation, maximising the return on investment and future-proofing the production capabilities.
