Forks

Simple tools that enable the carrying of specific sample holder types and wafers.

  • Forks are simple tools that enable the carrying of specific sample holder types and wafers.

    They usually require no mechanical actuation to grab a sample holder, instead realying on the geometric shape of the sample holder, or simply lifting an object onto static carrying arms.


    Typical Applications

    Ferrovac forks are available in various configurations to meet their specific application.

    • Wafer Handling: Easy transportation of large wafers, up to diameters of ~300mm.
    • Bulky Sample Holders: Forks are the most straight forward tools to carry bulky sample holder types, block-, or puck-style sample hodlers.
    • Custom Sample Holders: We'll gladly consider a custom solution that fits your specific application.

    Fork Type:

    Forks can be designed for a number of different sample holder types. The most common application of forks is in the handling of large wafers.

    Options:

    A number of additional design options are available for some of fork applications, such as the lifting mechanics for wafer handling.
