Wafer Carriers
Wafer carriers are containers or trays used to safely hold, transport, store, or process semiconductor wafers.
They are commonly used in semiconductor fabs, research labs, universities, and wafer manufacturing.
Typical purposes include:
- protecting wafers from scratches, chips, particles, and contamination
- keeping wafers separated during shipping or storage
- handling wafers in cleanroom environments
- moving wafers between processing steps
Common types include single-wafer carriers, wafer trays, wafer cassettes, and wafer shipping boxes.
