Wafer Cleaning System

Wafer Cleaning System

Orbray’s wafer cleaning system - the world's first cleaning tool enabling high quality cleaning and drying for wafers less than 2 inches in diameter.
Until now, cleaning for new materials, such as small crystals or wafers less than 2 inches in diameter, has been limited to processes such as dip cleaning, resulting in unsatifactory cleanliness. Because of this, it has been a challenge to make devices that are able to utilize these new, advanced materials to their full potential.

Our wafer cleaning system has been built on Orbray's own cleaning know-how, developed through the manufacturing of sapphire wafers for LED applications, and features a newly-developed, original cleaning/drying mechanism for small-sized wafers. With these new functions, our wafer cleaning system has a capability of high level cleaning and solves the previous issues of cleaning, which had become an obstacle in the development of these new, advanced materials.

Through Orbray’s wafer cleaning systems, we strongly supports the development of new advanced materials and manufacturing of related devices.
