WAFER RECLAIM
EFFICIENCY STARTS
with the material
Supply bottlenecks, diversified requirements and exploding costs at the same time: High-quality material such as silicon or gallium arsenide is the linchpin of the semiconductor industry - and at the same time its Achilles’ heel. With ever larger substrate diameters, material is becoming a growing challenge. No wonder many wafer fabs today employ a consistent reclaim strategy for their test wafers in particular. Efficient reclaiming and recycling requires measurable reliability:
- Sorting, stripping, lapping and grinding, polishing & cleaning: measure all reclaiming steps in a process reliable way.
- Cost-effective and reproducible measurement systems for reclaim & recycling
- Sophisticated, individual automation solutions
- Special materials: glass, quartz, gallium arsenide, etc.
- Fast tools with high throughput up to 1,000 wafers per hour
WAFER RECLAIM:
(R)evolution of Efficiency
The global pandemic has painfully crystallized a fundamental problem of the semiconductor industry:
Barely manageable material costs and disruption-prone supply chains determine market dynamics.
The very costly wafer and chip production in particular benefits from recycling and reclaiming the expensive semiconductor materials.

SOLAR CELL RECYCLING:
Make Energy Transition Measurable
Energy transition and resource planning are at the origin of the photovoltaic industry. Now, renowned research institutes are working on a sustainable return and recycling of the valuable silicon of photovoltaic modules at the end of their service life. Crucial for all steps of the recycling process is process reliability, repeatability and exact results for the most diverse requirements.
-
Long-term experience in the photovoltaic industry and the manufacturing processes for solar modules.
-
Proven material and measurement expertise also in novel recycling and reclaiming processes.
-
Customized design of complex measuring lines and individual measuring systems.
