OVERVIEW
Chapter Issue 1 Aug 11 Wafer Transport Solution 3.5
In this application, because of the physical size of the pallets, it is not possible
to keep the safety covers in place and maintain the same level of operational
safety of a standard DEK printer. The line can be operated in manual, semi-
automatic or fully automatic feed modes. The safety cover(s) have to be
removed in the pallet loading areas. The safety cover(s) to be removed
depend upon the printer operation mode as described in the previous graphic.
Operators and maintainers should take care when working in or around the
loading areas of the printer as moving parts are present in these areas.
Safety Stops Safety stops are positioned on the rails at the opposite end to the pallet input.
They are fitted to each rail to physically prevent the pallet from running off the
rail ends should the user inadvertently change the transport rail direction.
Safety stops should only be fitted to the opposite end in a same feed/return
direction configuration:
• Right to Right (fit on the left)
• Left to Left (fit on the right)
