NADAtech automation tools supporting precision wafer manufacturing processes across advanced semiconductor fabs

High-Speed Wafer Sorters

Eliminating Throughput Bottlenecks in High-Volume Fabs

NADAtech’s High-Speed Wafer Sorter delivers industry-leading speed, wafers-per-hour (WPH), and automation performance for high-volume semiconductor manufacturing. Purpose-built to remove wafer handling bottlenecks, the system combines high-speed robotics, optimized motion control, and ultra-clean performance—all within an exceptionally compact footprint designed for modern fabs.

Built For Fabs That Can’t Afford Slowdowns

  • Industry-Leading Throughput

Optimized motion control with high-speed aligners dramatically reduces transfer times, delivering best-in-class WPH for high-volume wafer sorting operations. The platform is engineered to sustain throughput gains under real production conditions, helping fabs increase output without introducing new constraints downstream.

  • True Multi-Diameter Flexibility

Designed to support evolving fab requirements, the system enables efficient handling across multiple wafer sizes, including:

    • 150mm, 200mm, and 300mm substrates
    • FOUP, FOSB, and open cassette configurations
    • Fully integrated or port-specific bridge configurations

This flexibility makes the sorter ideal for mixed-node environments, technology transitions, and fabs scaling new capacity.

  • Ultra-Compact Footprint

Featuring one of the smallest multi-port footprints in its class, the High-Speed Wafer Sorter maximizes cleanroom efficiency while maintaining full throughput performance. The compact design allows fabs to increase capacity without expanding valuable cleanroom space.
