Semi-automatic wet bench with two process chambers and a dry-in/dry-out functionality
TwinStep
AP&S PRODUCTS
Etching, cleaning and drying in an unbeatably compact footprint
This plant convinces by its very compact design. Functionality with optimum process control takes place here in two process chambers. The dry-in/dry-out function is suitable for a wide range of applications. Reliability and simplicity meet state-of-the-art wet process technology, making the TwinStep an optimal entry-level batch model as well as the first-choice supplementary tool when the available clean room is tight.
