The Shoe Pick Up 125mm 3mm Edge PEEK is a precision wafer handling component used in Applied Materials (AMAT) semiconductor equipment to support safe wafer pickup, transfer, positioning, and handling within automated wafer transport systems.
Manufactured from PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone), a high-performance engineering thermoplastic widely used in semiconductor manufacturing, the pickup shoe is designed to contact the wafer edge while minimizing particle generation, contamination risk, and mechanical stress during transfer operations. Proper wafer handling is critical to maintaining yield, preventing breakage, and holding equipment performance consistent throughout high-volume production environments.
The ES3033-084 pickup shoe is engineered for use with 125 mm wafer handling applications and features a 3 mm edge contact profile, allowing controlled interaction with the wafer perimeter while protecting critical device surfaces from direct contact.
