Double layer detection of solar wafers in wafer production
Wafers are light and thin, and stick easily, especially during the cleaning process. Stuck wafers must be detected quickly, as they will likely break and damage others. SICK’s WLL180T fiber-optic sensor coupled with wide bandwidth fibers (LL3), use a 1450 nm infrared beam to penetrate the wafer, instantly detecting stacked wafers.
