Apparatus for monitoring an exchanging process of a semiconductor part and a method for the same
Provided is an apparatus for monitoring an exchanging process of a semiconductor part and a method for the same. The apparatus comprises finger having a structure capable of loading the part and transferred by a robot for exchanging; and at least one image obtaining means coupled to the finger and obtaining an image of an exchanging position.
1. An apparatus for monitoring an exchanging process of a semiconductor part, comprising;
a finger having a pair of hands formed at one end portion thereof and an image obtaining means disposed in each of the hands, the finger being configured to be coupled with a robot arm;
a loading unit detachably attached on the finger, the loading unit being configured to load the semiconductor part; and
a processor disposed in the loading unit and wirelessly connected to the image obtaining means, the processor being configured to process an image obtained by the image obtaining means to be a wireless transmittable data and wirelessly transmit the wireless transmittable data to an external controlling unit.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor part is an edge ring to be coupled around a wafer, and the image includes an image for detecting a separation distance between an electrostatic chuck and the edge ring.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the image obtaining means includes: a camera module.
4. The apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the finger includes: a penetrating hole formed in each of the hands, the camera module being disposed over the penetrating hole.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the finger includes: a connector connected to the other end portion thereof, the connector being configured to be detachably coupled to the robot arm.
