Wafer Handling Equipment
Our principal, NBS, provides high-quality wafer packing/ unpacking equipment that comes with a low cost of ownership. Our equipment helps to prevent damage that often results from manual handling of wafers and it also provides complete wafer traceability. NBS’ tools are designed with a small footprint and are ESD (electrostatic discharge) safe.
Silicon Connection has been an exclusive sales and service partner of NBS Semiconductor in the South East Asia region since 2007.
NBS Wafer Packing WPC EVO2
The latest model, WPC EVO2, quickly and safely sorts/ transfers 200mm and/or 300 mm silicon wafers between a variety of industry standard cassettes and “coin stack” horizontal wafer shippers. EVO2 automatically manages every step of the packing process including the verification of each wafer handled. With the help of sensors and camera system, EVO is capable of handling various brands and types of wafer packing materials such as conductive PE or Tyvek interleaf, HWS, FOUP, FOSB etc.
WPC EVO2 has a high wafer packing/ unpacking speed, making it a reliable solution for your automated wafer storage and shipment needs. A typical EVO2 can achieve instantaneous throughput of up to 145 wafers per hour during packing mode, and a throughput of 135 wafers per hour during unpacking.
Other unique offerings and options by NBS Semiconductor:
- E-84 FOUP Transfers option with AMHS.
- EMR – Extra Media Reservoir (min 8hrs of consumables).
- HWS Buffer system – 24 hrs capacity.
- Work cell/ equipment loading by external robot.
- Automated bagging, vacuuming, labelling of Moisture Barrier Bags (MBB) for FOSB/ HWS.
- Wafer Inspection module for macro defects.

Besides WPC EVO2, NBS also offers many other models to cater to different customer needs.
NBS’s innovative WPC EVO WRT is a Wafer Ring Transfer tool designed for customers to pack and unpack wafers mounted on wafer rings or frames. There is also an enhanced version of EVO2 called WPC EVO AUTO, that can remove the lids of HWS without any manual intervention, hence minimising operator and human errors (full HWS Automation mode).
If your facility is using smaller wafer size such as 6” or 150mm wafers, our legacy tool WPC 200 Advance will allow you to handle both 6” and 8” wafers at the same time.
