Material transport in clean rooms: How PohlCon increases the efficiency of Fabmatics' high-tech robots with its WCPS contactless charging infrastructure

The Dresden-based company Fabmatics specializes in the automation of handling, transport and storage processes in semiconductor factories. This is all about the safe, precise and particle-free handling of high-quality wafers, the silicon wafers on which microchips are manufactured. To implement this challenging transport task, Fabmatics has developed, among other things, the HERO®FAB mobile robot.

Target requirement for production logistics in a clean room

Energy supply is a particular challenge for mobile robots, as the systems have to be operated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.To fully exploit the potential of automated and flexibly plannable material flows in cleanrooms, an intelligently planned and process-safe energy supply strategy for mobile robots is required.

Achieving goals via the right charging infrastructure

In order to turn the disadvantages of the current mostly contact-based energy supply in cleanrooms into advantages for material handling, the charging process must be inconspicuously integrated into the work processes and subordinate to them. The technology suitable for this is inductive energy transmission with the matching and easy-to-implement charging infrastructure - the WCPS system from PohlCon.
