Key Features of Quartz Glass Sheets
The One-Inch Wafer Cassette Box is engineered to accommodate one-inch (25.4mm) diameter wafers, providing a secure and clean environment to prevent contamination, mechanical damage, and electrostatic discharge. The box features a precision-molded structure with tight dimensional tolerances, ensuring reliable wafer alignment and stable stacking. Its transparent or semi-transparent body design allows quick visual inspection without opening, minimizing exposure to external environments.
Made from advanced polymers such as polycarbonate (PC) , the wafer cassette box offers excellent mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and thermal stability. These properties make it suitable for use in cleanroom environments, where strict contamination control is required. The box is compatible with industry-standard wafer cassettes and can be integrated seamlessly with automated wafer handling equipment.
