11) second group of IC wafer sent arm and is back to main buffering region and takes out the district and take out two IC wafers, test cartridge again and do the IC test, flies shuttle with first simultaneously and sends back to, second flies shuttle and send, carry dish and carry starting point by movable load plate and be loaded onto movable load plate and carry terminal point;
12) test cartridge to the second flies to take out on the load plate of a shuttle left side IC wafer preparation and tests, test bench up moves, the IC wafer that makes test cartridge will finish survey is inserted first and is flown in the right load plate of shuttle, and simultaneously second group of IC wafer sent arm and put into the IC wafer and fly shuttle left side load plate in first, and send arm by the 3rd group of IC wafer and fly IC chip sucking on the right load plate of shuttle with second and be taken to the movable load plate that carries dish and carry in the starting point, simultaneously, the 4th group of IC wafer sent arm and carried terminal point 43a by movable load plate and taken out and survey the IC wafer, and sorted out to three fixing configuration dishes or be laminated in the survey IC wafer bearing dish according to this IC wafer sort result;
13) second group of IC wafer sent arm and is back to main buffering region and takes out the district and take out two IC wafers again, test cartridge is done the IC test, fly shuttle with first simultaneously and send, second fly shuttle and send, carry dish back to and carry starting point by movable load plate and be loaded onto movable load plate and carry terminal point, another carries dish and carries the terminal point activity of sending back to by movable load plate and carry and fold a little;
14) the 4th group of IC wafer sent arm and carried terminal point by movable load plate and taken out and survey the IC wafer, and sorted out to three fixing configuration dishes or be laminated to according to this IC wafer sort result and survey in the IC wafer bearing dish, and jumping is intermittently carried out by the 10th step;
According to above-mentioned steps, first flying shuttle and second and fly shuttle left side load plate in the test section, under normal program, be directly to ask for to such an extent that survey the IC wafer by main buffering region, but when main buffering region can't take out the IC wafer by main buffering region because of rotation IC bearing dish makes second group of IC wafer send arm, program can be specified at once and be changed by the IC wafer to be measured of taking in second buffering area, continue to carry out the action of test I C wafer, and needn't shut down wait, by the time the previous factor of suspending stops to recover normal procedure again after (being that IC bearing dish rotate in place), and because the conveyance speed that the IC wafer is sent arm is fast than IC test speed, can in time dead after a while, intermittently the IC wafer to be measured in second buffering area be filled up; Similarly, when post-test distribution region temporarily can't supply to survey IC wafer output placement because of changing IC wafer bearing dish, program also can temporarily be specified the 3rd group of IC wafer to send arm and taken out and survey the position of placing behind the IC wafer and be changed to and be positioned in the 3rd buffering area, send arm R3 in order to the 3rd group of IC wafer and continue action, when treating before to suspend the reason elimination, reply original IC again and transport flow process, and it is very fast that this IC wafer is sent the IC speed of transporting of arm, enable when neutral gear, intermittently survey the IC wafer to carrying dish, so that the IC wafer in the 3rd buffering area is emptied by having taken out in the 3rd buffering area; So, keep second buffering area to be filled IC wafer to be measured, the 3rd buffering area and emptied the state of surveying the IC wafer, operation that can open test district test I C wafer.
