[DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION] [FIELD OF THE INVENTION] JP 7064887 B2 2022.5. id="p-1" id="p-1" id="p-1"
[0001] The present invention relates to a processing apparatus managing method and a processing apparatus that achieve an improvement in productivity.
[DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART] id="p-2" id="p-2" id="p-2"
[0002] A wafer having a plurality of devices such as integrated circuits (ICs), large scale integrations (LSIs), or the like formed on a top surface thereof so as to be demarcated by a plurality of intersecting planned dividing lines is divided into individual device chips by a processing apparatus such as a dicing apparatus, a laser processing apparatus, or the like. Each of the divided device chips is used in an electric apparatus such as a mobile telephone, a personal computer, or the like. id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3"
[0003] A dicing apparatus is constituted mainly of: a chuck table that sucks and holds a wafer; an imaging unit that detects planned dividing lines of the wafer held on the chuck table; X-axis direction moving means moving the chuck table in an X-axis direction; a cutting unit that has a spindle having, as an axis thereof, a Y-axis direction orthogonal to the X-axis direction and has a cutting blade at an end of the spindle; Y-axis direction JP 7064887 B2 2022.5. moving means for moving the cutting unit in the Y-axis direction; cleaning means for cleaning an already cut wafer; a cassette mounting base mounted with a cassette that houses wafers before cutting and already cut wafers; and carrying-in/out means for taking out a wafer from the cassette and conveying the wafer to a temporary placement table, and housing an already cutting wafer positioned on the temporary placement table into the cassette. The dicing apparatus can automatically divide wafers into individual device chips (see Patent Document 1, for example). id="p-4" id="p-4" id="p-4"
[0004] In addition, a laser processing apparatus is configured in a substantially similar manner to the dicing apparatus.
The laser processing apparatus is constituted mainly of: a chuck table that sucks and holds a wafer; an imaging unit that detects planned dividing lines of the wafer held on the chuck table; X-axis direction moving means for moving the chuck table in an X-axis direction; a laser beam irradiating unit that irradiates the wafer held on the chuck table with a laser beam; Y-axis direction moving means for moving the chuck table and the laser beam irradiating unit relative to each other in a Y-axis direction; a cassette mounting base mounted with a cassette that houses wafers before laser processing and JP 7064887 B2 2022.5. already laser-processed wafers; and carrying-in/out means for taking out a wafer from the cassette and conveying the wafer to a temporary placement table, and housing an already laser-processed wafer positioned on the temporary placement table into the cassette. The laser processing apparatus can automatically divide wafers into individual devices (see Patent Document 2, for example). id="p-5" id="p-5" id="p-5"
[0005] The processing apparatus such as the dicing apparatus, the laser processing apparatus, or the like needs maintenance such as repair, replacement, or the like because constituent elements (parts) constituting the processing apparatus, the constituent elements being the chuck table, the X-axis direction moving means, the Y- axis direction moving means, and the like, are degraded with the passage of time. A worker periodically enters a test result on a check sheet on which a plurality of check items are entered, and chooses timing of the repair, replacement, or the like of the constituent elements.
