Description

  The present invention relates to a process processing apparatus, a process processing method, and a process processing program for performing process processing, for example, in the process of transporting an electronic component such as a semiconductor element.

  A number of semiconductor elements are produced on a Si wafer in a process called a pre-process, and then separated into individual pieces in a process called a post-process, and then subjected to steps such as electrical property testing, property classification, marking, and appearance inspection. After that, they are packed in a tape or container tube and shipped.

  Such a semiconductor element is held by a holding mechanism and transported by a transport mechanism in a process after being separated into individual pieces, and various processes are performed in each process processing unit provided along the transport path. The As the transfer method by the transfer mechanism, linear transfer, turntable transfer, etc. are used. In any case, the step of moving the holding mechanism according to a predetermined process order and the end of the process of the semiconductor element in each process processing unit In many cases, so-called intermittent conveyance is used in which the step of stopping the holding mechanism is repeated.

  By the way, the process processing by intermittent conveyance as described above has a problem that it is difficult to cope with a long processing time and to increase the speed. First, 1 transport cycle time = transport time + transport stop time, and stop time> maximum process processing time + delivery time. Here, if the maximum process processing time is 70 ms and the delivery time during the stop time is 20 ms, the lower limit of the stop time is 90 ms. If the transport time is 30 ms, the lower limit of one transport cycle time is 120 ms, and it is difficult to increase the speed further.

As described above, the reasons why it is difficult to increase the speed include the following.
(1) Due to mechanical limitations, it is necessary to simultaneously carry and stop the entire carrying mechanism. For this reason, the stop time must be determined by the maximum process processing time, and the transport stop time is limited.
(2) Although productivity has been improved by speeding up the transfer, it is reaching its limit.
(3) For example, when a process that requires a long process is included, such as an electrical characteristic inspection that requires a complicated test cycle, the maximum processing time becomes longer and the one transport cycle time becomes longer.

  In order to cope with this, a process processing apparatus as disclosed in Patent Document 1 has been proposed. This is an apparatus for carrying out process processing in parallel while carrying a plurality of semiconductor elements in parallel, and carrying out and carrying out process processing in parallel increases productivity as a whole. Also, a method of arranging a plurality of processing mechanisms for the same process on the transport path and performing process processing in parallel, that is, a method of performing transport = one by one and process processing = parallel, can be considered.

  Patent Document 2 discloses the following process technology. In this process processing technique, a plurality of processing mechanisms are provided in a process processing unit, and after transferring a semiconductor element from a holding mechanism to one of the processing mechanisms, the process is performed by moving the semiconductor element to a place different from the delivery place. Thereby, the delivery from the holding mechanism of the semiconductor element to the processing mechanism and the delivery from the processing mechanism to the holding mechanism can be performed in different cycles. According to such a conventional technique, since the moving time of the processing mechanism can be made shorter than the conveying time of the conveying mechanism, it is possible to make the process processing time longer than in the prior art even with the same cycle time.

  Further, in Patent Document 3, a plurality of processing mechanisms and holding mechanisms are provided in the electronic component transport direction, and the electronic component is transferred from one holding mechanism to the processing mechanism, and any other holding mechanism performs processing. A process processing apparatus that receives an electronic component from a mechanism has been proposed. In such an apparatus, by increasing the number of processing mechanisms, it is possible to secure a long process time for the processing mechanisms.

For example, in the example shown in FIG. 9 of Patent Document 3, three processing mechanisms are provided, and one of three adjacent holding mechanisms is transported in a state of holding an electronic component, and is one out of nine stop times. Electronic parts can be delivered and received in proportion. In the example shown in FIG. 10, four processing mechanisms are provided, two of the four holding mechanisms adjacent to each other are transported in a state in which the electronic component is held, and the electronic component is divided by one out of four stop times. Can be delivered and received.

  However, the prior art as described above has the following problems. That is, in the technology for performing parallel processing as disclosed in Patent Document 1, even in a process that requires a short processing time, the same number of processing mechanisms as in a process with a long process must be arranged, which is wasteful. Will increase the cost of the device. In addition to the increase in cost for such parallel processing, the transport mechanism may be complicated for parallel transport, leading to a decrease in reliability of apparatus operation. And it leads to an increase in driving force and an increase in running cost due to an increase in inertial mass of the transport mechanism.

  Next, in the invention disclosed in Patent Document 2, there is a problem that the process processing mechanism is complicated as described above, the apparatus operation reliability is lowered, and the cost is increased, and the processing mechanism is moved in the process processing unit. In addition, the processing conditions become unstable and the accuracy of high-frequency characteristic measurement is reduced due to impedance fluctuations during electrical characteristic measurement, and the process processing time is shortened by the movement time of the processing mechanism. Further, when the process processing mechanism is enlarged, a plurality of process processing mechanisms cannot be arranged along the transport path, and it becomes difficult to further improve productivity.

  Furthermore, in the invention disclosed in Patent Document 3, in the case of the example in FIG. 9, one of the three holding mechanisms carries the electronic component while holding the electronic component. Inefficient. Further, in the case of the example in FIG. 10, there is always a processing mechanism that does not process the electronic component, so that the processing efficiency is not good. In addition, the processing time cannot be extended as compared with the case where there are two processing mechanisms.

  The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above-described problems of the prior art, and its purpose is to reduce the number of additional mechanisms and to reduce the cost, and to ensure a long process time, An object of the present invention is to provide a process processing apparatus, a process processing method, and a process processing program for an electronic component that are excellent in parts conveyance efficiency and processing efficiency.

Therefore, it is possible to increase the processing time of the electronic component in one processing mechanism as compared with the case where both timings are matched. In addition, since the time during which no electronic component is present in the processing mechanism can be shortened, efficient processing can be performed.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the electronic component process processing apparatus according to the first aspect, the transport unit advances and stops the holding mechanism so that the position of the holding mechanism with respect to the processing mechanism moves one by one.

[Configuration of the embodiment]
Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. That is, the present embodiment includes a transport unit 100 and a processing unit 200 as shown in FIG. The transport unit 100 includes, for example, 36 suction nozzles 110 disposed on the turntable T at regular intervals. The suction nozzle 110 is connected to a vacuum source (not shown), and is a holding mechanism that sucks and releases the electronic components S one by one in accordance with this switching. The suction nozzle 110 is provided so as to be movable up and down by a drive mechanism (not shown). When the suction nozzle 110 is lowered with respect to the processing unit 200, the electronic component S is sucked and released so that the electronic component S is connected to the processing unit 200. It is configured to be able to receive and deliver.

  Further, the suction nozzle 110 advances from the left to the right shown in FIGS. 2 to 7 at intervals corresponding to the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B described later by intermittently rotating the turntable T by a driving mechanism (not shown). Thereafter, the sucked electronic component S is transported while repeating a transport cycle of temporarily stopping. Note that the mechanism for moving the suction nozzle 110 does not have to be the turntable T, and for example, any known technique such as a straight-line conveyance or a curved-line conveyance can be applied.

  Next, the processing unit 200 includes eight processing mechanisms 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, and 4B disposed below the suction nozzle 110 in the transport line. Each processing mechanism 1A to 4B performs an electrical test of the electronic component (device) S. In other words, each of the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B is a test station that measures electrical characteristics such as voltage, current, resistance, or frequency of the device by contacting the electrode of the device. These processing mechanisms 1 </ b> A to 4 </ b> B are installed at a position corresponding to the stop position of each suction nozzle 110, and constitute a test contact process at this position.

  Further, a supply device 300 for supplying the electronic component S to each suction nozzle 110 and a polarity determination for determining the polarity of the electronic component S at a position corresponding to the stop position upstream of the processing unit 200 in the turntable T. A device 400 and a reversing device 500 for reversing the electronic component S in accordance with polarity determination are arranged. Each device is horizontally disposed apart from the turntable T, and can perform a predetermined process on the electronic component S held by the lowered suction nozzle 110.

  The supply device 300 constitutes an escape process in which the electronic components S aligned and conveyed from the ball feeder 310 and the linear feeder 320 are delivered from the escape to the suction nozzle 110. The polarity discriminating apparatus 400 constitutes a polarity discriminating step for discriminating the polarity of the electronic component S. The reversing device 500 constitutes a left / right reversing process in which the polarity of the electronic component S is rotated based on polarity determination.

  Each of these devices is merely an example of a device other than the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B, and what device is to be arranged, which stop position is to be arranged, or whether it is upstream of the processing unit 200. Whether it is downstream or the like is free. For example, various devices such as a marking device, an appearance inspection device, a taping device, and a defective product removal device can be applied, and these can be arranged at a desired location.

  The drive mechanism of the turntable T, the drive mechanism that raises and lowers the suction nozzle 110, the vacuum source of the suction nozzle 110, the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B of the processing unit 200, the supply device 300, the polarity determination device 400, the reversing device 500, etc. It is controlled by a control device comprising a computer or a dedicated circuit that operates according to a predetermined program so as to operate according to the procedure described below.

[Operation of the embodiment]
The operation of the present embodiment having the above configuration will be described with reference to the process charts of FIGS. 2 to 7, the time chart of FIG. 8, and the flowchart of FIG. Actually, the turntable T moves one position at a time, but for convenience of explanation, FIGS. 2 (4) to 3 (5) (6), FIGS. 4 (9) to (11), and FIG. Except for 14) to (16) and FIGS. 6 (19) to 7 (21), the movement for one position is omitted. Further, (5) to (24) in FIG. 9 correspond to (5) to (24) in FIGS.

  First, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 8B, every other electronic component S supplied by the supply device 300 is sucked by the suction nozzle 110 (in FIG. 2 to FIG. (Sequential numbers 0, 1, 2, 3 are assigned in order from S). And the suction nozzle 110 conveys the electronic component S by carrying out the intermittent rotation which the turntable T repeats rotation and a stop for every position. In this process, as shown in FIGS. 8C and 8D, polarity discrimination by the polarity discriminating device 400 and reversal processing for aligning the polarity by the inversion device 500 are performed every other position.

  Here, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 7, the suction nozzles 110 that suck and convey every other electronic component S supplied by the supply device 300 and pass it to the processing mechanisms 1 </ b> A to 4 </ b> B are set as nozzles Aa and Ba. Assume that four nozzles Aa and four nozzles Ba appear alternately. Further, the suction nozzle 110 that sucks and receives the electronic component S on the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B is assumed to be nozzles Ab and Bb, four nozzles Ab, and four nozzles Bb appear alternately.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 (1) to (4), in the process in which the electronic component S is conveyed by the suction nozzle 110 being repeatedly moved and stopped (steps 01 and 02), as shown in FIG. 3 (5). When the four nozzles Aa attracting the electronic component S come to the processing mechanisms 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A and stop (step 03), they are lowered and released after releasing the electronic component S (step 04). Then, the electronic component S is mounted on the processing mechanisms 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A, and the electronic component S is inspected.

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 3 (6) to 4 (10), the suction nozzle 110 is advanced and stopped again (steps 05 and 06). Then, as shown in FIG. 4 (11), when the four nozzles Ba sucking the electronic component S come to the processing mechanisms 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B and stop (step 07), the electronic nozzle S descends. Rises after releasing (step 08). Then, the electronic component S is mounted on the processing mechanisms 1B, 2B, 3B, and 4B, and the electronic component S is inspected.

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 4 (12) to 5 (14), the suction nozzle 110 is advanced and stopped again (steps 09 and 10). Then, as shown in FIG. 5 (14), when the four empty nozzles Ab reach the processing mechanisms 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A and stop (step 11), the electronic component S that has been lowered and finished processing is removed. It rises after adsorption (step 12).

  Further, the suction nozzle 110 advances by one position and stops (steps 13 and 14). Then, as shown in FIG. 5 (15), since the four nozzles Aa that have attracted the electronic component S come to the processing mechanisms 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A, they are lowered and then lifted after releasing the electronic component S. (Step 15). Then, the electronic component S is mounted on the processing mechanisms 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A, and the electronic component S is inspected.

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 5 (16) to 6 (19), the suction nozzle 110 is advanced and stopped again (steps 16 and 17). Then, as shown in FIG. 6 (20), when the four empty nozzles Bb come to the top of the processing mechanisms 1B, 2B, 3B, and 4B and stop (step 18), the electronic component S that has been lowered and finished processing is removed. It rises after adsorption (step 19).

  Further, the suction nozzle 110 advances by one position and stops (steps 20 and 21). Then, as shown in FIG. 7 (21), the four nozzles Ba that have attracted the electronic component S come to the top of the processing mechanisms 1B, 2B, 3B, and 4B. (Step 22). Then, the electronic component S is mounted on the processing mechanisms 1B, 2B, 3B, and 4B, and the electronic component S is inspected. After the inspection is performed as described above, every other electronic component S sucked by the nozzles Ab and Bb is sequentially transported to the next process.

[Effect of the embodiment]
According to the present embodiment as described above, the timing at which the suction nozzle 110 delivers the electronic component S simultaneously to every other four processing mechanisms 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A among the eight processing mechanisms 1A to 4B. And the timing of receiving the electronic component S from the other four processing mechanisms 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B at the same time are different from each other, compared with the case where both timings are matched, the electronic component S in each processing mechanism 1A-4B. It is possible to take a long inspection time. In addition, the electronic component S is always present in any of the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B, and the time during which the electronic component S does not exist for delivery to the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B can be greatly shortened. Therefore, it is possible to perform an efficient process for a long time.

  In addition, since the time for processing one electronic component S can be secured more than the time required for the progress and stop of the positions corresponding to the number of processing mechanisms 1A to 4B (eight here), processing for a very long time is possible. Can be done. This is also clear from the fact that the time from release to adsorption in the test contact process is longer than one transport cycle time × 8 determined by the stop time + advance time as shown in FIG. 8 (e). It is.

  In addition, a short processing step can be completed in the unit time of the advance and stop cycles. This is also clear from the fact that the escape process, the polarity determination process, and the left-right reversing process are performed in one stop time in the two transport cycle times as shown in FIGS. 8B to 8D. Therefore, it is not necessary to increase the number of processing mechanisms for completing the process in a short time, and an increase in apparatus cost and a decrease in reliability of apparatus operation can be minimized.

  Further, as shown in the time chart of FIG. 8, in the steps such as (14), (15), (20), and (21) in which adsorption and release are performed in adjacent processing mechanisms, one transport cycle (one position) is performed. Need to proceed and stop. However, in other steps, the electronic component is processed only once in two transport cycle times, so if it is moved in one step (two positions at a time) without stopping during the two transport cycles. The overall processing time can be further shortened.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the processing mechanism of the processing unit 200 is added to the stop position of the holding mechanism (such as the suction nozzle 110) of the conventional process processing apparatus without changing the transport unit 100, and the control program Or it can be realized only by changing the software. For this reason, it is not necessary to change the design of the conventional apparatus, in particular, the transport unit 100 and the holding mechanism. Further, the compatibility of the conventional apparatus with the apparatus configuration is high, and the modification from the conventional apparatus to the present embodiment is easy. It is also easy to operate the apparatus in the form of a conventional apparatus as required. Furthermore, since there are few design changes, the compatibility of components and units can be maintained, and the reliability of device operation can be improved and the device cost can be reduced by using proven components and units.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the electronic components S are supplied to the processing mechanisms 1A to 4B in a state where the nozzles Aa and Ba that are sucking the electronic components S and the nozzles Ab and Bb that are not sucking are alternately present, Since the nozzles Ab and Bb sucking the processed electronic component S and the nozzles Aa and Ba not sucked can be alternately conveyed to the next process, the suction nozzle 110 to be used is used. Therefore, it is easy to process in the next process.
