當使用如上述般的切削裝置12在晶圓2的切割道4形成切削溝時,首先,將晶圓2的表面2a朝上,使晶圓2吸引保持於夾盤平台24的上面。此外,藉由複數個夾具28將環狀框8固定。接下來,藉由拍攝手段18從上方拍攝晶圓2,基於藉由拍攝手段18拍攝到的晶圓2的圖像,將X軸饋送手段、Y軸饋送手段及夾盤平台用馬達作動,使切割道4對齊X軸方向,並且將切削刀34置放於被對齊於X軸方向之切割道4的上方。接下來,藉由馬達使切削刀34和心軸32一起旋轉。接下來,藉由Z軸饋送手段使心軸罩殼30下降,使切削刀34的刀尖切入被對齊於X軸方向之切割道4,並且將X軸饋送手段作動而對於切削手段16將夾盤平台24相對地朝X軸方向加工饋送,藉此施以沿著切割道4形成用來將晶圓2分割成一個個元件6的切削溝之切削加工。接下來,以恰好事先設定好的分度饋送量的份量(被施以切削加工之前的狀態下的切割道4的Y軸方向間隔),對於夾盤平台24將切削手段16藉由Y軸饋送手段朝Y軸方向做分度饋送。然後,交互反覆做切削加工與分度饋送,藉此對被對齊於X軸方向之切割道4的全部施以切削加工時,若依上述般藉由切削裝置12形成切削溝的當中,會發生切削加工伴隨之切割道4的Y軸方向的偏差、或心軸32的熱膨脹所致之切削刀34的Y軸方向的偏差。在發生了這樣的偏差的狀態下,若藉由事先設定好的分度饋送量一面做分度饋送一面反覆做切削加工,則恐會切削到從切割道4脫離之位置而使元件6損傷。鑑此,當藉由切削裝置12形成切削溝時,於進行了數次切削加工後會進行加工位置的修正(也就是說,切割道4與切削溝之偏差的修正)。加工位置的修正中,首先,實施求出切割道4與基準線L之Y軸方向的偏差量而記憶作為切割道的修正值之切割道修正,接下來實施求出切削溝與基準線L之Y軸方向的偏差量而記憶作為切削溝的修正值之加工溝修正。另,將沿著切割道4形成的切削溝在圖3中以符號54表示。When a cutting groove is formed in the dicing track 4 of the wafer 2 using the cutting device 12 as described above, first, the surface 2 a of the wafer 2 is directed upward, and the wafer 2 is sucked and held on the chuck table 24. The ring frame 8 is fixed by a plurality of clamps 28. Next, the wafer 2 is photographed from above by the photographing means 18, and based on the image of the wafer 2 photographed by the photographing means 18, the X-axis feed means, the Y-axis feed means, and the chuck platform motor are operated to The cutting track 4 is aligned in the X-axis direction, and the cutter 34 is placed above the cutting track 4 aligned in the X-axis direction. Next, the cutter 34 and the spindle 32 are rotated together by a motor. Next, the mandrel cover 30 is lowered by the Z-axis feeding means, the tip of the cutter 34 is cut into the cutting track 4 aligned in the X-axis direction, and the X-axis feeding means is actuated to clamp the cutting means 16 The disk table 24 relatively feeds in the X-axis direction, thereby performing a cutting process for forming a cutting groove for dividing the wafer 2 into individual elements 6 along the dicing path 4. Next, the cutting means 16 is fed to the chuck table 24 by the Y-axis at the portion of the index feed amount (the interval in the Y-axis direction of the cutting path 4 in the state before the cutting process is applied) just set in advance. Means do index feed towards the Y axis. Then, the cutting process and the index feeding are repeatedly performed alternately, thereby cutting the entirety of the cutting track 4 aligned in the X-axis direction, and if cutting grooves are formed by the cutting device 12 as described above, it will occur. A deviation in the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 accompanying the cutting process or a deviation in the Y-axis direction of the cutting blade 34 due to thermal expansion of the mandrel 32. In the state where such a deviation occurs, if the indexing feed amount set in advance is used for indexing and cutting is repeated, cutting may occur to a position detached from the cutting path 4 and the element 6 may be damaged. In view of this, when the cutting groove is formed by the cutting device 12, the machining position is corrected (that is, the deviation between the cutting track 4 and the cutting groove is corrected) after several cutting operations are performed. In the correction of the machining position, first, a cutting track correction is performed to obtain the Y-axis direction deviation between the cutting track 4 and the reference line L and memorize the correction value of the cutting track, and then the calculation of the The amount of deviation in the Y-axis direction is stored as a machining groove correction as a correction value of the cutting groove. A cutting groove formed along the cutting path 4 is indicated by a reference numeral 54 in FIG. 3.

切割道修正中,首先如圖3所示般,將X軸饋送手段及Y軸饋送手段作動來進行晶圓2與拍攝手段18之對位,藉由拍攝手段18拍攝最近形成了切削溝54之切割道4。藉由拍攝手段18拍攝到的圖像,例如如圖5所示,被顯示於顯示手段20的圖像顯示部38。另,當在切割道4周期性地設有稱為TEG(Test Element Group;測試元件群)之金屬圖樣的情形下,在將TEG切斷之處的切削溝而產生金屬毛邊等,若拍攝到此處的切削溝則恐將金屬毛邊等誤認作為切削溝,因此在這樣的情形下會藉由將X軸作動部44作動來調整藉由拍攝手段18拍攝之切割道4的位置,而拍攝未設有TEG之處的切削溝。接下來,基於拍攝出的圖像,如圖6所示般,將Y軸作動部46作動,將被顯示於圖像顯示部38之切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置朝向基準線L移動。此時,作業者是看著拍攝出的圖像,以肉眼抓份量來調整切割道4的位置使得切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置和基準線L一致,故難以藉由Y軸作動部46的1次的作動來將切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置正確地置放於基準線L。因此,會將可動線作動部50作動而將一對可動線48的間隔貼合切割道4的寬幅,來確認切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置是否和基準線L一致。如上述般,一對可動線48,是一面保持以基準線L為對稱軸之線對稱的關係一面接近及遠離,故若一對可動線48的間隔和切割道4的寬幅一致,則切割道4的Y軸方向的中央位置和基準線L便會一致。然後,適當地反覆做Y軸作動部46之作動與可動線作動部50之作動,當如圖7所示般一對可動線48的間隔一致於切割道4的寬幅時,便觸碰切割道修正按鈕40。這樣一來,從修正前的位置起算之切割道4的Y軸方向的移動距離(切割道4與基準線L之偏差量)便會作為切割道4的Y軸方向的修正值而被記憶於切削裝置12的上述記憶手段。此切割道4的修正值會被顯示於顯示手段20的修正值顯示部52(圖示的實施形態中為-5.5μm)。
圖示的實施形態中,於這樣的切割道修正時,即使作業員誤觸碰了加工溝修正按鈕42,當一對可動線48的間隔不是被設定成會被辨識為切削溝54的寬幅之間隔的情形下會報知錯誤,故切割道4的修正值不會被記憶作為切削溝54的修正值。另,圖7中,為求簡便,以比切割道4的寬幅還稍寬的間隔來記載一對可動線48。
In the dicing path correction, as shown in FIG. 3, the X-axis feeding means and the Y-axis feeding means are actuated to perform alignment between the wafer 2 and the photographing means 18, and the photographing means 18 is used to photograph the recently formed cutting groove 54. Cutting Road 4. The image captured by the imaging means 18 is displayed on the image display section 38 of the display means 20 as shown in FIG. 5, for example. In addition, when a metal pattern called a TEG (Test Element Group) is periodically provided on the cutting track 4, a metal burr is generated in a cutting groove where the TEG is cut. The cutting groove here is likely to be mistakenly recognized as a cutting groove. Therefore, in this case, the position of the cutting track 4 captured by the imaging means 18 will be adjusted by actuating the X-axis actuator 44. Cutting groove where TEG is installed. Next, based on the captured image, as shown in FIG. 6, the Y-axis operating unit 46 is operated to move the center position in the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 displayed on the image display unit 38 toward the reference line L. At this time, the operator looks at the captured image and adjusts the position of the cutting path 4 with the naked eye so that the center position in the Y-axis direction of the cutting path 4 coincides with the reference line L. Therefore, it is difficult to use the Y-axis actuator 46 The center position in the Y-axis direction of the cutting path 4 is accurately placed on the reference line L by a single operation. Therefore, the movable line actuating unit 50 is operated, and the interval of the pair of movable lines 48 is fitted to the width of the cutting track 4 to check whether the center position in the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 coincides with the reference line L. As mentioned above, a pair of movable lines 48 approach and move away while maintaining a line-symmetric relationship with the reference line L as the axis of symmetry. Therefore, if the interval between the pair of movable lines 48 and the width of the cutting path 4 are consistent, the cutting is performed. The center position in the Y-axis direction of the track 4 and the reference line L will be aligned. Then, the action of the Y-axis actuator 46 and the action of the movable wire actuator 50 are appropriately repeated. When the interval of the pair of movable wires 48 is consistent with the width of the cutting path 4 as shown in FIG. 7, the cutting is touched. Road correction button 40. In this way, the moving distance in the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 (the deviation between the cutting track 4 and the reference line L) calculated from the position before the correction is stored in the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 as a correction value. The above-mentioned memory means of the cutting device 12. The correction value of the cutting path 4 is displayed on the correction value display section 52 of the display means 20 (-5.5 μm in the illustrated embodiment).
In the embodiment shown in the figure, even if the operator touches the machining groove correction button 42 by mistake in such a cutting path correction, when the interval between the pair of movable lines 48 is not set to be recognized as the wide width of the cutting groove 54 In the case of an interval, an error will be reported, so the correction value of the cutting track 4 will not be stored as the correction value of the cutting groove 54. In addition, in FIG. 7, for the sake of simplicity, a pair of movable wires 48 are described at intervals slightly wider than the width of the cutting track 4.

接著說明加工溝修正。加工溝修正,是從使切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置一致於基準線L之狀態開始,首先,如圖8所示般,將Y軸作動部46作動,將被顯示於圖像顯示部38之切削溝54的Y軸方向中央位置朝向基準線L移動。接下來,會將可動線作動部50作動而將一對可動線48的間隔貼合切削溝54的寬幅,來確認切削溝54的Y軸方向中央位置是否和基準線L一致。然後,適當地反覆做Y軸作動部46之作動與可動線作動部50之作動,當如圖9所示般一對可動線48的間隔一致於切削溝54的寬幅時,便觸碰加工溝修正按鈕42。這樣一來,從使切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置一致於基準線L之狀態起算之切削溝54的Y軸方向的移動距離,便會作為切削溝54的Y軸方向的修正值而被記憶於切削裝置12的上述記憶手段。此切削溝54的修正值會被顯示於顯示手段20的修正值顯示部52(圖示的實施形態中為+1.2μm)。圖示的實施形態中,於這樣的加工溝修正時,即使作業員誤觸碰了切割道修正按鈕40,當一對可動線48的間隔不是被設定成會被辨識為切割道4的寬幅之間隔的情形下會報知錯誤,故切削溝54的修正值不會被記憶作為切割道4的修正值。另,圖9中,為求簡便,以比切削溝54的寬幅還稍寬的間隔來記載一對可動線48。Next, processing groove correction will be described. The machining groove correction starts from a state where the center position in the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 coincides with the reference line L. First, as shown in FIG. 8, the Y-axis actuator 46 is actuated and displayed on the image display unit. The center position in the Y-axis direction of the cutting groove 54 of 38 moves toward the reference line L. Next, the movable line actuating part 50 is operated, and the interval of the pair of movable lines 48 is fitted to the width of the cutting groove 54 to check whether the center position of the cutting groove 54 in the Y-axis direction coincides with the reference line L. Then, the operation of the Y-axis actuating portion 46 and the movable line actuating portion 50 are repeatedly performed as appropriate. When the interval between the pair of movable lines 48 is consistent with the width of the cutting groove 54 as shown in FIG. 9, the processing is touched. Ditch correction button 42. In this way, the moving distance in the Y-axis direction of the cutting groove 54 calculated from a state where the center position of the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 coincides with the reference line L is corrected as the Y-axis direction correction value of the cutting groove 54. It is stored in the above-mentioned memory means of the cutting device 12. The correction value of the cutting groove 54 is displayed on the correction value display section 52 of the display means 20 (+1.2 μm in the illustrated embodiment). In the embodiment shown in the figure, even if the operator touches the cutting path correction button 40 by mistake in such a machining groove correction, when the interval between the pair of movable lines 48 is not set to be recognized as the wide width of the cutting path 4 In the case of an interval, an error will be reported, so the correction value of the cutting groove 54 will not be stored as the correction value of the cutting track 4. In addition, in FIG. 9, for the sake of simplicity, a pair of movable wires 48 are described at intervals slightly wider than the width of the cutting groove 54.

如上述般加工位置之修正中,首先於切割道修正中,求出從修正前的位置起算之切割道4的Y軸方向的移動距離(切割道4與基準線L之偏差量),接下來於加工溝修正中,求出從使切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置一致於基準線L之狀態起算之切削溝54的Y軸方向的移動距離(切削溝54與基準線L之偏差量),藉此便能使用基準線L正確地求出切割道4與切削溝54之偏差量。然後,藉由對事先設定好的分度饋送量加入切削溝54的修正值而成之修正後的分度饋送量來做分度饋送,藉此便能在切割道4的Y軸方向中央位置形成切削溝54。In the correction of the machining position as described above, first, in the cutting path correction, firstly find the moving distance of the cutting path 4 in the Y-axis direction (the deviation between the cutting path 4 and the reference line L) from the position before the correction. In the machining groove correction, the moving distance in the Y-axis direction of the cutting groove 54 (the amount of deviation between the cutting groove 54 and the reference line L) is calculated from a state where the center position of the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 coincides with the reference line L. Therefore, by using the reference line L, the amount of deviation between the cutting track 4 and the cutting groove 54 can be accurately obtained. Then, the indexing feed is adjusted by adding the correction value of the cutting groove 54 to the indexing feed amount set in advance, so that it can be positioned at the center of the Y-axis direction of the cutting track 4 Formed cutting groove 54.

如以上般圖示的實施形態中,當一對可動線48的間隔不是被設定成會被辨識為切割道4的寬幅之間隔的情形下,若觸碰切割道修正按鈕40則會報知錯誤,當一對可動線48的間隔不是被設定成會被辨識為切削溝54的寬幅之間隔的情形下,若觸碰加工溝修正按鈕42則會報知錯誤,故不會將切割道4與基準線L之偏差量記憶作為切削溝54的修正值,並且不會將切削溝54與基準線L之偏差量記憶作為切割道4的修正值,能夠高精度地做分度饋送而對切割道4形成高精度的切削溝54。In the embodiment shown above, when the interval between a pair of movable lines 48 is not set to be recognized as the wide interval of the cutting path 4, if the cutting path correction button 40 is touched, an error will be reported. When the interval between a pair of movable lines 48 is not set to be recognized as the wide interval of the cutting groove 54, if the processing groove correction button 42 is touched, an error will be reported, so the cutting track 4 and the The deviation amount of the reference line L is memorized as the correction value of the cutting groove 54, and the deviation amount of the cutting groove 54 and the reference line L is not memorized as the correction value of the cutting track 4. It is possible to perform index feeding with high accuracy to the cutting track 4 to form a cutting groove 54 with high accuracy.
