M-Drive Cluster Tool


Moving substrates in vacuum without a robot

Without exaggeration, our M-Drive can be described as a revolution in vacuum handling. It transports wafers and other materials contact-free and without friction in small and large vacuum chambers. Neither feedthroughs nor bearings, greases or classic drive elements are used. You will have no particles or leaks inside your chamber. The M-Drive shows its special strengths especially in vacuum, where no airflow can ensure cleanliness.

The basis of the system is a planar motor, which lifts and moves the carriages in vacuum by magnetism. Compared to a Scara robot, the system has an enormous flexibility. Where a robot only has a very limited working area, the M-Drive impresses with its arbitrary travel paths. Our M-Drive is the 2-dimensional extension of linear systems for vacuum transfer and thus sets standards in vacuum automation.

Precision Automation in Action

Take a look at our latest machine development with Bosch Rexroth! In this video, you'll see how our system achieves smooth handling with micrometer accuracy – watch the precision in every movement. The scalable chamber layout allows flexible configuration for different production needs, while the adaptable number of movers can be adjusted to match any throughput requirement.

This collaboration brings together innovative engineering and practical flexibility for modern manufacturing challenges.






I am looking forward to your contact.
