Definitions
- This disclosure relates to a die supply device that supplies dies from a die assembly formed by dicing a wafer.
- Patent Document 1 describes a die supplying device equipped with a removal head that removes dies from the die assembly.
- the removal head uses a nozzle to remove the die attached to the dicing sheet, turns it over, and hands it over to the mounting head.
- This disclosure has been made in consideration of such circumstances, and aims to provide a die supplying device that can reduce the burden of managing replacement nozzles in a die supplying device that replaces the suction nozzles of the flip head and the suction nozzles of the supplying head.
- this specification discloses a die supply device comprising: a flip head having a first nozzle attachment part to which a first suction nozzle can be attached and detached, and which uses the first suction nozzle to pick up a die from a die assembly obtained by dicing a wafer; an inversion mechanism which inverts the flip head and switches the front and back of the die picked up by the first suction nozzle; a supply head having a second nozzle attachment part to which a second suction nozzle can be attached and which uses the second suction nozzle to pick up the die picked up by the flip head and supplies the die picked up by the second suction nozzle; and a nozzle station which houses both the first suction nozzle for replacement and the second suction nozzle for replacement.
- the nozzle station accommodates both the first and second replacement suction nozzles.
- the replacement of the suction nozzle is performed by different methods, so there is a risk that the management of the first and second suction nozzles will become cumbersome.
- the two heads need to be moved to different locations for replacement, which complicates the mechanism for moving the heads and the control of the heads.
- both the first replacement suction nozzle attached to the flip head and the second replacement suction nozzle attached to the supply head can be managed in one nozzle station.
- by controlling each head it is possible to automatically replace both the first and second suction nozzles. It also reduces the workload of managing replacement suction nozzles, such as replacing replacement suction nozzles in the nozzle station and checking the suction nozzles stored in the nozzle station.

- FIG. 11 shows the state in which the first suction nozzle 43A is stored in the nozzle station 61.
- the wafer frame pull-out mechanism 31 moves the wafer frame 23 from the die supply position P2 to the storage position P1, and stores the wafer frame 23 in the magazine 24.

- the nozzle station mechanism 18 may place the shutter 63 at the front end position and place the opening 63D above the nozzle storage section 64 while the replacement work of the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 is not being performed, so that the operator can easily replace the first and second suction nozzles 43B, 56B for replacement of the nozzle station 61 with other nozzles.
- the nozzle station mechanism 18 may place the shutter 63 at the rear end position and place the pair of engagement parts 63E above the nozzle storage section 64 while the replacement work of the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 is not being performed, so that the first and second suction nozzles 43B, 56B are difficult to remove.

- the left eight of the ten nozzle accommodating sections 64 at the front of the nozzle station 61 and the left eight of the ten nozzle accommodating sections 64 at the rear are used. These two sets of eight nozzle accommodating sections 64 are provided at positions that match the positions of the eight second nozzle mounting sections 55 of the transfer head 54. Therefore, by aligning the position of one of the eight second nozzle mounting sections 55 with the position of any one of the eight nozzle accommodating sections 64, the positions of all of the second nozzle mounting sections 55 will match the positions of the eight nozzle accommodating sections 64.
- the transfer head 54 of this embodiment has four second nozzle mounting parts 55 arranged in two rows in the front-rear direction, with the four second nozzle mounting parts 55 arranged in the left-right direction at a predetermined pitch.

- the nozzle station mechanism 18 drives the shutter drive section 65 to insert multiple (16 in total) engagement sections 63E into the recesses (same structure as the recesses 41F in FIG. 9) of each second nozzle mounting section 55.
- the transfer head 54 drives the Z-axis slide mechanism 53 to raise the second nozzle mounting sections 55, thereby removing the second suction nozzles 56 from all second nozzle mounting sections 55.
- the transfer head 54 moves above the eight nozzle storage sections 64 (for example, the nozzle storage sections 64 on the front side of FIG. 8) in which the replacement second suction nozzles 56B are stored, and aligns the positions of the eight second nozzle mounting sections 55 with the positions of the eight second suction nozzles 56B (nozzle storage sections 64).
- the nozzle station mechanism 18 drives the shutter drive section 65 to align the position of the opening 63D with the position of the nozzle storage section 64.
- the transfer head 54 drives the Z-axis slide mechanism 53 to lower the eight second nozzle mounting sections 55 together, and mounts the second suction nozzles 56B to all the second nozzle mounting sections 55.
- the transfer head 54 raises the second nozzle mounting sections 55 and moves them to a predetermined initial position or the like. This completes the replacement of the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56.
- the control device 19 drives the lifting section 18B of the nozzle station mechanism 18 to lower the nozzle station 61, and drives the wafer supply unit 12 to transport the wafer frame 23 to be used in the next production from the magazine 24 to the die supply position P2.

- the order and contents of the operations for supplying the die 22 and replacing the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 described above are merely examples.
- the replacement of the second suction nozzle 56 may be performed first, and the replacement of the first suction nozzle 43 may be performed later.
- the replacement of the second suction nozzles 56 may not be performed all at once, but may be performed one by one.
- the position of the nozzle accommodating section 64 for accommodating the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 may not be determined in advance.
- two nozzle accommodating sections 64 for the first suction nozzles 43 may be set between the nozzle accommodating sections 64 for the four second suction nozzles 56 in the left-right direction and the nozzle accommodating sections 64 for the remaining four second suction nozzles 56.
- the nozzle accommodating sections 64 for the first and second nozzle mounting sections 41, 55 may not be set, and the removal position or mounting position may be changed depending on the conditions. For example, replacement may be performed on the nozzle housing 64, which is close by.
- the control device 19 controls the flip mechanism 15 to replace the first suction nozzles 43A and 43B, and controls the transfer mechanism 16 to replace the second suction nozzles 56A and 56B.
- the control device 19 can automatically replace the suction nozzles of the two heads in one nozzle station 61.
- the nozzle station 61 is disposed below the die assembly 21 when the die assembly 21 is disposed at the die supply position P2. In this way, when replacing the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56, the die assembly 21 is retreated from the die supply position P2 to the storage position P1 to ensure space for replacement and perform the replacement. Therefore, the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 can be replaced at the same position as the die assembly 21 in the front-rear and left-right directions. If the nozzle station 61 is disposed at a position away from the die supply position P2, it is necessary to expand the movable range of the flip head 35 and the transfer head 54 in the front-rear and left-right directions to enable operation up to the nozzle station 61. On the other hand, by disposing the nozzle station 61 below the die supply position P2, it is not necessary to expand the movable range of the flip head 35 and the transfer head 54. Therefore, the flip mechanism 15 and the transfer mechanism 16 can be made smaller.
- the control device 19 moves the die assembly 21 to the storage position P1, and then controls the lifting unit 18B to raise the nozzle station 61 to a position where the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 can be replaced.
- the vertical movement range of the flip head 35 can be narrowed, and the Z-axis slide mechanism 34 can be made smaller.
- the nozzle accommodating portion 64 that accommodates the replacement first suction nozzle 43B is positioned below the first nozzle attachment portion 41 of the flip head 35 (see FIG. 11).
- the flip mechanism 15 moves the flip head 35 between a position where it adsorbs the die 22 and a position retreated from the transfer head 54 by sliding the flip head 35 in the front-rear direction.
- the nozzle station 61 has a fixed position in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction.
- the flip head 35 has a fixed position in the left-right direction. This not only eliminates the need for a mechanism to move the flip head 35 left-right, but also eliminates the need for a mechanism to move the nozzle station 61 left-rear direction and the left-right direction, making it possible to miniaturize the device and reduce manufacturing costs.
- the first suction nozzle 43 is attached to the first nozzle mounting portion 41 by the magnetic force of the magnet 41D.
- the control device 19 controls the shutter drive unit 65 to move the shutter 63 so that the opening 63D is at the position of the opening of the nozzle accommodating portion 64.

- the operation of attaching and detaching the first suction nozzle 43 requires the operation of rotating the first nozzle mounting part 41, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a motor for rotating the first nozzle mounting part 41 on the flip head 35, which complicates the structure of the flip head 35.
- the first suction nozzle 43 can be attached to the second nozzle attachment portion 55, and the second suction nozzle 56 can be attached to the first nozzle attachment portion 41.
- the worker does not need to be aware of which of the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 they are, and they can be prepared in the nozzle station 61.
- the burden of arranging the first and second suction nozzles 43B, 56B in the nozzle station 61 and the management of the first and second suction nozzles 43, 56 are reduced.
