MCS Mask Cleaner System (Dry type)
The MCS Air-Knife Dust Removal System is an industrial-grade dry cleaning solution developed by M&R for applications requiring ultra-high cleanliness and contamination control. Utilizing high-speed air-knife airflow, the system effectively removes nano- and micro-scale particles in a fully non-contact process, making it particularly suitable for semiconductor photomasks, wafers, and other high-value precision components. Designed for seamless integration into advanced manufacturing environments, MCS helps reduce contamination risk, improve process yield, and enhance overall production stability without the use of water, chemicals, or solvents.
Equipment Features
The MCS system employs a unique three-stage physical cleaning process, including electrostatic charge neutralization, air-transmitted ultrasonic vibration, and precision low-pressure M-shaped air-knife blowing. This design enables efficient removal of particles in the 0.5 to 5 micrometer range, achieving particle reduction rates of up to 99% while ensuring that sensitive pellicles and mask surfaces remain free from mechanical stress or deformation.
The system supports automated handling with robotic flipping, barcode and RFID identification, and SEMI E121 communication, allowing seamless integration with fab automation and mask logistics systems. These features make MCS an essential tool for advanced lithography environments, including EUV, ArF, and KrF processes, where cleanliness directly impacts yield, mask lifetime, and manufacturing reliability.
