Linde EcoSnow WaferClean 3600 - Co2 Cleaning System

The Eco-Snow® advanced WaferClean 3600™ System removes sub-micron particle contamination, post-etch residues, veils and fences, as well as thin-film organic contaminates from Silicon, MEMS and MR Head wafers using a unique carbon dioxide (CO2) snow cleaning process. Eco-Snow cleaning is a fast, environmentally friendly, “all dry” non-contact process that offers numerous advantages over conventional wet cleaning systems.
