  • Patent number: 6579052
    Abstract: A storage, delivery and retrieval system having a rear wall to which is affixed a plurality of shelves capable of supporting one or more wafer-carrying pods. The structure further includes a pair of vertical rails lying in a plane spaced from and substantially parallel to the shelf-supporting wall. The horizontal rail extends between and is translationally mounted to the vertical rails, which horizontal rail supports a gripper capable of movement along the horizontal rail. The movement of the horizontal rail along the vertical rails, and the movement of the gripper along the horizontal rail, allows the gripper to be positioned at any location within an X-Z plane including the storage shelves. The system includes a two-dimensional transport system. That is, all transport of the pods by the system occurs without the pods ever leaving the X-Z plane of the shelves. This feature contributes to the overall small footprint of the system.
