Abstract: The teaching discloses a dual bidirectional minimum volume self-centering air tract system for transporting semiconductor wafers or geometrically similar parts-in-process to and from processing tool stations in a random type manner and embodying controls to identify and collect treated wafers in segregated lots. The enclosed system is at a positive pressure to avoid ambient contamination. The enclosed track system further embodies a device for the combined computerized control of individual wafer routing in the system, humidity, temperature, and particulate content of the fluid within and utilized by the transport system while supplying and receiving wafers to processing tool stations which may have a wide variation of ambient conditions.
