Introduction of Load Cells for Semiconductor Manufacturing Processes and Board Mounting Processes
TEAC Load Cell Features
- TEAC's load cells are used in the semiconductor manufacturing process, from crystal growth to reliability inspections.
Customized production is also available.
Lineup by Process
Ingot pulling
A polycrystal is melted in a quartz crucible and pulled while rotating the seed crystal rod to make a single crystal ingot (ingot pulling by the CZ method).

*Overload protection
- TT‐XNⅡ:
- Protecting the load cell with a mechanical stopper at approximately 120% load in the direction of gravity. In the opposite direction of gravity (pushing-up direction), the load transmission component will be disconnected from the load cell to protect the load cell.
- TT‐XNS:
- Protecting the load cell with a mechanical stopper between 110% to 120% load in the direction of gravity, and at approximately 120% load in the opposite direction (pushing-up direction).
