Robust 12 inch FOSB
FOSB stands for Front Opening Shipping Box. It is designed specifically to transport 300mm silicon wafers between factories. We manufacture this box using high quality Polycarbonate. This material is also called PC. It provides excellent impact resistance during shipping. We also offer an optional RFID feature. This allows for smart tracking and digital management of your wafer inventory.
Technical Specifications
- Product Name: 12 Inch FOSB / 300mm Wafer Shipping Box
- Material: Polycarbonate (PC)
- Capacity: 25 Wafers (300mm)
- Smart Feature: Optional RFID Tag
- Application: Wafer Shipping and Logistics
Why We Use Polycarbonate (PC)
Shipping requires different properties than in fab processing.
- Impact Resistance: Polycarbonate is extremely tough. It absorbs shocks and vibrations. This protects fragile wafers during truck or airplane transportation.
- Durability: The PC material is strong. It withstands the rough handling of logistics. It ensures the box stays sealed and secure.
- Cost Efficiency: PC is a durable and cost effective material for shipping containers.
Smart Management with RFID
We offer an optional RFID tag installation service. This upgrades your standard FOSB into a smart container.
- Batch Tracking: You can track the location of every single box. It helps you manage logistics between different facility locations.
- Data Integration: You can link the RFID tag to your software. This allows you to associate the specific COA (Certificate of Analysis) with the box ID.
- Error Reduction: Automated scanning reduces human error. You always know exactly which wafers are in which box.
Common Questions About FOSB
Q: What is the main function of a FOSB?
A: The main function is protection during external transport. A FOUP is for the cleanroom. A FOSB is for the truck or plane. It focuses on sealing the wafers against outside air and protecting them from physical shock.
Q: Why is RFID important for wafer shipping?
A: Wafer shipping involves high value assets. Losing track of a box is expensive. RFID allows you to scan the box without opening it. You can instantly verify the contents and pull up the quality data or COA on your computer system.
Q: Can this FOSB be cleaned?
A: Yes. The Polycarbonate material is compatible with standard cleaning processes. You can reuse the box multiple times.
