What it is

The Edwards iGX600M is a dry vacuum pump designed for semiconductor manufacturing and other industrial vacuum applications.[2][3][1]

The iGX600M is part of the Edwards iGX series of dry pumping systems, which are intended for continuous pumping duty across a range of pressures.[3][4]

Where it fits in the process flow

The iGX600M can be installed on-tool, close to the process chamber, or in a remote pump area, allowing flexibility in fab layout.[3]

Applications

The Edwards iGX600M dry vacuum pump is suitable for processes including load lock, transfer, metrology, lithography, PVD (physical vapor deposition), PVD pre-clean, RTA (rapid thermal annealing), strip/ashing, oxide etch, silicon etch, metal etch, and ion implant source pumping.[1]

The iGX series pumps are available in variants and configurations to handle applications from clean processes through to medium-duty processes.[3]
