How Bosch Rexroth Automates Tomorrow’s Semiconductor Fabs
Global chip production is expected to double by 2030. That means more fabs and, above all, more machines. In this episode, I talk with Jan Kazmaier from Bosch Rexroth about what this means for automation. Modern fabs run with almost no people, 24/7, 365 days a year. With every new chip generation, the demands on precision, speed and cleanroom compatibility keep rising, and AI chips are accelerating this trend even further.
Jan walks us through the value chain, from wafer production through front end and back end to electronics manufacturing. He shares concrete applications such as wafer pin lifts, spin...
