Problems solved by technology

However, the transposition of the workpiece table by rotating the entire base has problems such as large moment of inertia, difficulty in precise positioning of high-power rotary motors, and high heat generation that cause system temperature rise. At the same time, the radius of gyration is large, which significantly increases the structure of the main body of the lithography machine.

Chinese patent CN102495528 adopts a rotary transfer table in the center of the abutment to complete the exchange of double workpiece tables. The table change is divided into three beats, which improves the efficiency of the table change. However, the structure of the rotary transfer table is complicated and the rotary positioning accuracy is low.

Due to the dragging of the cable, it will inevitably affect the positioning of the micro-motion stage and reduce the positioning accuracy of the micro-motion stage
