Overhead Linear Automated (OLA) Wet Bench
Home » Wet Bench » Automated Wet Bench » Overhead Linear Automated (OLA) Wet Bench
The Overhead Linear Automated (OLA) wet bench platform is the most diverse automated wet bench in the JST product line up. Flexible in its design configuration, the OLA wet bench allows for this chemical wet bench to be customized for larger, heavier, and more awkward materials to be processed with accurate control, high throughput and production flexibility.
The OLA supports semi-automated or automated operation with a variety of integrated wafer input and output requirements. As with all JST wet benches, they are designed for ease of maintenance activities and comes with our standard 24/7 Technical Support.
