Abstract

The invention relates to a dimensional control device for semiconductor wafer transport cassettes. Each cassette has a base from which extend vertical walls including horizontal grooves designed to receive wafers by lateral insertion. The device includes a seat provided with positioning guides of a cassette base; switches placed on the seat so that the actuation of all the switches by the positioned base indicate a suitable planarity of the base; a drawer mounted slidably on the seat so as to be engageable in the cassette in the insertion direction of the wafers, and having at least one template corresponding to a high position groove of the cassette; and a stop placed on the seat, at the side opposite to the drawer with respect to the cassette, to cause a tilting of the cassette when the drawer is moved towards the cassette and the template does not correspond to the cassette.
