ABSTRACT:
The blowing ramp formed by the blowing elements makes it possible to maintain under an ultra-clean atmosphere the planar services of objects during their transportion or conveying, whilst using a limited air flow; the blowing elements are mainly constituted by a plate 2 having a central orifice 6 facing which is located a pipe 4 supplied with ultra-clean air; the process consists of placing the surface (11) of the object (10) at a distance (d) of approximately 1 mm from the blowing surface (7). The flow of air between these two surfaces is easily regulated in such a way as to be laminar, thus providing protection against ambient particulate contamination, which application may be applied to the conveying of silicon wafers.
