A CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) apparatus having a measuring device for measuring a guide ring. A polishing table is provided. A wafer loading/unloading device is located at a first side of the polishing table. A measuring device is located at a second side of the polishing table. A carrier having a first lateral and a second lateral opposite the first lateral, wherein the first lateral faces the polishing table, the wafer loading/unloading device or the measuring device. A guide ring is disposed on the first lateral of the carrier. A transfer device is disposed on the second lateral of the carrier and connected to the carrier, wherein the transfer device is used to move the carrier onto the polishing table, the wafer loading/unloading device or the measuring device. The measuring device is used to automatically and immediately measure the severity of scoring on the guide ring.

Chemical mechanical polishing apparatus having a measuring device for measuring a guide ring

A device used for detecting the clamping force of a processed object and a method thereof are proposed. The device comprises a detection unit, a basis component and a pressure detection component disposed on the basis component. The basis component having the pressure detection component is closely placed between pivotal rods so that the detection unit can detect variation of electric properties of the pressure detection component to adjust the spacing between the pivotal rods, hence facilitating adjustment of the clamping force.

Device used for detecting clamping force of processed object and method thereof

A chemical mechanical polish apparatus comprises a platen having a polishing pad thereon, a wafer carrier holding a wafer on the polishing pad, and a pusher. The pusher has a base disk and at least two guiding structures at the rim of the base disk. Each guiding structure has a shell with an opening, an elastic device and a pin moving through the opening, wherein the opening is non-linear.
