Abstract
An apparatus, system and method for a substrate flipper capable of accommodating substrates of varying sizes. The apparatus, system and method may include a base housing providing at least a portion of a rotating feature; an arm enclosure rotatably associated with the rotating feature and providing at least one arm actuator, and at least one gripper actuator; two arms at two substantially distal points with respect to one another along the arm enclosure, each of the two arms being communicatively associated with the at least one arm actuator; and a gripper associated with each of the two arms distal from the arm enclosure, communicatively associated with the at least one gripper actuator and capable of gripping one of the substrates upon actuation of the gripper. The actuation of the at least one arm actuator effectuates a change in distance between central longitudinal axes of each of the two arms.
