Abstract
A configuration for the automatic inscription or reinscription of wafers provides the wafers with a marking for identification and for process management during the production of semiconductor components. The wafer must be moved between different stations for the automatic inscription of a wafer in an appropriate device. Considerable transport movements are saved by the integration of a read station in an inscription chamber having a positioning unit for the wafer.
