Abstract
A singulation system for a workpiece has a carrier for mounting the workpiece during singulation and a receptacle for collecting debris formed. A driving mechanism, which is operative to move the carrier and the workpiece, is at least partially covered by a bellows. A bellows protecting cover extending over the bellows is coupled between the carrier and the receptacle and is operative to guide debris from the carrier along its longitudinal length towards the receptacle. The bellows protecting cover further comprises side walls extending along opposite sides of its longitudinal length to prevent debris from falling off its sides.
