3M Expands its Wafer Transport System to Enable Simplified Packaging and Increased Freight Savings.ST. PAUL St. Paul as a missionary he fearlessly confronts the “perils of waters, of robbers, in the city, in the wilderness.” [N.T.: II Cor. 11:26] See : Bravery , Minn. -- Newest Addition Includes Air Cushion air cushion n. 1. Trapped air that supports a vehicle a short distance above the surface of land or water. 2. A device that uses trapped air to absorb the shock of motion, especially in vehicles. Also called air spring. Packaging Design for 300mm Wafer Front Opening Shipping Box 3M today announced it has expanded the 3M Wafer Transport System portfolio to include Air Cushion Packaging (ACP (Associate Computing Professional) The award for successful completion of an examination in computers offered by the ICCP. It is geared to newcomers in the computing field. For more information, visit www.iccp.org. ACP - Algebra of Communicating Processes ) for 300mm wafer front opening shipping boxes (FOSB FOSB Front-Opening Shipping Box (container for wafers) ). Customers will benefit from the design's improved wafer cushioning, analytical testing capability and overall freight cost reductions. The 3M Air Cushion Packaging for 300mm wafer FOSB joins a host of products and services that utilize Six Sigma Not to be confused with Sigma 6. Six Sigma is a set of practices originally developed by Motorola to systematically improve processes by eliminating defects.[1] A defect is defined as nonconformity of a product or service to its specifications. methodology to maximize the performance of an entire semiconductor packing and shipping process. "Our objective is to continually expand our Wafer Transport System offerings to meet the high packing and shipping demands for semiconductor companies," said Takehiko Nakamura, product manager, 3M Industrial Services and Solutions Division. "Our Air Cushion Packaging for 300mm wafer FOSB allows companies to better manage the entire wafer packing process by reducing dimensional weight Dimensional weight, used in shipping and freight, is a billing technique which takes into account the volume of a package. Significance Shipping costs have historically been calculated on the basis of gross weight in kilograms or pounds. by 50 percent, resulting in reduced freight costs." The 3M Air Cushion Packaging for 300mm wafer FOSB eliminates the need for bubble wrap bubble wrap n. See bubble pack. bubble wrap Noun a type of polythene wrapping containing many small air pockets, used to protect breakable goods , which adds excess cost and decreases assembly time. Its ease-of-use offers customers a more seamless packing and shipping process while demonstrating high-quality performance through analytical testing capabilities provided by ISTA-certified drop test laboratories. The 3M Wafer Transport System is designed to help protect high-value semiconductor products, manage waste and reduce packing spend. Combined, the two chief solutions, the 3M Horizontal Wafer Shipper SHIPPER. One who ships or puts goods on board of a vessel, to be carried to another place during her voyage. In general, the shipper is bound to pay for the hire of the vessel, or the freight of the goods. 1 Bouv. Inst. n. 1030. and 3M Air Cushion Packaging offer a unique space-efficient packaging system that results in freight savings that can reduce overall shipping costs by as much as 70 percent.
