Brooks Automation MagnaTran 7 Vacuum Wafer Transfer Robot
About this part
Brooks Automation part 003-1605-283 identifies a MagnaTran 7 vacuum wafer-transfer robot associated with an OEM-configured TEL assembly. An observed unit also carries reference 601600-343-0002, but that reference is not established as a universal exact alias. MagnaTran 7 robots are top-mounted central vacuum robots; armset, wafer size, axis count, Z travel, and I/O implementation are configuration-dependent and should be confirmed from the unit label and Brooks QR configuration record
Configurations vary. Verify the exact unit before choosing a replacement.

| High-capacity arm option | 4.6 kg (10.0 lb) for Single Frogleg or BiSymmetrik arms |
| Maximum extension | Up to 1050 mm, dependent on armset |
Configuration-dependent characteristics
MagnaTran 7 was supplied in multiple mechanical and interface configurations. The exact build should be read from the unit label, serial-number record, and Brooks QR certificate rather than inferred from the part-number family.

Installation and service notes
- The Brooks QR certificate is the permanent manufacturing record for the robot and contains serial number, model, and configuration-critical data needed for service.
- Robots integrated into cluster tools may have system-specific settings and acceptance-test parameters. Consult the applicable cluster-tool manual, controller manual, and wiring drawings before changing configuration or alignment.
- Use an isolated 24 VDC supply and wiring rated for the full documented load. Never connect or disconnect the robot power cable while energized.
- Brooks continues to identify MagnaTran 7 within its supported vacuum-robot repair and refurbishment portfolio.
