Brooks Automation 001-9093-05 – Elevator Arm for Wafer Transfer | Ultra3000i / 2098-DSD Platform
Engineering Background: The Brooks Automation Ultra3000i is a high-throughput atmospheric wafer-handling robot widely deployed in 200 mm and 300 mm semiconductor fabs. The Elevator Arm assembly (P/N 001-9093-05) is the primary vertical-motion end-effector carrier responsible for precise Z-axis positioning during wafer pick-and-place operations. Failure or wear of this component directly impacts throughput, wafer yield, and MTBF of the entire transfer module.
Product Positioning: Konmask.com supplies OEM-equivalent and genuine Brooks Automation 001-9093-05 Elevator Arm assemblies for MRO replacement, spare-parts stocking, and system refurbishment. Cross-reference part numbers 001-1957-02, 002-9010-21, 2098-DSD-005X-NV1, and 0021-32583 are verified compatible and sourced from the same supply chain.

Engineering Advantages
- OEM-Grade Precision: Maintains original Brooks Automation dimensional tolerances for drop-in replacement without re-teaching robot positions.
- Servo Drive Compatibility: Fully compatible with Allen-Bradley 2098-DSD-005X-NV1 Ultra3000i servo drive — no firmware or parameter changes required.
- Cleanroom Ready: Materials and surface finish meet Class 10 cleanroom outgassing and particle generation requirements.
- Reduced Downtime: Stocked and ready to ship — minimizes unplanned fab downtime versus waiting for OEM lead times of 12–26 weeks.
- Multi-P/N Coverage: One assembly resolves four cross-reference part numbers, simplifying spare-parts inventory management.
System Architecture & Signal Flow
In the Ultra3000i platform, the Elevator Arm assembly interfaces with the Z-axis servo motor driven by the 2098-DSD-005X-NV1 drive. The drive receives motion commands via the SERCOS or analog interface from the Brooks Automation motion controller. Position feedback is provided by a resolver or encoder mounted on the Z-axis motor. The Elevator Arm translates rotary servo motion into precise linear vertical displacement, carrying the end-effector (blade) to programmed wafer pick/place heights. Proper arm alignment is critical to wafer centering accuracy (typically ±0.1 mm) and must be verified after replacement using the robot’s built-in calibration routine.
Sourcing & Quality Verification
- Traceability: All units supplied with original OEM labels or Konmask inspection tags with serial/lot traceability.
- Functional Testing: Refurbished units undergo full Z-axis motion cycle testing and servo response verification prior to shipment.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is 001-9093-05 a direct drop-in for 001-1957-02?
A: Yes. Both part numbers refer to the same Elevator Arm assembly generation used on the Ultra3000i platform. No mechanical or electrical modifications are required.
Q: Can this arm be used with a 2098-DSD-010X-NV1 drive (10A variant)?
A: The arm assembly itself is drive-agnostic; compatibility depends on the Z-axis motor specification. Confirm motor current rating before substituting drive variants.
Q: Do you supply the full Z-axis module including motor and drive?
A: Yes. Contact us for complete Z-axis module kits including motor, 2098-DSD-005X-NV1 drive, and arm assembly.
Q: What is the typical lead time for a new OEM unit?
A: New OEM units carry 12–26 week lead times from Brooks Automation. Konmask stocks refurbished and tested-used units for immediate shipment.
Q: How do I verify the arm is correctly installed?
A: After mechanical installation, run the Brooks Automation robot calibration sequence (Z-axis teach procedure) using the system controller. Verify wafer centering with a test wafer before resuming production.
