Import Tips

Document alignment with SEMI standards (e.g

SEMI E47 for ring frames) to prove industry-specific use

Ensure declarations specify 'for semiconductor wafer processing' to avoid general mold pitfalls

Maintain records of heat-resistant material specs suitable for plasma dicing environments
