You need the water gone—fast—but you can&rsquo;t afford water marks or the kind of thermal stress that ruins a batch. For a long time, the go-to was convection ovens. But honestly? They&rsquo;re a waste. You end up heating the entire chamber just to dry a few wafers. It&rsquo;s slow, it&rsquo;s expensive, and it doesn&rsquo;t exactly fit into the &ldquo;green factory&rdquo; goals we&rsquo;re all chasing these days. That&rsquo;s why we switched to short-wave infrared (IR) lamps. Instead of heating the air, we hit the wafer surface directly.</p>
