The Engineering Bench Behind the Equipment Leaders
Semiconductor equipment makers face a demanding equation: relentless NPD cycles, tools that must run for decades in the field, obsolescence pressure across hardware and software and customers who measure everything in uptime. Solving it takes an engineering partner with real tool-level depth — not generalist capacity.
For 30 years, we've worked inside that world. We co-engineer equipment and subsystems across inspection, metrology, ion implantation, deposition, etch, CMP, lithography and ATE, probers and handlers — spanning mechanical, electrical and software disciplines across the full product lifecycle: new technology introduction, product engineering, alpha and beta test support, manufacturing support, sustaining engineering and field and aftermarket services.

This spans development, factory automation, obsolescence management and aftermarket services, delivering full lifecycle engineering ownership for equipment OEM platforms.
We help OEMs extend fielded equipment life through hardware and software obsolescence management. Our services include operating system migration, feature backporting and end-of-life planning for legacy platforms. Field escalation support resolves issues quickly, minimizing downtime and protecting OEM customer relationships.
We extend equipment life and maximize uptime through field service support and predictive maintenance. Our circular aftermarket services include repair, refurbishment and re-engineering to reduce waste. Dedicated field escalation teams keep deployed systems running with minimal disruption to OEM customers.
We bring engineering experience across inspection, metrology, deposition, etch and ion implantation. Our expertise also spans lithography, chemical mechanical planarization and automated test equipment platforms. This experience covers 50+ subsystems, giving OEMs domain knowledge across front-end and back-end process steps.
Yes — we help equipment integrate with fab automation systems through SECS/GEM protocol support. Our expertise covers compliance with both 200mm and 300mm factory automation standards. SIMQUALIFY Pro++, our proprietary simulator, validates this compliance before equipment reaches the customer's fab floor.
We help equipment OEMs move from ESG reporting to design-led decarbonization strategies. Our Design-for-Sustainability framework embeds sustainability into product development from the start. Lifecycle assessments, environmental product declarations and Scope 3 tracking quantify impact across the OEM's full value chain.
