SEMICON West: Accelerate Your Custom Equipment Design & Engineering

This post originally appeared on owensdesign.com. Owens Design is now part of AIR.
SEMICON West 2023

Meet with the Owens Design engineering team to learn how to accelerate semiconductor equipment design and development

With the semiconductor market expected to reach $1,380 billion by 2029, you can’t afford delays in time to market, as you navigate supply chain uncertainty, scaling obstacles, CHIPS and EPA funding opportunities, and the need to accelerate workforce development. These topics and more will be on the agenda at the upcoming SEMICON West.

Owens Design engineers and executives will be available to discuss your custom equipment and factory automation design projects, especially those requiring automation or laser development.

Share Your Custom Equipment Design & Manufacturing Challenges

Although we are not exhibiting this year, we’ll be available to discuss an array of custom solutions for helping semiconductor equipment manufacturers accelerate time-to-market worldwide.

Owens Design product development processes, including the development of semiconductor metrology and inspection equipment, are carefully phased to reduce risk, ensure the highest level of quality control, and get semiconductor manufacturers and OEMs safely across the “Valley of Death” while accelerating time to market.

As a provider of custom semiconductor equipment design and support for over 35 years, the engineering and manufacturing options offered by Owens Design have helped numerous semiconductor startup and established OEM and other manufacturer clients get to market faster while reducing risk and development costs.

The Owens Design experience with custom semiconductor manufacturing projects include wafer handling robots, integrated metrology and inspection tools, and wafer heating and cooling stations, and more. We also partner with Turner Laser Systems to design custom laser automation applications, including femtosecond lasers, micromachining and nanomachining.

Engage, Learn & Collaborate at SEMICON West 2023

Whether you’ve got challenging custom design needs, want to optimize your manufacturing process, or are looking to identify the fastest path to market, the Owens Design engineering team would love to help you find the right solution for your needs, whether it’s Owens Design or not.

If you’d like to schedule a time to meet with a member of the Owens Design team at SEMICON West 2023, email us at info@owensdesign.com or click here.
