The rapid progress of technology is nowhere more evident than in
the field of semiconductor manufacturing: integrated circuits are
becoming increasingly complex and electronic components ever smaller.
To enable our customers to keep ahead, Yamatake provides a wide
range of sensing and control products that offer greater precision
in measurement and more sophisticated control.
At Yamatake, we focus our R&D programs on two priority areas
- In-line Sensors and Design for Advanced Control.
These we hope to explore in partnership with our customers, to ensure
their needs are met.
In-line Sensors: In addition to conventional approaches
to making detection/measurement sensors smaller, more accurate,
faster, and more capable, we are experimenting with cutting-edge
technologies for positioning, measurement, etc.
Design for Advanced Control: Our other priority centers
on design for control, using high-precision technologies tailored
to different applications. In the case of heating process control,
for example, this applies to direct heating, indirect heating, maintaining
temperature, and temperature fluctuations, as well as loop interference.
Illustrated here are examples of specific applications that illustrate
which Yamatake products can help provide you with the optimum solution
in the design of semiconductor manufacturing pment.
