MEI delivers order for 17 wet processing systems
MEI LLC of Albany, OR, USA says that it has completed delivery of a record order for 17 semiconductor wet processing systems for a major semiconductor manufacturer. The primary applications for the wet bench process systems are compound semiconductor etch, wafer cleaning, stripping and plating processes.
MEI says that it was selected as the equipment vendor of choice for duplicating the semiconductor manufacturer’s processes of record into a new fabrication facility in Texas.
The compound semiconductor manufacturer requested the custom, semi-automated and manual wafer processing tools last September and needed rapid delivery. Both the compound semiconductor firm and MEI are experiencing rapid growth, the supplier notes.

“The contract is especially challenging and rewarding because of the strict performance requirements that the vendor had, combined with the rapid production schedule,” says CEO Dan Cappello. “With our Revolution rotary wet bench and Achiever wet processing platforms, we were able to meet their throughput and quality needs with custom wet benches,” he adds. “With our new production facility, we were able to ramp up and meet their schedule without difficulty.”
