At Materials and
Technologies, Corp. (MATECH) we are looking forward to 2013. Hopefully, the
uncertainty of an election year and the threat of the fiscal cliff will be
behind us and the industry will have a clearer view of the way ahead. We expect
that the visibility gained will result in improved capital spending driven by
more aggressive medium-term planning.
MATECH provides advanced wet processing solutions
for the semiconductor and solar industry. Packaging and multi-junction solar
cell technology became our focus in 2012 and will remain so in 2013. Advances
and tighter requirements in 3D stacking and systems-on-a-chip (SoC) will bring
new opportunities for our WaveEtch™ single-sided wet etching, thinning, and
cleaning technologies.
With an optimistic view of the future and faith in
the industry, MATECH invested in 2012 in the development of a new generation of
robotic heads for our tools, hired new personnel, and pioneered new materials
and technologies for our wet processor modules.
We introduced a new member of
the WaveEtch™ family: the Model 108 Lab and Development tool. It is a smaller,
more cost effective, yet fully capable single-sided wet processor. We also
launched a new version of our WaveSoft™ operating software with more
versatility, power, and an improved user interface.
At MATECH we are ready and looking forward to serve
our clients in 2013. To those that already are our clients we thank for you
sponsorship.
