Semiconductors have become indispensable to our prosperous lives. In addition to this, they play a significant role in energy conservation and decarbonizing society. Until now, silicon has been mainly used as the material for semiconductors, but in recent years, the processing technology of compound semiconductors with better energy-saving performance has been developed, and particularly, growth is expected in the power semiconductor field.
Our company has been actively approaching the power semiconductor market by proposing transport solutions for compound semiconductors using silicon wafer transport and processing technology, especially for next-generation SiC (Silicon Carbide) and GaN (Gallium Nitride) materials. We have established a system to provide comprehensive solutions for semiconductor manufacturing equipment for energy conservation (electric vehicles, power control).
With the global trend to achieve 'carbon neutrality', which aims to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) to virtually zero, automakers are focusing on the production of EVs (Electric Vehicles) that do not emit CO2 during operation, leading to strong demand for power semiconductors. In the future, the spread of electric vehicles, electrical equipment, and renewable energy products is expected. In particular, the Asia, North America, and European markets are expanding as areas of demand, and the rise of power semiconductor manufacturers worldwide is attracting attention.
In line with the expansion of the above market size, each semiconductor manufacturer is also actively investing in facilities. Our company, which manufactures indispensable transport and automatic delamination cleaning equipment for the semiconductor manufacturing process, is also working on expanding production bases, securing human resources, and developing new markets in North America to meet the strong demand.
