Notice of Start of Construction of New Factory “20th Anniversary Commemorative Building” to be a base for new businesses to start next spring

In order to start the plasma contract processing business as a new business, Sakigake Semiconductor Co., Ltd. will acquire land in Kyoto City and construct a new factory “Sakigake Semiconductor 20th Anniversary Commemorative Building”. Construction of the new plant began on December 1, 2022, with the aim of completion in July 2023

 

【As a base for new business】

We have mainly manufactured and sold plasma equipment for surface treatment processing to universities and research departments of major companies. We have developed equipment based on technology that is familiar with the principles of plasma processing, and have delivered more than 800 units to semiconductor and other electronics manufacturers and lens manufacturers.
In recent years, in addition to the electronics industry, we have been receiving an increasing number of highly novel inquiries from fields such as biotechnology and medicine. There is a growing need for new plasma processing for R&D and small-scale production, but there are many projects that are not on the market scale to introduce equipment
