Aviza Technology Inc. has licensed its VTR vertical furnace product line to Expertech Inc., a manufacturer of diffusion and LPCVD furnaces for large-scale production. Expertech will gain full rights to manufacture, service and support the VTR products, which were originally marketed under the Thermco name and later produced by Silicon Valley Group, ASML and Aviza.
‘Aviza's management team made the business decision to license the VTR products to align with the company's strategy to diversify into growing and expanding markets,’ says Patrick O'Connor, Aviza Technology's executive vice president and chief financial officer.
‘This license ensures a smooth transition for customers worldwide, as they will have continued access to quality service and product support for this line of products,’ he adds.
