RF-Series Horizontal Tube Wafer Processing Systems

The RF-Series wafer processing tools were designed specifically to meet the oxidation, diffusion, and CVD requirements of the smaller wafer lot sizes often encountered in MEMS, MOEMS, Photonics, and R&D fabs.   

Without any compromise in performance, or process specifications, the smaller system footprint and lower overall form factors of the RF-Series furnace saves costly clean room space, reduces facilities loading and power requirements,  and improves ergonomic considerations for furnace operation and maintenance. 

Featuring HEPA filtered automated wafer loading stations, state of the art process gas delivery systems, and the highest quality materials and manufacturing techniques, the RF-Series furnaces are the production tools of choice for emerging industries as well as pilot line production and device development.
