About Us

Experts in Semiconductor Wafer Handling

Who We Are

40 years of expertise in the semiconductor industry

Located in the southwest of France, we specialize in designing, manufacturing, and distributing fully automated atmospheric handling equipment, wafer sorters, and Equipment Front End Modules (EFEMs).

Our journey, which began in the early 1980s, has seen us progress from manual tools to automated systems, establishing our reputation as a leader in wafer handling and tracking.

Over the years, we have built a solid reputation as an innovative industry leader: our early and continued adoption of SEMI standards and automation technologies has rooted us as an advanced semiconductor equipment manufacturer. As the industry advances with increasingly complex and sensitive technologies, our products adhere to the highest industry standards and meet stringent cleanroom requirements.

Committed to global customer satisfaction, we have established our presence in key electronic industry hubs to provide proximity and support, with offices in the USA, Asia, and our headquarters in France.
