Ultratech to open Singapore International Operations

Lithography and laser-processing system maker Ultratech Inc of San Jose, CA, USA has announced the opening of its new Singapore International Operations headquarters, located at #02-01, 1 Kaki Bukit View, Techview, Singapore 415941.

Aiming to better serve its large customer base in Asia, the Ultratech Singapore operations will include engineering and manufacturing for its lithography systems and other related products, which include lithography steppers for advanced packaging (bump packaging of integrated circuits) and high-brightness LEDs (HB-LEDs), and modules for the laser spike anneal systems (LSA). Ultratech’s international sales and service operations will also be headquartered in the Singapore facility. Laser processing systems will continue to be manufactured at the firm's facility in San Jose.

The grand opening event for the Singapore operations will be held on 6 December, with manufacturing of lithography systems planned to begin in late 2010 and the first tool shipments to customers scheduled for first-quarter 2011.

“Our corporate objective has been, and continues to be, to provide our customers with leading-edge technology at the lowest cost-of-ownership for high-volume manufacturing,” says Ultratech’s chairman & CEO Arthur W. Zafiropoulo. “With many of our customers located in the Pacific Rim... the new Singapore facility will help Ultratech achieve our commitment to meet our international customers’ needs,” he adds.
