ARC continues partnership with Trinity Material, outlines CHES performance upgrades

Advanced RenewableEnergy Company LLC (ARC Energy) of Nashua, NH, USA, a provider of c-axis sapphire growth technologies and turnkey solutions for the LED solid-state lighting market, says that, after qualifying sapphire substrates at multiple LED chip companies, China-based Jiangsu Trinity Material Co Ltd is continuing to further improve the efficiency of ARC Energy’s CHES (Controlled Heat Extraction System) furnaces. ARC is currently working on the upgrades to lower costs and increase equipment productivity.

With two factories (Jiangxi Trinity Material Co Ltd and Jiangsu Trinity Material Co Ltd), Trinity produces 2-8 inch sapphire ingots for LED chip manufacturing.

ARC says that its CHES furnaces allow seamless upgrades without investment in entirely new furnaces. The firm is currently working to further improve sapphire production costs by lowering consumable costs, reducing power consumption, and increasing equipment productivity. Its CHES upgrades are targeted to further reduce costs in mid-2013. Trinity is poised to take advantage of these upgrades as they become available.

“In this challenging LED market, it is important for us to keep innovating, including supplying the latest technology upgrades to our partners such as Trinity Materials,” comments co-founder & chief technology officer Dr Rick Schwerdtfeger. “We look forward to offering additional productivity and cost-of-ownership enhancements to CHES products in 2013.”
