The primary mission of FALA's engineering organization is turnkey prototype equipment development, which includes system design, build, integration and testing. Although not limited to them, FALA has placed a strong emphasis on R&D projects, many of which have been tied to next-generation nanoscience technology. Working in this arena has given FALA the opportunity to develop a number of turnkey advanced technology systems. These leading edge systems have emphasized product handling and particle generation/control in both atmospheric and vacuum environments. Illustrated below, one such custom prototype system was recently designed, built, integrated, qualified and installed at SEMATECH International Advanced Lithography Center in Albany, N.Y. It represents the many skills and disciplines resident at FALA Technologies to deliver on such systems. The turnkey development cycle for this system was eight months, from concept through qualification, inclusive of all system control and integration software. |
