Technical Superiority

These precision-engineered boats feature:

  • Ultra-high purity silicon carbide material (99.99% purity)

  • Optimized three-post design for minimal wafer contact

  • Exceptional thermal shock resistance (withstand rapid temperature changes up to 1,400°C)

  • Superior chemical inertness against corrosive process gases

Meeting Industry Demands

"Our 8-inch silicon carbide three-post boats address the semiconductor industry's growing need for reliable, high-performance wafer carriers," said Dr. Li , Chief Technology Officer. "They offer significant advantages over traditional quartz carriers, including longer service life and better thermal stability."

Rigorous Development Process

The product development involved:

  • 18 months of intensive R&D

  • Collaboration with leading semiconductor manufacturers

  • Over 200 thermal cycle tests

  • Strict particle contamination control measures

Quality Assurance

Each unit undergoes:

  • Dimensional accuracy verification (±0.02mm tolerance)

  • Surface roughness testing (Ra < 0.2μm)

  • Comprehensive visual inspection

  • Final cleaning and packaging in Class 100 cleanroom
