Services at SEMICON West
Integrated Outsourcing of Complex Electro-Mechanical and Hydraulic/Pneumatic
Subassemblies Reduces Manufacturing Costs, Improves Time to Market
Santa Clara, Calif. --- July 16, 2001 --- Trazar Corp., designer
and manufacturer of Automatic Impedance Matching (AIM) networks
and RF power equipment, today will introduce its Specialty Contract
Manufacturing (SCM) services in Booth 4344 at SEMICON West 2001,
San Francisco, Calif. Trazar’s new SCM Division offers a
reliable source for the integrated engineering, production and
materials management needed to produce complex electro-mechanical
and hydraulic/pneumatic subassemblies.
“Industry studies have found that outsourcing a mere 20
percent of the tasks required to produce custom or complex subassemblies
can result in an 80 percent reduction in overall workload,” said
John Perry, Trazar manager of technical sales. “In addition
reducing the design, engineering and production time, outsourcing
to Trazar SCM can reduce the time manufacturers spend on vendor
quality issues, reduce the resources used to expedite products
and procure parts, and reduce the space required to store inventory
and produce equipment.”
Trazar SCM offers engineering and production of complex electro-mechanical
and hydraulic/pneumatic subassemblies, fixed and automatic impedance
matching networks, RF switching and filtering boxes, precision
compressed air and mechanical lift devices, vacuum relay devices,
and more. As part of its integrated services, Trazar SCM also offers
materials management, quality control and test.
The company has won numerous awards for manufacturing improvements
to its electrostatic chuck controllers and custom pedestal lifts
supplied by the SCM Division, as well as quality awards for its
AIM product line from semiconductor manufacturer Novellus.
Gary Ater, Trazar VP of sales and marketing, adds, “Outsourcing
the production of complex subassemblies is a strategic move that
semiconductor manufacturers can use to achieve a competitive advantage
in challenging market.”
