PRODUCTS

PECeramics, Inc. (PEC) specializes in the manufacture of semiconductor ceramic components and spares used in wafer processing equipment. We can produce virtually any ceramic component used in the semiconductor industry today. Examples include end effectors and various rings and liners. PEC is skilled at producing ceramic semiconductor components with complex geometry and designs. Our goal is to provide high-quality, low-cost semiconductor ceramic parts by leveraging our innovative manufacturing processes and techniques. PE Ceramics is your ideal partner to cost reduce ceramic spares while maintaining the high level of quality demanded by the semiconductor industry.

Our fabrication methods involve the precision grinding and lapping of high-performance semiconductor grade ceramic materials: aluminum oxide ceramic (99.5% or 99.8% alumina), silicon carbide (CVD, sintered, or hot pressed SiC), aluminum nitride (AlN), and electrostatic discharge safe (ESD) ceramics.

Located near Austin, Texas, PECeramics provides strong technical support to meet the needs of semiconductor fabs and equipment rebuilders worldwide. Our capabilities include reverse engineering--utilizing our state-of-the-art CNC coordinate measurement machine (CMM)--to product design and redesign.

Do you require a modification or repair to an existing ceramic part? PEC has the engineering expertise to offer quick-turn grinding services—as fast as 24 hours in some cases—to keep your process running.

Product Focus: Ceramic End Effectors/Vacuum Arms
Why replace metal end effectors with ceramic materials?
1) Metal arms can bend and do not possess the stiffness of ceramic materials.
2) Ceramics are a cost effective solution--in some cases less expensive than metals.
3) Reduced particulate contamination.
4) Improved performance at elevated temperatures.

PEC’s unique profile grinding, glass bonding, and lapping technologies allows us to produce single- or double-vacuum channel end effectors while maintaining the critical seal between the lid and vacuum channel.
