Atotech and ESI from MKS at TPCA and IMPACT 2024

The TPCA exhibition and IMPACT 2024 conference were held in Taiwan, at Hall 1 of the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, from October 23 to 25. Two strategic presences from the MKS brands, Atotech and ESI impressed visitors to the show. The crowded booth, numerous paper presentations at the IMPACT conference and the specially organized session on “Advancing AI Chips from Silicon to PCBs” attract special attention to the company, a leader in Taiwan’s AI industries, this year. PCB, IC substrates and semiconductors.

In addition to the enthusiastic participation in the exhibition this year, many senior executives from MKS headquarters, including CEO Dr. John Lee, also came from all over the world. In addition to the show, the executives also discuss and communicate with important customers, as well as the president of TPCA, for an in-depth exchange of information that will be valuable to each other. Through these activities, customers and MKS have become closer. During this period, the CEO was also interviewed by the media to publicize the industry about MKS and the contributions and efforts MKS can make to the PCB, IC substrate and semiconductor industries.

Teams from both strategic MKS brands have come together to represent the new combined company and its combined expertise in advanced PCBs through drilling systems, lasers, optics and motion with chemical processes and equipment for optimization of current processes and performance, as well as the next generation. product development, e.g. for advanced materials processing, via forming, glass packaging substrates, solar energy, batteries, etc. One of the focal points of the show was the optimization of InterconnectSM which can be achieved with Atotech and ESI products and services. Optimize the InterconnectSM is an MKS offering that provides advanced printed circuit board (PCB) and electronic packaging customers with a wide range of products and services to create interconnections in the most advanced PCB and IC packaging designs. Services include creation and evaluation of advanced PCB interconnects and electronic packages, access to MKS Technology Centers for installation, configuration and troubleshooting services, application development services , applications laboratories and support, design and development services, and maintenance, repair and calibration services.

This unique combination of MKS’s expertise in drilling and routing and chemical plating allows customers to accelerate their product roadmaps, solve challenges associated with new materials and finer feature sizes, and thus creating the interconnection more efficiently with better quality production and faster manufacturing time. walk.
