How to Qualify Which Semiconductor Equipment Manufacturers Meet Your Requirements

There are lots of things to consider when you review potential suppliers to use from a list of semiconductor equipment manufacturers. Below are some of the things to consider.

Can the semiconductor equipment manufacturer supply the equipment you need when customized solutions are needed to meet your specific requirements? Whether a customer needs to upgrade equipment, replace old equipment with newer ones or have new components integrated with existing systems, manufacturers need to provide extensive experience and expertise with such customizations. In that way, they will be able to supply the exact equipment that will suit a customer's specifications and requirements.

After Equipment is purchased and set up at a facility it needs to be reliable and stay online for long periods of time and with minimal downtime. The best way to find out if a supplier can provide equipment of such description is to contact references and review their reliability statistics.

Once a customer has chosen a specific supplier, they should review the warranty and support capability first before signing a contract. New equipment warranties usually come with at least one year. As for after-sales support, the customer should also check on the strength of the supplier's service department. The most generous warranties will not be of much use if the supplier has few personnel that are able to deliver on it.

Customers should also avoid suppliers that use third-party service support because it is a strong indication that these suppliers are not well equipped to provide quality after-sales support. The best way to check on a company's service ability is to simply call with a question prior to purchase. In most cases, it’s also best to use a supplier that has a proven track record in providing equipment and service to industry manufacturers.
