HORIBA STEC behind many key advances in semiconductor manufacturing
- HORIBA STEC also creates its own waves by innovating solutions, making it the world’s leader in mass flow controllers
The ability to understand and act on technology trends is like riding waves in the ocean. It is easier to move through trends and respond appropriately if you can see them coming. In the world of semiconductor manufacturing, one measurement and control device developer stands out. Not only can it quickly anticipate the various turns and troughs in the information and communications technology (ICT) field, but HORIBA STEC also creates its own waves by innovating solutions making it the world’s leader in mass flow controllers. Many advancements in the evolution of ICT – from personal computers, digital cameras and smartphones to today’s data centres – swell from HORIBA STEC’s fluid measurement and control expertise.
