There is an image that it is difficult to change the performance and functions of existing equipment. How can you customize it to meet customer’s requirements?

Originally, we specialized in OEM design, but one day we were asked to do a special equipment design.
There, we made a huge mistake we still can’t forget. In the end, we used that experience as a source of inspiration and managed to acquire an ability to make proposals for next-generation equipment development. This project led to an increase in the number of special orders, and that is how we got to where we are today.

I see. This was the time when people started considering purchasing semiconductor equipment and ancillary equipment separately for cost reasons.

That’s right. Looking back on it now, we think the lessons we learned from our mistakes have been a great asset to us.
We have been approached directly by manufacturers, and we are still constantly growing by listening to our end users.　

You have made such great strides that now you can make design proposals from scratch. What is your vision for the future?

We hope to increase the number of joint development projects with equipment and parts manufacturers and to make NYS presence known in the rapidly changing semiconductor industry.

Thank you.
