Give your technicians a strong, broad foundation across the tools in your fab. ESCT Fab Support’s fab equipment training covers hardware, handling, setup and process fundamentals on Applied Materials (AMAT), LAM Research and Tokyo Electron (TEL) equipment — ideal for new and cross-training technicians, delivered on-site and grounded in 25+ years of direct semiconductor fab experience.
Broad, practical fab equipment skills that transfer across multiple tool types.
How fab equipment is built and how its major subsystems work together.
Correct handling, setup and configuration, including Centura and Endura platforms.
The core subsystems behind tool stability and process performance.
Foundational deposition process knowledge for equipment teams.
Working safely and correctly within cleanroom protocols.
On-the-ground knowledge transfer for installs, moves and equipment projects.
Delivered at your site, so new technicians learn in the environment they will actually work in.
Up to four per class — enough individual attention for technicians starting from scratch.
Fundamentals in the classroom, then supervised hands-on time on real production tools.
Taught by trainers with 25+ years of direct semiconductor fab experience.
Scoped to the tool types your new and cross-training technicians will actually touch.
Trainees keep the foundation course notes and glossary to build on in later OEM or maintenance training.
Fab equipment training is ideal for technicians who are new to semiconductor equipment or cross-training onto additional tool types. It builds the broad base of knowledge that makes specialist skills — and faster fault resolution — possible later.
It’s the natural starting point in our training programme: progress to platform depth with OEM equipment training, or to upkeep skills with semiconductor maintenance training. A well-grounded team also gets more from the parts, repairs and upgrades we provide.
Tool hardware fundamentals, handling and setup (including Centura and Endura platforms), the vacuum, RF and thermal subsystems behind tool stability, PVD and CVD process basics, cleanroom working practice, and project support for installs and moves.
It is ideal for technicians new to semiconductor equipment or cross-training onto additional tool types, giving them a broad, practical foundation across the tools in a fab.
Fab equipment training builds broad foundational knowledge across tool types, whereas OEM equipment training goes deep on the operation and setup of a specific platform. Many teams start with fab equipment training and progress to OEM-specific courses.
Applied Materials (AMAT), LAM Research and Tokyo Electron (TEL) equipment across 200mm and 300mm fabs, with content adapted to the platforms you run.
Hands-on and on-site at your fab, typically 50/50 classroom and cleanroom, with up to four people per class. Tell us your team’s experience level through our contact page and we’ll tailor the course.
