The equipment division at Intevac manufactures complex process equipment that deposit highly engineered thin-films onto magnetic disks used in hard disk drives. Disk drive manufacturers worldwide use Intevac deposition equipment that represents approximately 60% of installed capacity worldwide. Our customers include Seagate Technology, Fuji Electric, Hitachi Global Storage Technologies and Showa Denko. The 200 Lean® magnetic media deposition system is one of the most successful product lines in the industry and was the first to be proven in production for the next generation of technology namely perpendicular processing.
Our semiconductor equipment manufactures capital equipment for the dielectric etch market. Our Lean Etch™ system is capable of addressing the most difficult 300mm etch applications by providing enabling technology and twice the throughput of leading etch systems in the market.
Value Proposition: Enable customers to produce low cost technology sophisticated devices by providing unique systems designed on “Lean Thinking” principles.
The imaging division at Intevac manufactures sensors, cameras and systems for government applications such as digital night vision and long-range target identification and commercial applications in the inspection, medical, scientific and security industries. Our military products include sensors and cameras for use in extreme low light situations, systems for long range target identification, and high-performance, micro-display products for near-eye and portable viewing of video. Our commercial products include scientific cameras and Raman spectrometer systems. Our scientific cameras and systems provide previously unavailable high sensitivity in the near infrared portion of the light spectrum and are well suited for low-light spectroscopy, physical science, life science and industrial applications within the commercial imaging market. Our Raman spectrometer systems enable real-time, non-destructive identification of liquids and solids outside of the laboratory, and are well suited to applications such as hazmat, forensics, homeland security, geology, gemology, medical, pharmaceutical and industrial quality assurance.
Value Proposition: Provide the most cost effective, most sensitive, least power consuming multi-pixel light sensors, cameras and systems operating in the visible and near infra-red portion of the spectrum.
