SANTA CLARA, Calif. — BUSINESS WIRE — February 28, 2005
Intevac, Inc. (Company) (Nasdaq:IVAC) received a follow-on order for two 200 Lean disk-sputtering systems for delivery in the second quarter of 2005.
Intevac Chief Executive Kevin Fairbairn remarked: "We are pleased to receive this additional order and expect to ship and recognize revenue for these two systems during the second quarter of 2005. We are also pleased that the level of quotation activity for the 200 Lean is continuing at a brisk pace."
The Intevac(R) 200 Lean is the Company's latest generation disk sputtering system that provides significantly enhanced capabilities relative to the installed base of Intevac(R) MDP-250 systems. The 200 Lean provides higher throughput from a smaller footprint, which enables more thin-film disks to be manufactured per square-foot of factory floor space and is designed to lower overall cost of ownership. The 200 Lean's flexible and modular design accommodates multiple disk sizes, both aluminum and glass disks and the growing number of thin-film disk process steps required by evolving roadmaps for advanced technologies such as perpendicular recording.
