Jiangfeng Electronics plans to introduce electrostatic chuck production technology and purchase related production lines from KSTE​


Jiangfeng Electronics and KSTE INC. signed the "Cooperation Framework Agreement on the Electrostatic Chuck Project". Jiangfeng Electronics intends to introduce electrostatic chuck production technology from KSTE and purchase electrostatic chuck production lines.
KSTE INC. is a leading Korean company specializing in the production of electrostatic chucks and related equipment and process development, integration and installation. It has mastered many proprietary technologies and business information in the fields of design, production and sales of electrostatic chucks.

Jiangfeng Electronics introduced all the production technologies required for the agreed range of electrostatic chuck (E-CHUCK) products from KSTE and purchased related production lines, and finally realized Jiangfeng Electronics' independent mass production in mainland China. In order to achieve the cooperation goals, KSTE is responsible for providing Jiangfeng Electronics with full-process technical support and is responsible for the design and delivery of relevant production lines.

Electrostatic chucks are core components in semiconductor manufacturing process equipment and are widely used in semiconductor etching equipment, thin film equipment, and measurement equipment. They play an important role in many aspects of the semiconductor manufacturing process. With the rapid development of the semiconductor industry, the electrostatic chuck market faces huge opportunities. Jiangfeng Electronics said that the signing of this agreement will help promote the development of the company's parts business, help the company better serve semiconductor customers, and have a positive impact on the company's future operating performance, which is in line with the interests of the company and all shareholders.​
Whats china domestic competitor for KSTE?

Why are some of you guys acting as if China can magically use a wand to instantly switch to 100% domestic. There is literally not enough domestic capacity to fill demand and it takes times to scale, become competitive, and have comparable quality.
The magic wand are US stooge politicians, is not in China hands, if the US ban Huawei from getting US design X86 chips that leave Huawei with two options or either they work with local companies to replace these chips or let the matebook die, the US have not give Huawei negotiating options. A lot of people in China especially a lot of liberals would prefer to that not to be case but the reality is showing them something different.

The issue as more and more export controls into the Chinese industry it points to that the more is becoming auto-sufficient, is happening naturally, is not just the government anymore, is companies trying to survive and companies trying to meet that demand, like a fire that at first need gas to start but then it can sustain on its on. Companies piece by Piece are filling the gaps faster and faster, for example machine tools for high end clean ceramics, SMIC making sensors for semiconductor equipment, IGBTs for excimer lasers, you have pharmaceutical equipment companies getting into ultra clean piping and there is a thousand examples more.

Don't worry I don't think is going to be 100% , although a lot Think Tankers says that is going to be two supply chains, one Chinese and another from the rest world, the reality I think when the dust is settle and done is going to be one supply chain with the only difference is that China is going to be a much bigger part of it to much of the dismay of these think tankers.
