Ameritherm to Attend Crystal Growth Conference

June 30, 2011 - PRLog -- Scottsville, NY — Ameritherm, an Ambrell company and a leading manufacturer of induction heating systems, will exhibit at the 18th American Conference on Crystal Growth and Epitaxy on August 1-3 at the Hyatt Regency in Monterey, CA.

At Ameritherm’s booth, representatives will discuss how its solutions can make crystal growing and wafer production processes more reliable, precise, and cost effective. Induction heating has many advantages over resistance heating including less energy consumption and more uniform heating which leads to superior semiconductor products.

Ameritherm’s EKOHEAT solutions give crystal growing system operators precise control of their heating processes. Output power is stringently regulated over AC line voltages, while output control is regulated from 2% to 100% of full power. This enables full temperature control so more of the boule can be utilized. Agile frequency tuning ensures required power is delivered under varying load conditions.

"We’re looking forward to the American Conference on Crystal Growth and Epitaxy," says Ambrell Vice President of Global Support Jonathan Gorbold. "We’ve been able to help companies implement induction and improve their crystal growing processes, and we look forward to helping other companies do the same."
