Innovation That Lowers Cost of Ownership​

We transform knowledge into simulated models that enables us to engineer the best solution for predictable performance over time.

Application Clarity Yhat Powers Collaboration

Our experts partner directly with our customers every day to understand and solve high-value problems they face within their workflow applications.

Right the First Time, When You Need It

Brooks works with our customers to develop the right solution for your challenges out of the gate, delivered when you need it.

Global Operational Excellence From Start to Scale

When our customers are innovating and need tools, we deliver proven solutions to meet their timeframe. When it’s time to ramp up, we’re ready anywhere across the globe.

Responsive Lifecycle Service Close to You

We enable uninterrupted, 24/7 semiconductor manufacturing operations with expert service, training, and support wherever our customers are.

Brooks partnered with us to innovate an automated solution that gave us an advantage in changing cost of ownership and time to market as we developed a new platform to implement our leading-edge process technology required for next generation AI semiconductors.

As we developed new advanced technology for devices, we discovered new contaminants were lowering our yield. Brooks was instrumental in early understanding and identification of the problem and quickly delivered a measurement and cleaning solution to ensure risk was mitigated before launching the advanced technology.
