100 years of expertise | Maximum precision | Everything from a single source
The semiconductor industry places the highest demands on precision, cleanliness, and process stability. GROB offers high-precision CNC machining and automated production solutions for sophisticated semiconductor components – from prototypes to series production.
GROB supports you from the prototype phase to scalable series production of sophisticated semiconductor components. With our decades of experience, we enable micrometer precision, cleanroom-compatible processes, and scalable manufacturing for volatile markets.
Our machine designs offer maximum stability and process reliability for the highest levels of precision. To reduce the risk of contamination, we offer additional options such as stainless steel versions for the most stringent cleanliness requirements.
We offer the right automation solutions for everything from batch size 1 to series production. The integration of accompanying process steps such as measuring or cleaning directly into our robot cells guarantees maximum productivity with minimum risk.
Full production control thanks to intelligent job and process management as well as seamless traceability: GROB offers real-time transparency – not only for our own machines, but also for third-party machines.
From the initial feasibility study to the final automation: we develop customized solutions for your component processing. Through cooperation with specialized partners, we also offer integrated cleaning concepts that can be scaled quickly and efficiently at any time as needed.
We offer the development of efficient machining strategies with a holistic view of workpiece sizes, materials, and accuracy requirements.
Whether optical assemblies, process chambers, or frames – thanks to our in-depth technical expertise, we manufacture high-precision components of the highest standard. We increase your productivity through innovative technologies such as speed forming and friction welding.
From lithography machine components to vacuum components, we produce complex precision parts with consistent series quality, even in highly varied production with very small batch sizes.
* In cooperation with various coolant lubricant manufacturers
Our high-precision machining is complemented by perfectly coordinated cleaning and quality assurance processes. Together with our partners, we implement scalable solutions for pre-cleaning and final cleaning. This enables you to become a Tier 1 supplier for equipment OEMs.
GROB solutions are suitable for the manufacture of, among other things:
Support is provided for prototypes and small series as well as automated series production.
No. Our standardized 5-axis universal machining centers from the G series form the basis. Through targeted configurations and options—for example, in terms of accuracy, measuring systems, cooling, media supply, or automation—the machines can be adapted to the specific requirements of semiconductor manufacturing.
This allows development costs, risks, and delivery times to be reduced.
Depending on the machine, clamping concept, and environmental conditions, the following are possible, among other things:
The target accuracy is determined on a project-specific basis based on the drawing, the tolerance chain, and the quality requirements. Accuracies in the micro range are generally achievable, but depend on many influencing factors.
Together with its partners, GROB offers holistic concepts to ensure the necessary cleanliness, for example through:
The decisive factor is a coordinated overall concept throughout the entire production process.
The semiconductor industry is characterized by cycles and short-term changes. These conditions are already taken into account in the concept phase, for example through:
This allows investment risks to be reduced in the event of market changes.
The handling of sensitive designs and intellectual property is governed by clearly defined rules, including:
Transparency and structured data protection are central principles of our collaboration.
Various automation solutions are available for low-volume and, at the same time, highly varied production. These include, among others:
The spectrum ranges from individual handling solutions to AGV connections or turnkey solutions. In addition, control systems and MES solutions can be used for digital process support.
High availability begins with the design of the machines, for example through:
Coordinated cooling and cooling lubricant concepts for long-term stability
In addition, preventive maintenance concepts, remote service, fast diagnostic options, and optional condition monitoring are used. The goal is stable availability, especially for 24/7 operation in production lines.
