Amerimade was founded in 1992 in Silicon Valley. Working with the entire range of device manufacturers from start-ups and R&D facilities to the world’s largest device manufacturers, we developed design, engineering and manufacturing practices and procedures for wet chemical processing systems that have fostered stability and growth into other applications and markets for over 30 years.

Solutions we provide include:
  • Manual and automated platforms with or without factory integration
  • System “front-ends” that support SMIF & FOUP material handling
  • System compatibility for acids, bases and/or solvents
  • Processes including develop, etch, strip, metal lift off, clean, electroplate, electroless plate, electropolish, electroetch
  • Electroless and electrolytic plating for back-end processing, including through-hole plating
  • Ancillary systems including thermal circulators, bulk chemical delivery, chemical mixing, waste collection, valve-manifold boxes, quartz cleaning, parts cleaning, and customer required add-ons.
  • Specialized cathodes and complete electroplating systems for the electroplating of novel materials used with full-wafer, non-standard substrates, and 3-D products.
MEMS
MEMS

Often combining solutions developed for Semiconductor and Data Storage applications, we have supported the growing MEMS and nano-device market since its inception. We now live surrounded by micro miniature devices such as pressure sensors, valves and accelerometers in cars, aerospace systems, cell phones, Drones, VR, etc.

Solutions we provide include:
  • Compatibility with a range of substrate materials including silicon, quartz, glass, silicon carbide, lithium niobate, porous silicon, stainless steel, and ceramic
  • Conventional semi-conductor-like develop, etch, strip, clean processes
  • Electrolytic and electroless full or patterned film plating
  • Specialized feature etching and boring processes using isotropic (selective) or anisotropic chemicals or electrostatically enhanced processes
  • Custom solutions for nano-particle applications
  • Industrial applications requiring precise etching, plating and or polishing of critical component features
