What about lubricants for electronics? Lubricants for semiconductor?

The lubricants used in the electronics industry are quite specialized, including lubricating oils and greases. Different lubricants are required for various environments such as clean rooms and production line machinery. It’s also possible to incorporate automatic lubrication systems as part of the overall factory planning. Feel free to contact Houcheng Taiwan for free consultation. With over 30 years of expertise alongside the development of Taiwan’s technology and semiconductor industries, we frequently collaborate in equipment planning for new facility constructions, integrating automatic replenishment systems to help you control costs and ensure smooth equipment operation.

Common applications such as 5G, artificial intelligence (AI), IoT, EV, networked medical devices, industrial robots, and mechanical arm lubrication often require faster processing speeds and lower power consumption. This demands more complex manufacturing processes. Many processes today require manufacturing precision comparable to advanced processes, resulting in higher demands. Even the smallest impurities can lead to poor quality and reduced yield. These systems must operate reliably to meet these demands.

Specialized lubricants can significantly enhance the functionality of manufacturing and processing equipment, but using the wrong lubricant can lead to unexpected downtime and contamination, incurring high maintenance and downtime costs. Specialized lubricants prevent friction and wear, prolonging the lifespan of components and ensuring reliable system operation. The release of oil and particles from lubricants can contaminate wafer fab equipment and products, negatively impacting product quality and yield. To avoid these issues, choosing high-performance specialized lubricants with low emissions and low particle generation characteristics is crucial.

Semiconductor manufacturing and processing equipment often operate under high temperatures and vacuum conditions, requiring high-performance lubricants to protect linear guides, bearings, ball screws, lead screws, seals to prevent wear.
