Fortrend makes equipment for storing and transporting photomasks in semiconductor manufacturing facilities. Photomasks, also known as masks or reticles, are the quartz lenses used in optical lithography machines to print circuits onto a silicon wafer. An advanced semiconductor design may call for dozens of masks, so safely handling those masks as they are moved from one lithography system to another is a priority for chip makers. Fortrend was established in 1979 as an engineering consulting firm, then shifted its focus to reticle automation equipment in 1989. The company had a change in management in 2002. Founder and former CEO John M. Rush is the majority shareholder.

Kyocera International, the holding company for the North American operations of Japan's Kyocera Corporation, makes products ranging from semiconductor casings to knives and utensils.

Its Kyocera Communications unit provides sales, marketing, and customer support for Kyocera and SANYO brand wireless phones in the US. Kyocera International's Kyocera Solar subsidiary is one of the world's largest producers of photovoltaic solar cells.

The Solaria Corporation, a solar technology company, manufactures cells and modules for the optics and semiconductor industries. The company develops cell and module technologies that fit into the existing value-add chain. It uses a low-concentration solar PV multiplying technology that produces PV cells from silicon material. The company is based in Fremont, California with locations in the United States, Germany, and the Philippines.

NVE Corporation company was founded in 1982 and is based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. NVE Corporation (NVE) develops and sells devices that use spintronics, a nanotechnology that relies on electron spin rather than electron charge to acquire, store and transmit information. The Company manufactures high-performance spintronic products, including sensors and couplers that are used to acquire and transmit data. It has also licensed spintronic magnetoresistive random access memory technology (MRAM). The Company’s designs are generally based on either giant magnetoresistance (GMR) or tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR). These structures produce a change in electrical resistance depending on the electron spin orientation in a free layer. The Company’s sensor products detect the presence of a magnet or metal to determine position or speed. The GMR changes its electrical resistance depending on the magnetic field. In its devices, GMR is combined with conventional foundry integrated circuitry and packaged in the same way as conventional integrated circuits.

Sharp Electronics company is also a leading maker of electronic components and computer hardware and peripherals. Its flagship components business makes LCDs (used in everything from airplane cockpits to PCs to pinball machines), flash memory, integrated circuits, and laser diodes used in optical data drives. Sharp also makes PCs, printers, and cell phones; consumer audio and video products, such as Blu-ray disc players and LCD TVs; and a variety of appliances, such as air cleaning systems and steam ovens.

NANMAC pioneered true part temperature measurement for plastics, metal or glass; furnace temperatures to 4200 degrees F for prolonged periods, temperatures of a moving wire, fiber, or thread, plastic coating temperature on a paper cup, and surface temperatures of automobile and locomotive disk brakes--just to name a few. NANMAC's design team strikes a critical balance between art, science and engineering which leads to solutions that benefit our industrial and research clients, and the world at large. If your company employs unique processes, and requires temperature measurement on a regular basis, chances are we can be a great resource to help you do a better job with measurement accuracy, response time, and reliability, all leading to better results for you and your customers.
