What Rochester Semiconductor & Electronics Buyers Should Know
Optics machining precision maps to semiconductor equipment
Rochester's optical fabrication heritage means local shops hold sub-micron tolerances routinely. Semiconductor equipment work is a natural extension.
ON Semiconductor sets local standards
Rochester's ON Semiconductor operations establish machining expectations. Align your specs or be explicit about differences.
Imaging heritage creates unique capabilities
Kodak and Xerox trained Rochester machinists on precision optical mounts and imaging hardware. These skills directly serve semiconductor inspection equipment.
Lake effect weather affects winter shipping
Plan for delivery delays during heavy lake-effect snow events from November through March. Use overnight air for time-critical semiconductor parts.
