NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., Feb. 3, 2011 — BTU International will introduce its next-generation thermal processing equipment in Booth I-33 at the upcoming International Power Generation Expo. This event is scheduled to take place February 16-18, 2011 at the Kintex - Korea International Exhibition Center in Goyang, Korea.


BTU's new TRITAN™ dual-lane metallization firing system will be introduced to the Korean market. This state-of-the-art system features increased throughput at 3600 wafers per hour, an edge support transport system, and a temperature spike faster than 3 seconds. The 90 MW metallization firing system also features BTU's unique TriSpeed™ technology. TriSpeed allows users to take advantage of superior ramp rates ― up to 200ºC per second ― while not compromising the drying and cooling sections of the profile. The three-belt, three-speed system provides revolutionary control of profile development.

BTU also will feature its Meridian™ in-line diffusion system. This system is the industry's most successful, market leading in-line diffusion system with well over 2 GW in customer commitments.
