Silicon carbide, engineered in Sweden

Xforge™ 450-20 PVT System

Grows silicon carbide boules up to 200 mm in diameter, in both n-type and semi-insulating conductivities, at working temperatures up to 2 500 °C. CE-marked, compact and stackable, and used daily in TEKSiC's own crystal growth programme.

Engineered for the process, not the brochure

Advanced process control
Precise pressure and temperature control with ± 0.5 mbar stability. Data sensing over modern protocols supports machine learning on the process.

Vibration-isolated growth module
Minimises vibration during growth and cooling, which lowers stress in the crystal. A dedicated sealing concept simplifies quartz tube and gasket exchange.

Clusters side by side
1200 × 1080 mm footprint with all interfaces on top, so systems can be placed back to back and front to front without losing service access.

Patented viewport
Process gas flows along the inner viewport surface to cut deposition, keeping the upper pyrometer reading accurate through the whole run.

Independent cooling loops
Each loop has its own flow and temperature monitoring, so high-temperature operation never comes at the cost of sealing integrity.

Moves on its own wheels
The frame rolls or takes a forklift, and is shaped for the loading trolley to drive in. Transport height stays under 2 800 mm on the pallet.

Serviced from the front

The electrical cabinet and process pump sit on horizontal sliders. Vacuum, cooling, gas and pneumatic components are all at the front for quick inspection. The loading lift is built around replacing the quartz tube and seals, so downtime stays short.

Water, electricity, pneumatics and gas connect on top of the system, which is what makes clustering practical.

HMI and GUI

A physical panel plus a graphical HMI over Ethernet. Each system takes a unique IP address on the local network, so several can be monitored and controlled from one operator station, on site or remote.

  • Hardwired safety signals: emergency stop status, low cooling water
  • Authorisation levels, so recipe changes can be restricted
  • Recipes edited offline or in the HMI, exported between machines
  • Continuous process logging with real-time graphs

Options

The system is configured per customer. Hotzone and coil are designed for the intended process.

Process services

Hotzone design, modelling and simulation, and manufacturing of custom graphite hardware, run as an iterative design loop with the customer.

Service, training and support

On-site installation and commissioning, maintenance support and training both on site and online, remote guidance, logging and preventive maintenance. Service agreements include continuing hardware and software improvements.

Diameter, conductivity and target throughput are enough for us to propose a hotzone and a configuration.
