About MDC Europe
MDC Europe is a provider of equipment, spare parts and technical services specialising in semiconductor manufacturing, headquartered in Switzerland. The company offers refurbished semiconductor systems and components such as probe heads, optics, mechanics, gold parts, chucks and spin-coating tools, reconditioned to OEM level. Its service portfolio includes refurbishment, repair, retrofit, maintenance, installation and calibration as well as rapid spare parts supply across Europe. In addition, MDC supplies measurement systems such as Mercury Probes and C-V/I-V measurement systems (CSM-WIN) for the electrical characterisation of semiconductor materials such as SiC, GaAs, GaN, InP, CdS and InSb. Customers include semiconductor manufacturers, OEMs and research institutes throughout Europe, among them ABB, Bosch, CEA-Leti, LFoundry and GE. The company has more than 30 years of experience in semiconductor manufacturing solutions.
