AIXTRON SE has received a multiple AIX G5 HT reactors in 56x2-inch and 14x4-inch configurations order from Nantong Tongfang, China.

Nantong Tongfang placed the order in the first quarter of 2011. Delivery of the systems has been started in the second quarter of 2011 and will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011. A local AIXTRON support team will install and commission the new reactors in state-of-the-art clean-rooms at the company’s factory in China.

The Chinese company will use these systems for the growth of high brightness LEDs.

According to Mr. Wang, Vice President of the Tsinghua Tongfang Group, “With the new reactors we will be able to achieve the capacity increase needed for our high brightness LED products. They will augment our two existing AIX 2800G4 systems that continue to serve us well having very quickly provided high quality LED materials with excellent characteristics. Overall, we have a great deal of confidence in the total package from AIXTRON. The systems are reliable and economic and their back up service is first rate. For the future we are convinced that the G5 systems will deliver the best throughput and performance to support our manufacturing plans.”
