DS Fibertech: Diffusion Furnace Heating Elements

DS Fibertech makes heating elements and ceramic fibre insulation for semiconductor diffusion furnaces. It has been building furnace heaters in Santee, California, since 1993, under an ISO 9001:2015 quality system, and its main business is direct replacement elements for vertical and horizontal furnaces from TEL, Kokusai, ASM, Centrotherm, Thermco and the SVG and Aviza range. Each element is built new to the OEM part number, or rebuilt from your used element to the original’s dimensions and electrical characteristics, and can be burnt in at the factory so it’s ready to fit when it arrives.

SiSTEM Technology has represented DS Fibertech in the UK and Ireland since 2008. We quote and supply new and refurbished elements and the parts that go with them. Send us the furnace make and model and the OEM part number of the element, or a drawing for a custom part, and we’ll come back with a price and lead time. The part numbers DS Fibertech covers are on the replacement diffusion furnace elements page.

Direct replacements for OEM furnaces

Elements for TEL, Kokusai, ASM, Centrotherm, Thermco, MRL, BTI and SVG/Aviza furnaces, made to the OEM part number.

Refurbishment of used elements

Your element rebuilt with new Kanthal wire, vacuum-formed fibre insulation, end chambers and terminal leads, to the original specification.

Burnt in before it ships

Factory burn-in forms the aluminium oxide layer that protects the element wire, so the element can go straight into the furnace.

Four heater designs, 350°C to 1,350°C

Vulcan and Hercules for high-temperature work, Mercury for fast ramp and fast cool, and Apollo for low-temperature processes.

Torches, vestibules and ceramic fibre parts

Replacement torch elements, vestibule blocks, end chambers, collars and vacuum-formed fibre shapes made to your drawing.

Supplied in the UK and Ireland

Quotes and supply from SiSTEM, for new elements and for refurbished ones.
