AMEC 中微公司
An important domestic etch-equipment supplier.
What the evidence says
AMEC's half-year report provides production-line, customer-validation and repeat-order evidence across etch and tungsten deposition. It does not name customers or disclose advanced-node yield, uptime, throughput, installed capacity or complete-process independence.

Timeline →reported
AMEC expands its process-tool portfolio with six CSEAC launches
Science and Technology Daily reports six AMEC launches spanning very-high-aspect-ratio etch, PECVD, ALD, metal-film deposition and silicon-carbide epitaxy. Reported product claims include 70:1–90:1 etch aspect ratios and a PECVD system processing up to 16 wafers concurrently.
Why it matters. The launches broaden AMEC beyond its core etch position into process steps relevant to advanced memory and logic. Announced specifications and portfolio breadth are not evidence of customer qualification, production yield, uptime or a sovereign end-to-end fab process.

AMEC reports production deployment and repeat orders across etch and tungsten deposition
AMEC's half-year report says three ICP etch product families were in volume production on lines at more than 50 customers. It also reports stable production use of its LUX-Cryo etcher, multiple repeat orders for another advanced etcher, and onsite validation plus repeat production orders for tungsten deposition systems at key memory and logic customers.
Why it matters. This is stronger commercial evidence than a product launch because it includes production-line, validation and repeat-order claims. It remains company-reported: customers, process nodes, yield, uptime, throughput, installed capacity and revenue by tool were not disclosed.
