CollabraTech Solutions (CTS), a full-service capital equipment company, has introduced a direct replacement auto valve manifold box (VMB) controller.
The controller is designed to provide a cost-saving alternative, replacing the end-of-life, ultra-high-purity gas distribution systems in aging semiconductor fabs.

CollabraTech’s next-generation AVMB4S and AVMB8S controllers were developed to address these issues, extending the life of these legacy gas systems in the fab.
