CVD Equipment receives extra order for ten PVT-150 systems for SiC growth
What happened
CVD Equipment Corporation received an additional order for ten PVT-150 systems for delivery in H1 2023, used to grow 150mm silicon carbide boules for power electronics wafers. This order signals continued capital expenditure (capex) investment in expanding SiC substrate manufacturing capacity, a key bottleneck for power semiconductors. Bullish: Increased equipment orders point to future SiC wafer supply growth, but near-term tightness in the substrate market may persist as new capacity ramps.
