Company profile
HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. was founded in 1965 and has built its business on precision processing technology for quartz glass, using accumulated experience to propose products that respond to customer requirements for quality, cost, and capacity. The company supplies high-precision, high-purity quartz-glass products that are essential for increasingly sophisticated semiconductor manufacturing equipment. After expanding from laboratory-glass manufacturing into the semiconductor field, HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. made quartz-glass processing technology and in-house-developed machinery and equipment the core of its manufacturing operations. HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. operates three businesses within the quartz-processing field: quartz products for semiconductors, IR heaters and UV lamps, and equipment built around those technologies. HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. serves application fields ranging from semiconductors, liquid crystals, and optical fibers to environmental and medical uses, and its broader business also reaches food and solar-cell production processes. Quartz-glass manufacturing is presented as the origin of the company, and HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. emphasizes human-resource development so that manual-processing skills, technical knowledge, and know-how can be passed to the next generation. The company links its quartz products to technologies ranging from everyday electronic devices such as mobile phones and personal computers to 5G mobile communications, autonomous driving, and the broader spread of IoT. HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. combines its inherited Takumi craftsmanship with the latest technology in the products it manufactures, positioning those products as support for everyday comfort and new future-oriented applications behind the scenes.
Exhibits
HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. manufactures quartz-glass products for semiconductor manufacturing and also produces UV lamps and IR heaters for semiconductor, environmental, medical, food, and solar-cell production processes. Using its own lamps and heaters, the company manufactures equipment in-house, proposes units according to customer requirements, and provides total support from the examination stage through installation and operation. Material sales cover a wide range of quartz products from tubes to plates, including fused quartz, synthetic quartz, and opaque quartz. For manufacturing processes, HIMEJI RIKA CO.,LTD. supplies quartz products used across semiconductor, LED, solar-cell, and liquid-crystal-panel production. Quartz cleaning tanks can be made in various shapes according to customer needs, ranging from large single and double configurations to small quartz beakers, and the company can also handle container products made from hard glass in addition to quartz. These cleaning tanks are used in wafer wet-cleaning processes, include single and double overflow-tank configurations, and can be manufactured for wafers up to 12 inches. Quartz protection tubes are produced using long-developed precision quartz-processing technology for high machining accuracy and productivity, and are used in diffusion, oxidation, and deposition (CVD) processes. For high-precision machined quartz products, tubes and plates are processed with grinding machinery, including complex shapes, while contour processing of quartz glass and hard glass can include grooves, holes, and threaded holes. These machined quartz components can be used as joints and wafer holders in semiconductor processes. Quartz wafer boats are available in vertical and horizontal types, small-diameter quartz hangers, and special boats for solar cells, with repair, cleaning, and modification services also available. Wafer boats are used in diffusion, oxidation, and deposition (CVD) processes and include vertical and horizontal configurations that support automatic transfer. Quartz furnace tubes are used in CVD and diffusion processes, are available in vertical and horizontal forms, can be repaired as well as supplied new, and can be manufactured for wafers up to 12 inches.
