Company profile
Knight Auto Precision Engineering Pte Ltd provides end-to-end semiconductor solutions for testing and assembly and engineering design and fabrication services for Advanced Packaging, Consumer Electronics, and High-Performance Computing applications. The company began in Singapore by providing customized spare parts and high-quality manufacturing services for the semiconductor industry and developed international customer relationships through reliability and performance. It expanded into components for chip testing and assembly supplied to major Integrated Device Manufacturers and Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test providers. Knight Auto Precision Engineering Pte Ltd received the Singapore 500 SME Award and expanded its coverage across the semiconductor value chain from design and prototyping through final testing and assembly. Templewater I, L.P. acquired a majority stake in the company, citing its blue-chip customer base, design capabilities, and backend semiconductor solutions, with the partnership intended to support global expansion and innovation. The company acquired Champion Precision Manufacturing, a Singapore specialist in components for semiconductor bonding machines and wafer testing, and the KA Group identifies the Champion acquisition as occurring in 2025. KA Group also acquired Kei & Wah Engineering, a specialist solutions provider serving the front-end semiconductor equipment sector, expanding the group's integrated design, innovation, and manufacturing capabilities. Knight Auto Precision Engineering Pte Ltd has more than 30 years of engineering expertise, operations across key Asian markets, and strategic presence in semiconductor hubs worldwide. Its proprietary processes and specialty materials support quality and consistency in semiconductor testing environments where test accuracy is critical.
