【Member News】From Equipment Manufacturing to Industry Empowerment | Shandong Liguan’s 14-Year Journey in Advancing Semiconductor Equipment Localization

      Shandong Liguan was founded in 2013 and is a specialized company with extensive experience in the field of high-end process equipment for integrated circuits in China.

      Since its establishment, the company has remained committed to independent R&D, focusing on the development of core semiconductor equipment technologies. Keeping pace with global semiconductor technology evolution, Liguan has adhered to long-term technological accumulation, continuously optimized equipment performance, enhanced intelligent manufacturing capabilities, and gradually established a comprehensive product portfolio covering semiconductor chip manufacturing equipment and crystal growth equipment.

      Over fourteen years of development, Shandong Liguan has evolved from a single equipment manufacturer into a provider of customized turnkey solutions; from achieving technological breakthroughs to enabling comprehensive industry development. Leveraging its robust technological capabilities, the company has steadily strengthened its core competitiveness and contributed to breaking technical barriers in domestic semiconductor equipment.

      Based on the diversified development needs of the semiconductor industry, Shandong Liguan strategically focuses on two core equipment segments, targeting key technical challenges in specialized fields and providing comprehensive support for critical semiconductor manufacturing processes.

      As the semiconductor industry advances toward larger wafer sizes, higher precision, and improved stability, the process accuracy, operational reliability, and intelligent capabilities of wafer fabrication equipment have become essential drivers for enhanced manufacturing efficiency and quality.

      Shandong Liguan’s independently developed 12-inch furnace tube equipment is designed to meet the requirements of key wafer fabrication processes. Through continuous optimization of equipment architecture, upgrades to process control systems, and enhancement of intelligent operation and maintenance modules, the equipment ensures stable operation and process consistency, providing reliable manufacturing support for customers’ high-volume and high-precision production needs.

      Capitalizing on the rapid growth opportunities in the third-generation semiconductor industry, Shandong Liguan has proactively expanded into the field of compound semiconductor crystal growth equipment, addressing critical equipment gaps in the semiconductor supply chain from the material production stage.

      The company’s equipment portfolio covers key compound semiconductor materials, including InP, Ga₂O₃, and GaAs, supporting a wide range of material preparation applications. These solutions are designed to meet the growing demands of emerging fields such as 5G communications, new energy, high-power electronics, and intelligent terminals, providing essential equipment support for the large-scale and high-end development of the third-generation semiconductor industry.

      The competition in the semiconductor equipment industry has long extended beyond single equipment manufacturing, evolving into a comprehensive competition encompassing technological capabilities, service systems, and continuous innovation capacity.

      Leveraging years of industry expertise, Shandong Liguan has developed an integrated development strategy combining equipment manufacturing with technical services. By breaking the limitations of standalone product offerings, the company provides customers with full-chain, professional, and integrated semiconductor equipment solutions.

      From precise alignment with project requirements and customized equipment design in the early stages, to standardized manufacturing and on-site installation and commissioning during implementation, and subsequently to equipment maintenance and iterative upgrades, Liguan supports customers throughout the entire project lifecycle, helping them achieve cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and production capacity expansion.
