Wacker Siltronic Corporation has
shipped the first crystals grown at its
new manufacturing plant site in
Northwest Portland, according to
Executive Vice President Dr. Hans
Herrmann.
The crystal shipment was a
milestone in more than one way for
Wacker Siltronic. It was packed one
year to the day when Wacker
Siltronic began training its first
instructors. The crystals were also
grown and inspected by some o f the
400 students undergoing training for
technical jobs at Wacker Siltronic.
The students are learning the
various phases o f crystal growing
and wafer production from Wacker-
trained instructors at Portland
Community College and at the
Wacker Dlant site.
W acker’ s $60 m illio n m anu­
facturing plant is approxim ately
three-quarters completed with fu ll
production anticipated to start this
summer. Equipm ent is being in ­
stalled and tested on a daily basis at
the plant site where hyperpure
silicon single crystals and polished
wafers w ill be produced.
