Semiconductor manufacturing involves demanding operating conditions such as high vacuum, high temperatures, and 24-hour continuous operation, which can easily cause ordinary lubricants to volatilize and outgas, generate dynamic particulate contamination, and dry out or harden, resulting in equipment sticking, insufficient vacuum levels, and wafer contamination. At the same time, non-specialized metalworking fluids may harm optical systems, while cleaning-agent residues and elevated ionic impurities can cause secondary contamination, fail to meet industry cleanliness standards, and increase line downtime and maintenance costs.

FUCHS’ semiconductor industry solutions cover three product lines: metalworking fluids, cleaners, and special lubricants for vacuum and cleanroom applications. Many products have been certified by leading international companies such as ASML and DMG MORI. With a comprehensive product portfolio and integrated service system, FUCHS supports the full process from component machining and equipment maintenance to mass-production assembly, helping semiconductor companies reduce contamination risks, improve wafer yield, and ensure stable production line operation.
