About: Company Info
Making a Science Out of Designing / Building Complex Equipment
For over 25 years, Owens Design has specialized exclusively in designing and manufacturing complex, advanced technology systems. We have focused specifically on the semiconductor, hard disk drive and solar photovoltaic industries, and have turned product development into a science. This unique process has made us successful and attracted a world-class following.
Which is why seven of the top ten Silicon Valley semiconductor equipment OEMs are our customers. And over 60% of the world’s hard drive media are now produced on our equipment. And over 90% of revenue is from repeat customers.
Partnering with Owens allows our clients to:- Turn out an even better final product
- Save a great deal of money
- Save many months of time
- Maximize return on their valuable intellectual property
A Finely-Tuned, Turnkey System Assures Program Performance
What most customers like best about Owens Design is that we take real responsibility. Not just for one piece of the program, but for the whole program. Guaranteeing that your new equipment will work and meet its specs. And that everything else that we promise will happen, will in fact happen. And that all deadlines will be met.
The best proof of that commitment is our track record: In over 25 years, Owens has never once failed to deliver a promised system. That doesn’t happen by accident. It results from a comprehensive, finely-tuned program that Owens has developed over many years.
Keeping Ironclad Confidentiality
To maintain strong relationships with so many manufacturers over so many years, Owens has also made a science out of keeping each company’s intellectual property absolutely secure. That includes putting into place whatever systems or procedures our customer requests or that we deem necessary to maintain complete confidentiality of product and company private information. We believe our record of repeat business is itself a testament to our ability to keep each customer’s secrets secure.
It’s Like Success Insurance
Bottom line: the reason many companies use us (and use us repeatedly) may come down to something like insurance. They want to go with a "sure thing." Especially when the stakes are high and failure is not an option.
Which may be why we have lots of big names on our customer list. Such as KLA-Tencor, Applied Materials, Seagate, GT Solar, Lam Research, FEI, Hitachi and many more. But you’ll notice, we also have lots of smaller names, including a number of startups. So, no matter what your size, if you need to develop and build a new piece of advanced technology equipment and you’d like some extra “success insurance,” we should talk.
Because failure is not in our vocabulary and success is what we’re all about.
