ASML now has four Japanese customers after it announced that Matsushita
Electric Industrial has placed an order (July 2004), for its TWINSCAN
lithography system for its 300mm fab based in Uozu, Japan.
ASML announced plans to increase its service, sales and marketing
operations in Japan to serve its growing regional customer base. This
sale marks the eighth location in Japan in which ASML systems have been
installed. Other successes in the Japanese market include recently
announced strategic alliances with Tokyo Electron Limited and Dainippon
Screen Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation, headquartered in Tokyo and
serving as the exclusive sales agent for ASML in Japan, was
instrumental in securing the order.
