- Advanced Process Systems Corporation, founded in 1994 and headquartered in Hwaseong-si, South Korea, engages in the development and sale of semiconductor and display manufacturing equipment. Its product portfolio includes excimer laser annealing, laser lift-off, fine metal micro-machining, glass laser scribing in-line, film laser cutting equipment, rapid thermal processing systems, one drop filling and encapsulation systems, temporary bond and de-bond process systems, thin film encapsulation and sputter systems, as well as dry strip and descum systems. The company chiefly operates in South Korea, China, and Vietnam. Recently, the company underwent an equity buyback worth KRW 4,000 million in early 2025. Additionally, in a significant strategic move in July 2025, the Dallas-based Advanced Process Solutions, a precision manufacturing company serving the semiconductor and energy industries, was acquired by Provest Equity Partners, an Atlanta-based private equity firm focused on infrastructure and industrial sector investments, to bolster its growth in advanced manufacturing and the semiconductor supply chain. This acquisition highlights a major shift towards expansion and operational scaling in the semiconductor and energy sectors under new investment leadership. The company, previously known as Kornic Systems Corporation before its name change in 2009, continues to strengthen its market position by integrating high-precision process equipment and leveraging strategic investments to expand capabilities and customer base globally. Its services also include OEM support such as facilities and equipment performance management, upstream and downstream process consulting, calibration and validation services, and labor augmentation primarily for biotechnology and pharmaceutical clients in North America and Brazil. The company partners with specialized technology providers and supports a broad set of industries including semiconductors, energy, biosciences, and industrial manufacturing sectors. Advanced Process Systems Corporation thus combines manufacturing expertise with comprehensive service contracts and strategic partnerships to maintain leadership in its niche markets.
