Atomic layer deposition coatings for semiconductors, batteries, and critical infrastructure
Forge Nano operates a nanotech coating platform (Atomic Armor™) built on atomic layer deposition (ALD) technology. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-heavy operation—SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Beckhoff TwinCAT, Allen Bradley controls—paired with emerging Industry 4.0 automation and ERP-MES integration efforts. Active hiring skews 6 engineers + 5 manufacturing roles, with concurrent adoption of IATF 16949 and SPC, signaling a push toward scaled production and automotive-grade quality systems.
Forge Nano applies atomic layer deposition to strengthen semiconductors, lithium-ion batteries, catalysts, and pharmaceutical compounds at the atomic scale. The company sells into energy, defense, and advanced-technology markets where coating performance directly impacts system reliability. At 51–200 employees and founded in 2011, Forge Nano is scaling from R&D into production: active projects span battery prototyping lines, ALDX process development, tool qualification, and assembly automation. Current friction points include ERP-MES integration gaps, real-time production visibility, equipment maintenance, and managing process variability across scale-up—typical of a company transitioning from pilot to manufacturing operations.
