Atomic layer deposition coatings and equipment for batteries and semiconductors
Forge Nano develops atomic layer deposition (ALD) coating technology and builds the equipment to apply it. Its stack is dominated by industrial automation tools (Beckhoff TwinCAT, Allen-Bradley Studio 5000, EtherCAT, OPC UA, Ignition), and it is adopting IATF 16949, SPC and FMEA. Together these point to a shift from R&D toward automotive-grade, high-volume battery production, with hiring tilted to engineering and manufacturing.
