Now building: small-scale proof of concept
Chip fabrication that travels in modules.
Timetrack Modular Fabrication builds semiconductor manufacturing equipment as modular units. A line can be set up almost anywhere, including remote areas, at a much lower cost than a traditional fab.
The approach
A fab you assemble, instead of a fab you construct.
Traditional fabs are enormous, fixed, and expensive, which keeps chip manufacturing in a handful of places. Our equipment is designed around three ideas.
Modular by design
The equipment comes as self-contained units that are straightforward to move and set up, so manufacturing can start in places a conventional fab would never reach.
Far lower cost
A modular line is built to cost much less than a traditional fab, which opens fabrication to regions and teams that have been priced out.
Made to replicate
The first build is deliberately small. Its job is to prove a design that can be copied successfully, site after site.
Traditional fab
- A purpose-built facility on one fixed site
- Very high cost before the first wafer runs
- Growing means building another facility
Timetrack modular
- Units that set up where they are needed, remote areas included
- A much lower cost to stand up a line
- Growing means replicating a proven unit
Roadmap
Prove it small. Make a device. Then repeat it.

01 In progress
Proof-of-concept build
A small-scale set of modular equipment that shows the approach works and can be reproduced.

WaferWorks: first device
Use the proven equipment to turn a silicon wafer into a working device. About WaferWorks

03 Then
Replicate
Reproduce the same modular setup at new sites, bringing fabrication to places that have never had it.
WaferWorks
Equipment only matters if it makes something. WaferWorks is the step after the proof of concept: taking a bare silicon wafer through our own modular equipment and ending with a device that works.
That is where the name comes from. The wafer works.
