Welcome to WPS' New Blog

Alot has happened since our humble beginnings 27 years ago. It's hard to imagine that armed with alot of ambition and energy, but less than $1400.00, Doug Caldwell decided to leave his position as field service engineer at Semifab and start a new company called Wafer Process Systems. Actually, Doug had first wanted to call his new company Wet Dreams, but that idea was vetoed. Looking back now, I think his original idea was a really good one! No one would have forgotten that name!

Initially, WPS only serviced existing equipment in the Silicon Valley. As our reputation for outstanding service and knowledge of the industry grew, so did the services we supplied. Soon after WPS was begun, we manufactured our first wet process bench for Fairchild in Mtn. View.

I'll continue with this walk down memory lane later, back to work for now :)
