Czochralski Crystal Puller from Canada
A Czochralski crystal puller is specialized machinery used to grow monocrystalline silicon boules by melting polycrystalline silicon and slowly pulling a seed crystal to form ingots for semiconductor wafer production. It involves precise temperature control for melting and crystallization processes. Classified under HTS 8419.89.95 as equipment for temperature-based material treatment in semiconductor manufacturing.
