Integrated compressed air and air treatment technologies target clean, reliable and energy-efficient utility infrastructure at SEMICON India 2026

New Delhi, 17 September 2026: Atlas Copco is showcasing its advanced compressed air and air treatment technologies for semiconductor manufacturing at SEMICON India 2026, highlighting the importance of clean, dry, oil-free and reliable compressed air in India’s rapidly developing semiconductor ecosystem.

With major investments being made across semiconductor fabrication, packaging, testing and electronics manufacturing, dependable utility infrastructure is becoming increasingly important. Compressed air is a critical utility for a range of production, automation and instrumentation applications, where contamination, moisture and pressure fluctuations can affect process quality and operational reliability.

Integrated Compressed Air Solutions for Semiconductor Manufacturing

At SEMICON India 2026, Atlas Copco is presenting an integrated portfolio designed to deliver consistent, high-quality compressed air from the utility room through to the point of use.

The showcased technologies include ZH/ZH+ oil-free centrifugal compressors, ZR/ZT screw compressors, XDG and MDG heat-of-compression dryers, TCX industrial chillers, TDV adiabatic coolers, EH heat pumps and AIRCUBE pre-engineered compressor rooms.

The portfolio also includes high-efficiency fine filtration systems and Optimizer 4.0 intelligent control, enabling manufacturers to monitor and optimise compressed air generation and distribution.

Supporting Critical Semiconductor Processes

High-quality compressed air is used across several semiconductor manufacturing applications, including purging, cool-down and drying, photolithography equipment, instrumentation and factory automation.

For contamination-sensitive production environments, the consistency and purity of the air supply can be particularly important. Atlas Copco’s combination of oil-free compression, advanced air treatment, filtration and intelligent controls is designed to help manufacturers maintain reliable utility conditions while managing energy consumption.

Focus on Energy Efficiency and Lifecycle Costs

Atlas Copco’s solutions combine certified oil-free compression with air treatment technologies, connected monitoring and intelligent control systems. The company says this integrated approach can help semiconductor manufacturers improve process reliability while optimising energy use and reducing lifecycle costs.

As semiconductor facilities operate continuously and require tightly controlled production environments, energy efficiency across utility systems is becoming an increasingly important consideration for plant operators.

Supporting India’s Semiconductor Expansion

Commenting on Atlas Copco’s participation at SEMICON India 2026, Mr. Bhavin Pandya, General Manager, Compressor Technique Customer Center, Atlas Copco India, said the expansion of India’s semiconductor ecosystem is creating a growing requirement for reliable and efficient manufacturing infrastructure.

He highlighted the importance of compressed air quality, consistency and reliability in semiconductor manufacturing and said Atlas Copco can support manufacturers through its local and global engineering expertise, oil-free compression technologies, advanced air treatment and smart solutions.

Global Expertise with Local Experience

Atlas Copco brings more than 150 years of compressor expertise globally and over 60 years of experience in India. The company continues to develop compressed air, air treatment and industrial utility solutions aimed at improving productivity, energy efficiency and operational performance.

Its participation at SEMICON India 2026 provides an opportunity to demonstrate how integrated compressed air systems can support the infrastructure requirements of India’s expanding semiconductor manufacturing base.
