The only 200mm AMHS made in America
The most advanced 200mm AMHS platform for semiconductor wafer production.
BriteLab uses its Peakaso digital twin to design and build the vehicles, track, stockers, and control software that move silicon wafers through semiconductor fabs. Our products and systems have run in fabs across three continents since 2007.

Keeping critical production
lines in motion.
Every step of a production process depends on wafers reaching the right tool at the right time. BriteLab coordinates transport and storage across the fab, keeping tools supplied, shortening delivery times, and reducing the floor space required for automation.
Our proprietary system can modernize an existing line or support a new fab, with hardware and controls engineered around the demands of continuous production.
02Peakaso · AI digital twin
Design, validate, run.
Peakaso, BriteLab's proprietary AI digital twin software, configures, simulates, and validates an AMHS layout before capital is committed, then generates the build from the validated model.
After installation the same model stays on as the operating twin, with predictive uptime and maintenance built on fleet data going back to 2007.
03The benefits of 200mm fabs
About two-thirds of fabs worldwide run 200mm wafers, and their tools and process lines are built around these specifications.
We are the only U.S. supplier of this installed base, and support the production lines with systems proven across 20 fabs and compatible with qualified equipment already on the floor.
BriteLab is the U.S.-based source for 200mm fab automation.
04A better system, by the numbers
Engineering gains, converted to operating capacity.
Our AMHS is built to optimize the key drivers of fab performance: speed, space utilization, and CapEx. By using legacy-compatible infrastructure, fabs can deploy in stages, keeping proven assets in service while expanding capacity with minimal disruption.

06The systems
Everything that moves a wafer, built by one team.
Overhead Hoist Transport
- BriteLab OHT carries 200mm wafer carriers on multidirectional vehicles above the fab floor.
- The vehicles charge on the track and transfer carriers through automated stocker and operator interfaces.
- Under-track Zero Footprint Stockers place storage inside the transport path, preserving floor space for process tools.
- Multidirectional 200mm vehicles
- 4-station turntable
- Under-track storage
- SECS/GEM host communication
