A Cost-Effective Solution for Offloading Your Surplus
Semiconductor Spares is a leading global buyer and supplier of surplus semiconductor manufacturing parts, laboratory equipment, lab test equipment, and scientific measurement and test instruments. Our customizable three-tier harvest program is a cost-effective method for offloading used semiconductor equipment, laboratory test equipment, and scientific lab assets. Our team of experts brings 30-plus years of technical product and industry knowledge, allowing us to identify sub-assemblies and instruments with resale value even when an entire system is not fully salvageable.
Three-Tier Service Program
Zero-Cost
Semiconductor Spares assumes any semiconductor equipment, laboratory equipment, or scientific lab instrumentation not scheduled for return, or adds it to your consignment inventory. This service is dependent upon the quantity and type of lab test equipment and scientific laboratory equipment received.
We assume all costs for:
- Shipping from your facility
- Disassembly labor
- Packing material and labor
- Return shipping to your facility
Low-Cost
Remaining surplus semiconductor equipment and laboratory test equipment is added to your consignment inventory, or Semiconductor Spares has the option to purchase.
- Customers ship scientific laboratory equipment and lab test equipment to our facilities
- Our team of experts disassemble and repack for a low service and material fee.
- Our logistics team coordinates return of designated semiconductor parts and laboratory equipment
Hybrid
We work with clients to develop optimal program terms for semiconductor, scientific lab, and laboratory test equipment asset recovery.
- Terms are fully tailored to meet your specific laboratory equipment and operational needs
Benefits of Semiconductor Spares Harvest Program
- Extend the service of legacy systems and minimize disposal costs.
- Reduce installation and repair time by ensuring replacement laboratory equipment and lab test equipment parts are readily available
- Decrease inventory storage space by stocking only the semiconductor parts and laboratory test equipment you need
- Receive a greater return on surplus scientific laboratory equipment, lab test equipment, and semiconductor assets
- Have peace of mind knowing scrap laboratory equipment and semiconductor material will be recycled or appropriately disposed of
Our Semiconductor Harvest Program Process
Receiving
Our team coordinates pickup and shipping of your semiconductor equipment, laboratory test equipment, and scientific laboratory equipment with your designated point of contact. Upon receipt, all lab test equipment and assets are inventoried, unpacked, and visually inspected. Any damage is photographed and a complete invoice is generated for your review.
Disassembly
Items selected for return are identified and removed as a priority across all semiconductor, laboratory equipment, and scientific lab categories. Any items you designate as unavailable for resale are managed per your instruction or destroyed. Remaining laboratory test equipment and semiconductor parts are added to your consignment inventory or purchased by us.
Packing
Individual semiconductor components, lab test equipment, and scientific laboratory equipment items are carefully handled to avoid contamination and ESD damage. Each part is photographed and professionally packed, ready for re-stock at your facility.
Shipping
Your point of contact is notified when semiconductor parts, laboratory equipment, and scientific lab assets are ready to ship. We prepare a detailed packing list including descriptions, part numbers, and sizes and weights — and coordinate return of all items to your facility or secondary destination.
Which Program Is Right for You?
How you answer the following questions will help determine which harvest tier best fits your semiconductor, laboratory test equipment, and scientific laboratory equipment needs:
- What quantity and type of semiconductor process equipment or scientific lab instrumentation will be harvested?
- Will the laboratory equipment or lab test equipment be decontaminated before delivery?
- Will MSDS or process residue information be supplied?
- Are specific packaging or labeling requirements required for semiconductor or scientific laboratory equipment?
- What is the expected turnaround time between receipt and return shipping?
- Will all laboratory test equipment and semiconductor parts return to a single location?
- Will surplus lab test equipment be available for purchase or added to consignment inventory?
- Are there specific disposal requirements for scientific lab materials?
