The growth has cemented our sound position in our legacy inspection businesses in the back-end semiconductor and PCB industries. We are also now moving from proving feasibility to actually establishing a position with our new front-end semiconductor inspection and sample preparation product lines,” Roy Porat, Camtek’s CEO stated in the press release.
