Domain Expertise

With more than 30 years' experience in facility and process equipment design and manufacturing, Dakota has a uniquely comprehensive understanding of gas delivery systems from the gas source to the process chamber. We leverage this domain expertise to provide emerging technologies partners design insights and manufacturing best practices to further their process technology. Our domain expertise manifests in three core areas:

Safety

Dakota was founded to provide gas delivery designs for applications relying on hazardous gas delivery. Not only is quality design and engineering integral to the performance of equipment, but more importantly it is vital to the safety of your employees. At Dakota we manufacture equipment with the utmost pride and responsibility. Every Dakota employee undergoes extensive training including a full seminar on safety and responsibility – both for our own employees and our customers’ employees. Dakota equipment has withstood decades of competing emerging technologies in large part because of the reliability and safety of our equipment.

Scalability

Our design-for-manufacture philosophy, strict ERP documentation, and calibrated-to-demand flexibility allow our customers to navigate the peaks and valleys of product lifecycle manufacturing. This is especially valuable in emerging technologies and next-generation projects. When we design a prototype, we design it with scale and manufacturing in mind so you are prepared for opportunity when it arrives. Similarly, our diligent documentation allows us to create identical machinery for repeatable results or design next generation equipment that can leverage existing equipment and infrastructure. The aggregate effect of a Dakota partnership is reliable process-critical systems designed to help you succeed.

Synthesis

With a history in both facilities and process equipment for emerging technologies, Dakota’s unique knowledge enables us to design an elegant symbiosis between the ecosystem and the equipment. We design with an ergonomic standard for modular design, scale and flexibility. The net result is easier installation, improved performance, and an optimized product lifecycle.

Designing for Manufacturing Scalability

We work with clean energy technology customers from prototype to production. In addition to our materials delivery expertise and manufacturing excellence, including diligent ERP documentation and supply chain management, Dakota’s production-ready facility features class 100 & 1000 clean rooms, clean assembly space, and final test bays to run complete equipment testing and validation before we ship.

The Dakota Difference

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology providers require ultra-high purity process materials and products that are economically viable in today’s competitive marketplace. You can trust Dakota’s experience in the supply of systems to the demanding microchip manufacturing industry to design and build systems to exacting cleanliness standards.

Photovoltaics

Whether you are an OEM supplying PV manufacturing equipment, or a PV panel producer designing and building your own custom manufacturing equipment, Dakota Systems can provide you with highly reliable gas delivery and control systems to make your process both reliable and repeatable. It doesn’t matter if you are fabricating crystalline Silicon cells or thin film panels, Dakota can provide a cost effective solution to minimize your cost per watt. Polysilicon furnace gas and water system.

Fuel Cell

Fuel cells require careful control of Hydrogen and oxidant to the membrane electrode assembly. Dakota Systems can supply this process piping expertise, allowing our customer the time to focus on the essential membrane technology that differentiates them from their competitors.

Dakota's expertise in gas delivery design will provide your company complete systems fitted with the required safety interlocks and gas sensor elements ensuring reliable performance.

Custom Equipment
