Ngokwalokhu okushiwo lapha, amaphesenti amangaki emakethe yemishini yokunyathelisa i-lithography ehlanganiswe yi-Ultratech, i-Canon ne-Nikon, i-MKS Instruments, i-Lam Research ne-Cadence Design Systems?
Context:I-ASML ikhiqiza imishini ye-photolithography esetshenziselwa ukukhiqizwa kwama-computer chips. Kulezi mishini, amaphethini akhonjiswa ngeso elibukhali kuyi-silicon wafer embozwe ngefilimu yezinto ezizwela ukukhanya (i-photoresist). Le nqubo iphindwa izikhathi eziningi kuyi-wafer eyodwa. I-photoresist iphinde icutshungulwe ukuze kwakhiwe amasekethe e-elekthronikhi e-silicon. Ukuthwebula izithombe okwenziwa imishini ye-ASML kusetshenziselwa ukwenziwa cishe kwazo zonke izifunda ezihlanganisiwe futhi, kusukela ngo-2011, i-ASML yayinamaphesenti angama-67 okuthengiswa kwemishini ye-lithography emhlabeni wonke.  Umncintiswano we-ASML wawuhlanganisa i-Ultratech, i-Canon ne-Nikon, i-MKS Instruments, i-Lam Research kanye ne-Cadence Design Systems.
Uma i-ASML inamaphesenti angu-67 okuthengiswa kwemishini ye-lithography emhlabeni wonke futhi uma i-Ultratech, i-Canon ne-Nikon, i-MKS Instruments, i-Lam Research ne-Cadence Design Systems kumelela ukuncintisana kwabo kuphela, khona-ke lezi zinkampani kumelwe zihlanganyele amaphesenti angu-33 asele emakethe.
