BREAKING: Elon Musk’s Terafab has already started ordering machines from Japan for its chip factory in Texas, according to Nikkei.
• One supplier was asked to deliver equipment in just a few months.
• Elon is aiming for a working test chip in Austin by mid-2027 and mass production in the second half of 2028.
• Terafab is aiming for 1,000,000 silicon wafers a month from 2032 onward. That would be 40 times the planned capacity of Japan’s Rapidus plant.
• About 700,000 wafers a month would go toward memory chips and over 300,000 toward chips that handle computing.
With Intel on board, Tesla and SpaceX are taking chipmaking into their own hands in Texas. The goal is to make the chips for Tesla’s self-driving cars and Optimus robots, and even for SpaceX’s planned AI data centers in orbit.

The Terafab Corp project is going well sir @elonmusk
STRONG SIGNAL 🚨 Terafab is moving forward at lightning speed because the engineers themselves have the authority to make decisions 🔥
According to Korea’s The Elec, a Korean supplier executive said that even questions sent during the early morning hours in the US get answered within 30 minutes to an hour. In his view, working with Terafab is completely different from dealing with conventional semiconductor customers.
An executive at an overseas equipment maker went even further: “I’ve never seen this level of execution speed in the semiconductor industry.”
Building a fab involves countless questions like these, across every tool and material that goes into it. When each one gets a fast answer, the time saved keeps compounding, and that could add up to a serious head start before a single wafer is even processed.
The chip industry spent decades perfecting how a fab should run. Terafab is being built by engineers who answer a supplier’s question before the US is even awake and are trusted to decide on the spot, and that may turn out to be the most disruptive process change of all.
Join the Terafab project,we are waiting for you.
