Mycronic receives order for an advanced mask writer
Täby, 29 December, 2014 - Mycronic AB (publ), has received order for a Prexision-80 (P-80) mask writer for advanced display applications from an Asian customer. The machine will be delivered during the second half of 2015.
The P-80 mask writer, which was launched earlier in 2014, offers the highest image quality, together with improved production efficiency for mask makers, and therefore enables manufacturing of future display products.
Each mask writer is unique and each mask writer is individually developed to meet the specific needs and requirements of each customer. The price for a P-80 machine can therefore differ substantially depending on the functionality and be in the span of USD 35-45 million. In addition to a custom made P-80, this order covers enhanced functionality including measurement capability during the manufacturing process. The extended functionality will be delivered later, probably early 2016.
“Production of evermore advanced electronics products makes photomask complexity evolve. We have developed and offer the P-80 to meet requirements for manufacturing the most advanced display photomasks in the most cost efficient way,” says Magnus Råberg, Sr VP and General Manager Pattern Generators, of Mycronic AB. “This is the second order for our P-80 and demonstrates the need for improved technology to meet future demands. With this order Mycronic has filled up the possibilities
to deliver advanced mask writers for display applications during 2015,” Magnus Råberg concludes.
