LGD Has Invested 10 Billion Won! Continuously Over-charged OLED Technology

The Korean manufacturer LGDisplay is the only manufacturer capable of producing large-size OLED panels. At present, LGD decided to set the investment direction of the P10 plant to 10.5 generation OLED production line, and the production capacity will be increased from the current 30,000 to 45,000 per month. , increase 50%.

While increasing production capacity, production equipment is also a key factor. According to South Korean media reports, LGD and its domestic evaporation equipment supplier YAS signed a 10 billion won in equipment purchase orders, continuing to increase OLED investment.

Evaporation machines are the key equipment for the performance of left and right OLED panels. Large-size OLED machines are exclusively available from South Korea's YAS. Three YAS vapor deposition machines are used on LGD South Korea's 8th generation OLED production line (P9). This line has achieved a stable high process yield, with a monthly production capacity of approximately 34,000 pieces.

Although YAS has dedicated 8-stage machine technology, 10.5-generation line equipment is the first challenge, and the problem of sagging in the middle of the board will increase. However, according to informed sources, YAS has overcome the technical problems of various 10.5-generation line machines and hopes to ship LGD as soon as possible. LGD tentatively plans to launch the 10.5 OLED production line in 2020, but it may postpone to 2021 if commercial time delays are introduced.
