Naintech to Supply OLED Transfer Equipment to TCL CSOT

What happened

On Nov. 6, Naintech said its vacuum- and nitrogen-based substrate handling system for Gen 8.6 inkjet OLED production will be installed at an overseas panel manufacturer's production line, with the equipment to be supplied to Chinese display maker TCL CSOT's Generation 8.6 inkjet OLED mass-production line through LG Electronics. Naintech signed a 25.4 billion won equipment supply contract with LG Electronics in June. The equipment is a material handling system comprising transfer modules, load locks, buffers and conveyors; it maintains vacuum and nitrogen environments while transporting substrates between processing equipment or holding them temporarily, and is used in OLED manufacturing processes including inkjet printing and thin-film encapsulation (TFE). Gen 8.6 OLED production uses glass substrates approximately 2.25 times larger than those used in Gen 6 production. Naintech is expanding its display equipment business alongside its secondary battery equipment operations to diversify revenue; it targets 35 billion won in display equipment revenue this year, and of its 300 billion won equipment business revenue target for 2028, about 45 billion won is expected to come from display equipment. The company plans to expand sales by participating in Chinese OLED projects and discussing additional supply agreements with customers.
