Mycronic Receives Order for an SLX Mask Writer
April 11, 2024 | MycronicEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Mycronic AB has received an order for an SLX mask writer from a new customer in Asia. The order value is in the range of USD 7-9 million. Delivery of the system is planned for the second quarter of 2025.
The SLX laser mask writer meets rising demand for photomasks for the semiconductor industry and a future need for replacement and modernization. Photomasks manufactured by laser mask writers are of high importance and account for a majority of all photomasks produced for semiconductor manufacturing. SLX is a modern and energy efficient mask writer based on the same technology as Mycronic’s mask writers for displays.
“We have now surpassed 50 orders since we launched the SLX at the end of 2019. This success has been driven by orders from new customers, as in this case, as well as repeat orders from semiconductor photomask producers globally”, says Charlott Samuelsson, Sr VP Pattern Generators at Mycronic.
Mycronic’s Pattern Generators division provides mask writers for display manufacturing and production of semiconductors.
