Samsung LED this month put into operation in order to ensure the production capacity of

Samsung Electronics and Samsung motor (Semco) joint venture Samsung LED, is expected to set up a new company to operate this month. Samsung LED TV to ensure that the attacking force, the establishment of adequate capacity, in one fell swoop Samsung LED, the production target of MOCVD epitaxy equipment within three years reached 200, the scale of production capacity may go beyond the crystal electric.

Samsung announced the establishment of the Samsung LED in mid February, after more than a month of preparation, the new company is expected to set up operations this month. According to understand, Samsung LED currently has about 70 MOCVD, the industry is estimated this year to early next year, Samsung LED Lan Guangyue capacity has a chance of up to 1 billion 500 million.

The next three years, Samsung LED production capacity will be expanded to the size of 200 MOCVD. And the industry has pointed out that the rumors, Samsung LED into 6 inches epitaxial film, if the smooth production, will help improve production efficiency and reduce costs.

Crystal chairman Li Bingjie said, LED industry generally uses 2 inches epitaxial technology, red value of four yuan of LED epitaxial technology, while the blue light is just entering the 4 inches, the technology is not mature in 6 inches. Li Bingjie pointed out that the larger the size of the wafer wafer, the higher the fragmentation rate, yield to be broken, so now it seems that 6 inches and 4 inches short time cost difference is not large.

Li Bingjie pointed out that the crystal has a run 5 inches epitaxial production line, not far from the distance of 6 inches, but basically, the crystal will not be a pioneer, will first look at the Samsung LED in the development of the level of 6 inches.

Samsung LED was originally subordinate to a department under the Semco, however, Samsung actively develop LED TV, in order to ensure supply, independent of the split Samsung LED, Samsung's positive LED career.

Samsung LED target to see 200 epitaxial devices, then the scale will be more than crystal tv. Li Bingjie believes that Samsung LED on the impact of this year's crystal is limited, but in the long term, as long as the future of the TV market up, even if the Samsung LED epitaxial equipment expanded to 200 units, production capacity is not enough.

Crystal electric hand there are 7 billion yuan in cash, if the third quarter LED TV good market acceptance, EPISTAR will be the fastest in July decided to expand production or not, but even if the expansion, production time to next, not on this year's production scale to help. In fact, the day before the crystal electric announced $20 billion financing plan, also for the production scale of opportunities in the future to compete with Samsung LED, leaving room in advance.
