HB Solution signs QD inkjet supply deal with Samsung Display

What They Say

The Elec reports that HB Solution has done a deal to supply Samsung Display with inkjet equipment for depositing the QD layer in SDC’s QD OLEDs. The equipment will be installed this month. The units are based on Kateeva hardware with software from HB, according to the report, and based around a print head from Konica Minolta.

Up to now, the equipment used has been from Semes which initially under-performed, according to the report.

What We Think

This has been quite a saga. 

In digging around, I spotted that Kateeva has appointed a new CEO, Bin Liu, previously with Corning as GM of Gorilla Glass, China. Previous CEO, May Su, is retiring after four years at Kateeva.  (BR)
