AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing laser cutting devices face inefficiencies in cutting large substrates, particularly for displays, as they struggle to efficiently process larger sizes without increasing equipment size and installation area.

Method used

A laser cutting apparatus with a fixed stage for holding the workpiece and movable optical systems guided by a dual-drive mechanism, allowing for precise laser irradiation positioning without moving the stage, combined with a transfer system for efficient loading and unloading of workpieces.

Benefits of technology

Enables efficient cutting of large substrates like 8th generation glass and flexible displays by reducing equipment footprint and cycle time, while preventing warping and wrinkling, and allowing simultaneous laser irradiation at multiple locations.
