According to reports on January 30, Samsung Display may adopt a new method to make the frame of foldable OLED panels this year to reduce costs and pave the way for price reductions for foldable mobile phones.
Sources revealed that Samsung Display is considering using inkjet printing technology to make the borders of new panels that will be used in Samsung’s folding phones to be released later this year. It is noted that Samsung Display has previously used supplier Segyung Hitech’s micro-dry process (MDD) to make the frame of foldable OLED panels. MDD technology requires a film with ink to be pre-made and then cut into the desired frame shape. Compared to MDD technology, the film length of inkjet printing is much longer, which means that more frames can be cut from the same piece of film, thus reducing costs. This will directly help Samsung reduce the production cost of foldable mobile phones, thereby bringing more affordable prices to consumers. Samsung has long been asking Samsung Display to reduce the manufacturing cost of foldable OLED panels. The frame of the OLED panel is mainly used to hide the internal circuits and components. After the panel is encapsulated with a film to isolate oxygen and water, the frame is pasted. Finally, ultra-thin glass is laminated on the panel to complete the entire production process.The above is the detailed content of It is reported that Samsung will use new technologies to reduce the cost of folding screens and help reduce the price of foldable mobile phones..
