Mycronic AB has received an order for an SLX mask writer from an existing customer in Asia. The order value is in the range of USD 5-7 million. Delivery of the system is planned for the second quarter of 2027.
The SLX laser mask writer meets rising demand for photomasks for the semiconductor industry and a 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 are pleased that customers choose the modern SLX platform when increasing capacity to produce photomasks for the semiconductor industry, recognizing its proven performance, productivity, and reliability", says Charlott Samuelsson, Senior Vice President Pattern Generators at Mycronic.
Mycronic’s Pattern Generators division provides mask writers and metrology systems for display manufacturing and production of semiconductors.
