Fonon Corporation, a multi-market holding company, R&D
center, equipment designer and manufacturer of advanced laser
material processing systems for subtractive and additive
manufacturing, highlights applications for its Zero Width Laser
Cutting Technology (ZWLCT) in the flat panel display (FPD)
market.
The demand for flat panel displays has been on a significant
rise and isn’t expected to hit the ceiling any time soon. Media and
entertainment, consumer electronics, advertising, transportation,
medical and industrial equipment – it’s hard to pinpoint a market
without FPD applications. The global FPD market size was valued at
$149.5 billion in 2023 and is estimated to reach $217.7 billion by
2033, according to Future Market Insights, at a compound annual
growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% during the decade. At the same time,
FPDs are steadily getting thinner and lighter, providing better
linearity and becoming increasingly capable of higher resolutions
in addition to being more power efficient.
Fonon is well-positioned to benefit from this market as its
patented ZWLCT is an innovative, next-generation solution ideally
suited to the intricacy of cutting brittle materials like glass for
FPDs with no material loss and a clean edge. Whereas standard
cutting methods involve melting and vaporizing a portion of the
material to achieve a cut, zero width laser cutting separates the
material via a controlled heating and cooling of the cut line. This
means that no material is wasted, while the edges are strong and
chip-free, requiring no post-processing like polishing.
Fonon’s industrial-grade systems integrating ZWLCT drive
material processing techniques in FPD manufacturing to new levels,
demonstrating revolutionary advancements in laser material
processing over existing technologies. These advancements translate
into numerous cost and performance benefits in flat panel
separation.
ZWLCT can help manufacturers meet explosive growth and demand in
flat panel markets around the world. The equipment is a complete
system designed and built utilizing cutting-edge technology and
patented methods at competitive prices. It is especially suited to
providing the precision critical for FPD in phones and tablets,
computer screens, industrial-use monitors, billboards and control
systems, among others.
Fonon’s ZWLCT achieves intricate cutting with utmost accuracy,
helping manufacturers produce the smallest and most complex
components. This remarkably efficient technology finds use across a
wide range of industries where glass and quartz components are
manufactured in accordance with strict quality control measures and
rigorous regulatory standards. For more information about Fonon’s
