——Interview with Peng Xinhan, General Manager of New Display Industry Center of Hymson Group.
From December 12th to 14th, the final of the 12th China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition 2023 New Display Industry Technology Innovation Professional Competition was held in Foshan. There are more than 430 groups of projects from 24 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country, and finally 70 projects are among the finals in Foshan, and they will be awarded here. As a leading provider of integrated laser and automation solutions in the industry, and also a representative of the supporting unit of this event, Peng Xinhan, general manager of the new display industry center of Hymson Group, was interviewed.
Aiming at the high-end market of new displays, we will deeply cultivate the industrial segmentation track
It is understood that under the dual drive of "scene extension + technology update", different application scenarios correspond to different display technologies, and technological innovation presents a situation of "multi-point flowering". At present, the main technical routes include LCD display, evaporation OLED display, printing display, micro-LED display, laser display, etc. In terms of laser equipment in the display field, Hymson Laser Technology Group Co., Ltd. has realized the mass production of the whole machine in China and has become an industry leader.
At present, there are more than 30 backbone enterprises engaged in the industrialization of laser display in China, with shipments of more than 600,000 units. At the same time, the new direction of the next generation of display technology continues to emerge, with printed display, laser display, micron-level light-emitting diode (micro-LED) display-based next-generation display direction gradually clear, light field display, laser holographic display and other transformative display technologies will promote the development of three-dimensional display, the world is in the research and development stage before industrial application.
According to Peng Xinhan, in the tide of the new display industry, Hymson has made a forward-looking layout for the ultimate display technology (micro-LED) in the future. At the beginning of 2022, the New Display Industry Center was established, which is mainly responsible for overcoming difficulties in laser technology in the field of new displays.
According to the 2023 semi-annual report previously released by Hymson, the laser and automation equipment manufactured by Hymson New Display Industry Center is suitable for the whole process of display related applications such as small-pitch LED and Micro Mini LED chip segments, display module segments, and display integration segments in the new display industry, and the products cover key processes in the industry such as Micro Mini LED cutting, transfer, bonding, testing and repair.
In addition to launching the mini LED rework equipment last year, Hymson also launched a mass transfer equipment with laser technology in June last year, and successfully delivered the first batch of micro LED mass transfer equipment to customers in September, which means that Hymson has successfully mastered the micro LED mass transfer technology and made an important breakthrough in the field of new displays.
In this regard, Peng Xinhan said that Hymson took the lead in mastering the 50 m-level micro LED mass transfer technology as early as 2022, and the yield rate has reached 9999% of mini LED display modules mass bonding and rework solutions. "Hymson aims at the high-end display market, which is also the future market, and by combining laser with automation systems, it has reduced production costs, improved efficiency for the industry, and provided strong support for large-scale production. ”
Forward-looking technology has made multi-point breakthroughs Hymson leads the laser field
According to Peng Xinhan, in terms of laser cleaning solutions, Hymson has innovatively launched high-speed laser cleaning technology by virtue of basic research on the characteristics of different materials of batteries to solve the problems of pollution, damage and inefficiency of traditional cleaning. The unique laser software can provide high-precision control of the cleaning tank to maintain the consistency of cleaning.
In the photovoltaic field, Hymson has achieved another breakthrough in TOPCon technology and has successfully completed the shipment. This technology can improve the conversion efficiency of TOPCON cells.
Recently, Hymson has successfully obtained a patent called "ultraviolet laser resonator, laser, and laser processing device". In addition to patents in the field of ultraviolet laser technology, Hymson has recently made other R&D achievements that are also remarkable.
Its self-developed automatic junction box laser welding equipment adopts the industry's new laser process for welding, and the welding yield is 9985%, the energy consumption is as low as 2kw h, which has significant advantages in welding yield, welding energy consumption, stability and other dimensionsThe automatic TOPCON laser doping equipment not only improves the doping efficiency, but also realizes fully automatic operation, which greatly improves the production efficiency and helps customers reduce costs and increase efficiencyThe application of LAS laser-assisted rapid sintering technology can optimize the grid electrode, improve the contact resistance, and achieve the output of high-efficiency solar photovoltaic cells.
In addition, Hymson also has solid technical accumulation and leading R&D strength in perovskite laser scribing technology.
Peng Xinhan said, "Hymson has invested 3 percent in R&D in the first three quarters of 2023 alone5.2 billion, a year-on-year increase of 2828%。At present, the company has mastered a number of core technologies related to laser optics and automation, and will adhere to the ability to repeatedly refine technological innovation capabilities to match market demand in the future. ”。
High investment pays off. Hymson has established in-depth technical cooperation with many industry leaders such as CATL, China Innovation Airlines, Honeycomb, EVE Lithium Energy, Apple, Huawei, ZTE, etc., which relies on the accumulation of technology and the creation of value at the customer level.
Behind these R&D achievements is the support of the "technology first" concept that Hymson has always adhered to. The investment in scientific research and innovation has not only laid a solid foundation for Hymson itself's own sustainable development, but also contributed an important force to the progress in the field of laser technology.
Peng Xinhan said that Hymson has gained a lot as a supporter of the China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition for two consecutive years. The first is to improve the popularity of Hymson;The second is to enhance the reputation of Hymson;The third is to enhance the user loyalty of Hymson;Fourth, it has achieved gratifying results in the financial year of Hymson;Fifth, it has a very obvious talent agglomeration effect. Therefore, Hymson is more confident in supporting the competition again this year. I am convinced that Hymson will seize the opportunity of the competition this year and will definitely achieve more fruitful results.
In general, the new display industry technology innovation competition has become an important carrier for leading cutting-edge technology, integrated development and continuous innovation in the field of new display industry, and has become a beautiful landscape in the development of Guangdong's new display industry. With the advancement of the competition, Hymson has also unveiled its R&D achievements in laser display and other fields, which is expected to further set an industry benchmark in the field of laser display and trigger a wave of scientific research and innovation.
