Company News >> South Korea LCD equipment industry wind blowing diversification into the key to success 30th,Jan,2018
                                                   Global financial tsunami triggered a downturn in the LCD industry, both in Taiwan, Japan or South Korea have reduced equipment spending in 2009, which Samsung Electronics (LGD) and LG Display (LGD) and other LCD panel makers in South Korea in 2009 LCD equipment investment both Shrinkage of more than 50%, the impact of the recent South Korean semiconductor / LCD equipment industry has blown the wind, have taken layoffs or pay cuts and other measures.
 
    Samsung Electronics LCD equipment investment in 2009 from about 4 trillion won in 2008 (about 2.76 billion US dollars) reduced by more than 50%, only 2 trillion won less than; and semiconductor equipment investment will be 7 trillion in 2008 South Korean won (about 4.84 billion U.S. dollars) is reduced by 60% and only 3 trillion won.
 
    Samsung Electronics in the LCD investment, the original 11th generation line in the world to the initial mass production in early 2010 as the goal is expected to start from the first half of 2009, but the recent substantial reduction of construction costs required for the construction of plants, and even do not rule out the delay until 2009 The second half began to start the possibility.
 
    As Samsung L8-1 phase 2 increase production, not only delayed the schedule, but also reduce the size of the L8-1 is now producing 60,000 pieces of scale, originally scheduled to increase production in the second phase of the monthly capacity will be up 30,000, and Since November 2008, it has ordered new equipment, but recently it has been delayed to invest in 2009 with a further reduction of production to 20,000.
 
    The 8th generation line currently under construction in Paju, South Korea is scheduled to be mass-produced by LGQ in the first quarter of 2009, while the 6-2 generation line now under construction in Gumi is scheduled for mass production in the second quarter of 2009. LGD equipment investment in 2009 will range from 1.5 trillion to 2 trillion won, slightly higher than the original planned 1 trillion to 1.5 trillion won, however, compared with about 4.5 trillion won in 2008, compared with the amount of equipment investment, Still more than 50% reduction.
 
    To cope with the downturn, South Korea's semiconductor / LCD equipment makers are mostly trying to reduce operating costs by means of pay cuts, layoffs or power-saving measures. For example, a South Korean semiconductor / LCD representative equipment manufacturer has implemented a pay cut above managerial level since November 15-20% measures, and if the operating conditions deteriorate in 2009, layoffs and the next wave of pay cuts will not be ruled out.
 
    However, South Korea's semiconductor / LCD equipment vendors such as ADP Engineering, PHICOM and Jusung Engineering are also aggressively developing new businesses in addition to pay cuts and layoffs to diversify their businesses in response to the investment in the semiconductor / LCD field in 2009 compared to 2008 Substantial reduction, the diversification of its current policy, mostly in the development of hydrogen and solar energy and other new energy-based business.
 
    South Korea's testing and etching equipment specialist ADP Engineering, the current semiconductor testing machines and dry etching equipment still account for about 35% and 49% of revenue, but for long-term hydrogen precision manufacturing forward, has developed a Production of high purity hydrogen core module.
 
    South Korea's semiconductor test equipment maker PHICOM is using its technology to develop solar back-end process with Laser Screen Printing equipment, South Korea has not yet manufacturers can self-made.
 
    Jusung Engineering has formally shipped solar cell equipment since early 2008 and has entered overseas markets. Currently, Jusung Engineering has achieved a revenue of more than 100 billion won in the field of solar cells and has successfully become its main business. In the third quarter of 2008, Jusung Engineering revenue was 56% for the solar cell division, 26% for the LCD division and 18% for the semiconductor division.
 
    Under the impact of the shrinking investment in the semiconductor / LCD industry in 2009, South Korean equipment makers will not only tap new jobs and pay cuts but also expand their businesses and diversify their businesses. This will also become the key to their survival one.
