GT Advanced Technologies GTAT today announced an exclusive
distribution agreement with Intego GmbH allowing GT to market and sell
Intego's automated sapphire inspection tools including the Intego SIRIUS slab
and brick inspection tool and a sapphire cover inspection tool currently in
development. The new inspection tools are expected to increase the amount of
yielded material from sapphire boules and improve the throughput of material
during the inspection process thereby lowering the cost for growing and
fabricating sapphire for a variety of applications.
In addition, the inspection tools allow full material tracking by linking
inspection data with slab and brick layout to downstream computer numerical
control (CNC) machine tools. The tools are expected to benefit today's LED
manufacturing industry and also help enable high volume, cost-sensitive
applications such as cover screen material for mobile and touch screen
devices. Terms of the agreement have not been released.
