KEY FEATURES OF TLC GEN-3 AND GEN-5 EQUIPMENT 

 Rectilinear, Multilinear, Circular, Curvilinear, Free-form Thin Flat Technical Glass/Substrate Cutting

  • Single sheet
  • Laminate (LCD/FPD)
  • X-Y (uni- or bi-directional)
  • Cut through Nitto® tape or other protective polymer membrane during scribe
  • Cleanroom compatible

Clustering/Nesting Software for Maximum Substrate Utilization

  • Irregular shapes on same substrate
  • Unrestricted layout
  • Not constrained to single shapes, columns or rows
  • Cost-effective substrate real estate utilization

Stationary Stage

  • Non-rotating to maintain overall flatness over a long period of use
  • Fewer moving parts required

Unobstructed Load/Unload Surface

  • Easy in-line incorporation
  • Robot interface available

Rotating Cutting Head w/ Incorporated CCD camera

  • Quick, repeatable target setting
  • On-stage Measurement/Inspection
