Basler Garners Major Order from the Flat Screen Industry
Ahrensburg, 12. June 2001 – Basler AG – the worldwide leader in vision
technology – the technology of artificial vision – today won a major order for
inspection systems worth million euros from a well-known manufacturer in the
flat screen industry. The order is yet another milestone for the Display
Inspection business division on its path to greater growth.
The manufacturing company, which does not wish to be named here due to the
sensitive technology involved, placed an order for systems for the inspection of
what are called color-filter substrates, a base product for making flat
screens, to support production. In addition to the inspection of glass
substrates, Basler’s Display Inspection division has now succeeded in providing
its systems to cover yet another step in production. The strategic goal is to
provide inspection systems for the entire process chain within the field of
display manufacturing. Display Inspection is one of Basler AG’s three growth
segments, which have already generated 50% of first-quarter sales. More and
bigger sales increases are expected in the future.
