YAVNE, Israel, May 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ORBOTECH LTD.
(NASDAQ: ORBK) announced today that Forewin FPC Co Ltd.
("Forewin"), a large Chinese Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC)
manufacturer has for a second time, selected Orbotech's production
solutions for its high-end fine-line flex applications.
Forewin's Suzhou-based printed circuit board shop was looking
for premium technology that would offer very high throughput and
maximum yields, while ensuring optimal environmental
protection.
Forewin selected Orbotech's Paragon-Xpress™ 9 Laser Direct
Imaging (LDI) system, which is designed for high-speed throughput
of up to 5,000 panels per day per line. With the ability to
achieve a depth-of-focus and significantly improved yields, the
Paragon-Xpress™ 9 enjoys a reputation as one of the most stable
solutions on the market.
"We primarily chose Orbotech's LDI system for our fine-line FPC
applications to better serve our customer base; however, we also
considered which solution would minimize the overall environmental
impact of our operations. We look forward to establishing a
long-term co-operative relationship with Orbotech as we continue to
secure our positioning as a global leader in the Flex industry,"
explained Mr. Paul Hsu, General
Manager at Forewin.
Forewin, which specializes in the most advanced Flex
applications, was established in 2010. In the third quarter
of 2014 it made its first Orbotech product purchase and has now
made a follow-up order. "We are very pleased that Forewin has
chosen Orbotech's Paragon-Xpress laser-direct imaging system for
its latest Flex applications", said Gaby
Waisman, President of Orbotech Pacific Ltd. "Our
field-proven systems are aimed at increasing customers' yield rate,
lowering their costs and enhancing overall product quality."
