On March 08, 2019, China's first high-precision metal masking board (FMM) production line commissioned by SDAL Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. was officially put into production. After the completion of the third phase, the annual output value is expected to reach 2 billion yuan. Three months ago, NBHC Technology's high-precision metal masking board (FMM) production line was officially put into operation, and the annual output value will reach 3.5 billion yuan after full production. The two companies will begin mass production this year after trial production is completed and verified.
The metal mask is a consumable core component required for OLED production and has long been monopolized by Japanese and Korean companies. Mass production of metal masks (Mask) means that the core components of the OLED industry have made breakthroughs, which will change the situation in which China's OLED industry is subject to human constraints. As OLED panel companies accelerate the progress of mass production of production lines, the future demand for metal masks will also increase. According to IHS estimates, the high-precision metal mask (FMM) market will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 38% from US $ 234 million in 2017 to US $ 1.2 billion in 2022.
