Recently, the global highest generation line, BOE Gen 10.5 TFT-LCD production line, has put into production ahead of schedule in Hefei. It hasn’t been long after the mass production of China’s first BOE Chengdu Gen 6 flexible AMOLED production line, marking another new milestone in the global display industry. Not only does this mean that the year 2018 will become the first year of 8k, but it also marks China’s leading position in the global display sphere.

The Gen 10.5 line that BOE built in Hefei in 2015, is the world’s highest generation line and the first Gen 10.5 production line with a design capacity of 120,000 pieces of glass substrates a month. At its Hefei Gen 10.5 TFT-LCD production line products delivery ceremony, BOE delivered large-size, ultra-high-definition displays, such as 75-inch 8K60Hz and 120Hz displays to its clients, including Samsung, LG, Sony, Vizio, Skyworth, Konka, Hisense, Changhong, TPV, Xiaomi, Haier, etc.

Technically, the Gen 10.5 production line has exceeded any previous LCD production line in terms of the difficulty in product design and development, process technology, technical control, and so on. Its intelligence and core process technologies have all reached the highest levels of the industry, setting new standards of the highest generation line in the industry.

Ultra-high-definition displays of large sizes have become the trend in today’s industry. According to IHS predictions, 8K-panel markets in the five years to come will see a CAGR of 111%, with a 8K market penetration rate up to 25% among 60-inch and larger display panels. Global display manufacturers, with an eye for 8K broadcasting opportunities to be brought by the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyoand the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Beijing 2022 are moving towards 8K, which will spark a growth surge in the industry.

As a global leading semiconductor display manufacturer, BOE has introduced a “8425 Strategy”, which means “Promoting 8K, popularizing 4K, replacing 2K, and making good use of 5G”. With the 5G age being around the corner, BOE will not only solve the “display” issue but help to drive the development of the entire industry chain.

At the event, BOE also associated with the video network and video codec suppliers, equipment, set makers and other upstream and downstream manufacturers to jointly held the “8K Industry Roundtable Conference”, launching a discussion on 8K technology, product, application and other ecological construction, reaching related standards for8K technology and product, promoting the popularity of 8K and China’s leading player position in the global display industry.

China's first 6th-generation flexible AMOLED display screen production line, built by domestic leading screen maker BOE Technology, was put into operation in Chengdu, Sichuan province, in May, CNR reported.

AMOLED displays, physically flexible with a fast response, high contrast and wide visual angles, are increasingly gaining applications in consumer electronics such as OLED TVs, tablets, smart wearable devices and especially smartphones.

BOE's production line, with an investment of 46.5 billion yuan ($6.75 billion), applies the world's most advanced evaporation technique, the first of its kind in China.

This production line, having a designed capacity of 48,000 glass substrates (1850mm by 1500mm) per month, is expected to ship at least 90 million high-end AMOLED display screens per year and realize an annual output value exceeding 30 billion yuan.

Currently, the global AMOLED display market is nearly dominated by South Korean companies.

Samsung Electronics's share of the business has topped more than 90 percent, with a 5.5-generation AMOLED production line that can produce 8,000 substrates per month and a 6th-generation AMOLED production line having a capacity of 15,000 substrates per month.

In addition, LG Display has nearly 8 percent of the market. Most of its small to medium-sized AMOLED displays are made in its 4.5-generation production line, which has a capacity of 14,000 substrates per month.

According to consultancy company Sigmaintell, the flexible AMOLED is expected to witness exponential growth rate in 2017 and 2018 and its proportion in the AMOLED capacity will reach 65 percent by 2020, xkb.com.cn reported.

BOE'S smartphone LCD, tablet LCD and laptop LCD shipments topped the global market in this year's first quarter. Besides the production line in Chengdu, it will start building another 6th-generation AMOLED production line in Mianyang, Sichuan province, and achieve mass production by 2020.

China's State Council announced further measures to support "Made in China 2025", a plan to transform China from a manufacturing giant into a world manufacturing power, on Wednesday, according to Xinhua.

Key technologies such as high-end and smart equipment will be further developed.

Domestic screen makers such as Tianma Micro-electronics and Shenzhen China Star Optoelectronics Technology are also enhancing their presence in the OLED industry
