lg tft lcd made in china
LG.Philips LCD began production of seventh-generation TFT LCDs (thin-film transistor liquid crystal displays) at its facility in Paju (Korea) at the beginning of 2006. The ramp up was over six months earlier than previously planned, prompted by increasing demand for LCD TVs and PCs. The expansion made it the world’s largest LCD production facility. Philips made a pilot production run at the end of November 2005, and has started production of 42in panels from its 1,950mm x 2,250mm glass substrates.
The company is investing $10 billion and expects annual sales close to $3 billion, more than 90% of which will be from exports. The 1,650,000m² complex takes the LG.Philips LCD industrial cluster to 3,300,000m², housing next-generation LCD production and R&D facilities. Preparatory work was completed by March 2004.
The fab is located in Paju, Kyonggi Province, north of Seoul. LG.Philips LCD and the Kyonggi provincial government has provided infrastructure including industrial water systems, electricity utilities and roads. The investment has created around 5,000 new jobs.
TFT LCDs have three layers. A glass plate substrate with TFT transistors is at the bottom, a glass plate colour filter on top and the liquid crystal is injected between the two. Although LCDs are fluid, they show long-range order like solids. The molecules are roughly bar shaped but with anisotropic values of reflective index, dielectric constant, conductivity and viscosity: all have different values along different axes.
The transistors apply voltages to the liquid crystals to control the vibration direction of polarized light passing through them. This affects the light permeability of the individual LCD pixels to form images.
TFT-LCD screens are flatter and lighter than CRTs, consume less power and generate lower electromagnetic emissions. Besides going into TV sets for the home, TFT LCDs will be used in monitors for mini notebook PCs and hand-held computers, medical equipment, car navigation and entertainment systems and avionics instrumentation.
Philips has been improving the technical limitations of TFT-LCDs, particularly angle, brightness response time. The company now has 20.1in UXGA, 23in WUXGA and 30in WQXGA+ TFT-LCD panels for large-scale, wide monitor-specific TFT-LCDs for desktop monitors.
LG.Philips LCD is a 50:50 joint venture between LG Electronics and Philips Electronics. The company produces TFT-LCDs for notebook PCs, desktop monitors, LCD TVs and special applications including car navigation systems, avionics, miniature notebook PCs, hand-held PCs and medical diagnostic machines. Higher value 18in-and-above screens make up more than 20% of LG.Philips LCD’s total TV LCD production.
The company has also invested a total of 3.3 trillion won (just under $2 billion) to build a new sixth-generation TFT-LCD plant in Gumi, south of Seoul. In addition to its Korean facilities, where the core panels are made, LG.Philips LCD has expanded its Nanjing, China, fifth-generation module plant, where it has produced more than one million TFT-LCDs for desktop monitors (module yield is more than 99%). In Nanjing, panels are equipped with other components before being sold to monitor and TV set manufacturers.

Seoul, Korea (Sept. 1, 2014) - LG Display, the world"s leading innovator of display technologies, announced today that it held an opening ceremony of its first overseas LCD panel fabrication plant in Guangzhou, China, expanding its presence by adding to its existing module assembly plant in the city.
With plans to mass produce 40-plus-inch large-size LCD panels for TVs in the 8.5th generation plant, LG Display will further enhance its competitiveness in China, the world"s largest LCD TV market, thereby strengthening its leading position in the global market.
The new 8.5th generation (2,200mm x 2,500mm) LCD panel plant will be operated by LG Display China (LG Display China Co., Ltd, LGDCA), a joint venture between LG Display, the Guangzhou Development District (GDD), and Skyworth, one of the leading Chinese TV manufacturers and strategic partner to LG Display. LG Display contributed 70 percent of the $4 billion investment in the plant on the 330,000㎡ site, while GDD and Skyworth contributed 20 percent and 10 percent, respectively.
"By operating our first overseas LCD panel plant in China which has now became the world"s biggest TV market, we are going to further strengthen our position in the country," said Dr. Sang Beom Han, CEO and President of LG Display, at the ceremony attended by top executives from LG group, representatives of major Chinese TV manufacturers and government officials from China and Korea. "Based on our success in China, LG Display will continue to lead the global display market," he added.
The LG Display China facility will mainly focus on producing 42-inch, 49-inch and 55-inch Ultra HD and Full HD panels, aiming to advance its leadership in the Chinese premium TV market. The company will produce 60,000 sheets per month based on input glass sheets in the initial stage of operation and achieve full capacity of 120,000 sheets per month by the end of 2016.
The Guangzhou panel plant will enable LG Display to solidify its competitiveness in China as well as the global market by saving costs, improving on-time local delivery, and providing fast technical support to Chinese customers.
LG Display is confident that the Guangzhou plant will improve production efficiency. The company believes that maximizing production efficiency, combined with differentiated strategies such as making high-end, high value-added products and developing niche markets, will maintain its global leadership. The company is expecting improved cost advantages in terms of logistics and lower tariffs by locating in Guangzhou, close to major Chinese TV makers, including Skyworth, Konka, and TCL, operating in Guangdong Province.
In being recognized as China"s first "Green Plant," the new LG Display facility had to pass China"s Certification System as well as seven international certifications, including Environmental Management (ISO14001) and Safety and Health Management (OHSAS18001). This reflects LG Display"s commitment to creating an environmental-friendly production strategy, which was highlighted by applying the international standard system from the initial stage of the Guangzhou panel plant"s construction.

(Yicai Global) Nov. 28 -- Chinese LCD panel maker BOE Technology Group Co. [SHE:000725] bested its South Korean rival LG Display Co. [KRX:034220;NYSE:LPL] to hold the biggest share of the large-sized panel market in the third quarter of this year.
Earlier this spring, LG CEO (CEO) Han Xiangfan smashed an LCD (liquid crystal display) in front of 1000 employees. From that moment on, LG has made up its mind that it can"t keep the LCD to bring to LG. Now, it is time to reform!
According to a report by Reuters on September 13, LG Display is currently in a difficult position. Just a year ago, LG also took the lead in TV and smartphones with this LCD display. However, in 2018, LG clearly underestimated the market situation. In the face of Chinese competitors" pursuit, the LCD panel price dropped sharply in early 2018. LG changed from last year"s profitability to this year"s serious loss. This makes LG start. Not expected.
LG"s revenue is mainly created by LCD monitors. Before the iPhone X, Apple"s iPhone has always been an LCD screen, which means that Apple has been a big customer of LG"s LCD panel, but with Apple"s launch of OLED iPhone. In addition, the "blocking" of China"s BOE LCD panel suppliers has caused LG to lose the name of the number one supplier of LCD displays over 9 inches. According to IHS Markit, as of January 2017, BOE LCD monitor shipments accounted for 22.3% of total LCD shipments, surpassing 21.6% of LG displays. This is the first time that Chinese display manufacturers have won the first place.Although LG ate a big loss in front of the LCD, but LG also began to realize the crisis, began to develop OLED (organic light-emitting diode), OLED display does not require backlight, can present more natural colors, less power, can Folding, the screen of the iPhone X is the folded OLED screen, but the OLED screen is too expensive, which is also recognized.
According to reports, LG currently puts all its prices on OLEDs. LG said the company can raise $17.6 billion in the next three years to invest in OLED business. In addition, LG is optimistic about the prospects of OLED. LG predicts that by 2020, the revenue generated by OLED will reach 40%.
At present, LG can"t find a better way out than OLED. An LG executive also said: "OLED is the answer and solution to our crisis, so in addition to tightening the belt and pushing the OLED. Besides, there is no other way."

1.1 3AMH080XP10G-X0 is a color active matrix thin film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) that uses amorphous silicon TFT as a switching device. This TFT LCD has a 8.0 (10:16) inch diagonally measured active display area with WXGA (800 horizontal by 1280 vertical pixel) resolution.
Latest research from Omdia has found that Chinese display maker BOE has led the market in shipments of large area TFT LCD displays in December 2021, both in units and total area shipped. This accounts for nearly one-third of whole unit shipments, as the industry set new records for shipments for the month and year.
Pandemic restrictions impacted demand for and spending across home entertainment products with display shipments of TV and IT devices experiencing a growth surge. The total of large area TFT display shipments rose to a record 89.4 million square meters in December, reflecting a 4 percent month-on-month increase over November, as well as 5 percent Year on Year growth (YoY), Omdia reported in its latest Large Area Display Market Tracker.
For the full year, large area TFT LCD shipments increased with 9 percent YoY by units and 4 percent YoY by area, reaching 962.7 million units and 228.8 million square meters shipped in 2021, both historical highs and marking the first time the industry has ever shipped more than 900 million units in a year.
Among display makers, China"s BOE took the largest shares for both units and total area shipped in 2021. BOE took 31.5 percent for units shipped and 26.2 percent for area shipped, marking the first time one maker has captured over 31 percent market share for whole unit shipments and 26 percent share for whole area shipments in large area TFT LCD history.
Beyond BOE, Innolux took 15.4 percent market share for large area TFT LCD unit shipments, followed by LG Display with 13.4 percent in 2021. For total area shipped, China Star took 15.8 percent as second largest maker after BOE, followed by LG Display in third with 11.9 percent in 2021.
Strong demand particularly for mobile PC LCD during the pandemic increased notebook PC LCD unit shipments in 2021, rising 26 percent YoY. Tablet PC LCD unit shipments also rose 7 percent YoY last year. On the other hand, the LCD TV display segment saw unit shipments fall 4 percent YoY due to a slowdown in demand in 3Q21. But ongoing LCD TV size migration in favor of larger screens meant that total LCD TV display area shipped increased 2 percent YoY in 2021 despite the drop in unit shipments.
Large area TFT LCD revenue increased 34 percent YoY in 2021 and reached US$85.2 billion, also setting a record and the first time large area TFT LCD revenue has ever exceeded $80 billion. Strong demand and size migration to larger screens during COVID-19 pandemic combined with display price hikes up until 3Q21 to drive the high revenue number.
YoonSung Chung, senior research manager for large area displays and supply chain at Omdia, commented: "Display makers waited for results from Black Friday sales to set their early 2022 sales and pricing strategies. However, results seem to fall short of expectations for LCD TVs. LCD TV display buyers will price LCD TV displays more aggressively in the coming months.
"While demand for IT displays is weakening, panel makers’ supply plans are ambitious. Unless panel makers adjust their fab utilisation, price erosions could imminently worsen for large area display applications, including monitor and notebook PC LCDs. Omdia expects the LCD TV panel prices to reach the price bottom in 1H 2022 and then gradually rebound based on the market demand recovery."
SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics"display unit and LG Display Co Ltdare expected to stop supplying panels for premium smartphones to Huawei Technologies [HWT.UL] due to U.S. restrictions, South Korean online media Chosun Biz reported on Wednesday.

While the technological gap between Korean companies and Chinese companies is expected to narrow soon, Baik said LG is increasingly focused on offering a more tailored user experience for its customers."Our strategy is to offer consumers a much-improved user experience than that of Chinese TV makers. I think the competition in the difference in hardware is already over. There"s no choice but to make a difference in what kind of experience consumers can have when they turn their TVs on," Baik said.To that end, LG unveiled two new OLED TVs ― the LG OLED Flex, a 42-inch bendable OLED TV specialized for gaming and the 97-inch LG OLED evo Gallery Edition ― at the IFA tech fair."We unveiled two new OLED TVs at this year"s fair. Now our OLED TV lineup covers a wider range of sizes from a 42-inch to a 97-inch model. The 97-inch one is three times larger than the 55-inch one, which is able to offer a more immersive experience to consumers," he said.For the Flex bendable TV, Baik said the company completed the product in cooperation with game experts."We began planning the product at the end of 2020. From the early planning stage, we invited game experts in Korea and Europe and tried to reflect their feedback as much as possible. For example, they recommended us to make a bendable TV because they prefer to play games with a curved monitor and watch videos with a flat screen," Baik said.Predicting future trends in the TV industry, Baik said that attempts to blur the boundary between TVs and smartphones will be made in the near future."Consumers not only enjoy watching TV at home but also use smartphones a lot. I estimate it is getting important for TV makers to come out with an effort to blur the boundary between them," he said.
