Kateeva's Korea VP: SDC to start printing OLED TVs in 2018

OLED Ink-Jet developer Kateeva presented at an industry conference in Korea, and the company's Korean branch VP states that the company will supply OLED TV deposition system prototypes later this year to customers in Korea, China and Japan.

Even more interesting is his statement that commercial mass production printers will be deployed in Samsung Display's OLED production lines in two years. Usually Kateeva refrains from discussing customers like that. This will enable Samsung to produce OLED TVs cost effectively - and compete with LG Display on this market.



The report from Korea states that "some market experts" are expecting SDC to re-enter the OLED TV market as early as in 2017, perhaps indeed by using Kateeva's production equipment (although, truthfully, Kateeva says that the equipment will be installed in 2018).
