Kateeva introduced its YIELDjet FLEX, a high-performance mass-production solution for flexible organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).

OLED is the only technology that can enable the ultra-light, paper-thin displays that make bendable electronic gadgets possible. And with key proprietary innovations, the YIELDjet FLEX is the only customer-proven technology of its kind that can enable cost-effective manufacturing of flexible OLED displays in high volume.

“Flexible OLED panels will give shape to amazing consumer experiences,” said Dr. Conor Madigan, Kateeva president and co-founder. “For example, pocket-sized tri-fold smart phones that unfurl to triple the screen size for immersive viewing; curved and flexible smart watches that are richly functional and comfortable to wear; and vehicles featuring paper-thin, surface-conforming displays that enhance aesthetics and improve usability. We’re excited to give display manufacturers new horsepower to cost-effectively mass produce flexible OLED panels that make such imaginative products possible.”

The YIELDjet FLEX tool was developed to enable Thin Film Encapsulation (TFE), which is the process that gives thinness and flexibility to the OLED device. It is the first product to emerge from Kateeva’s YIELDjet platform, a precision deposition technology platform that uses innovative inkjet printing to cost- effectively deposit coatings on complex applications in volume-manufacturing environments.
