Technology and automated equipment for the production of protective sapphire screens for portable mobile devices

Currently, the major manufacturers of mobile communication devices (smartphones, tablets) started to use sapphire as a protective material for a screen. Strength and high hardness of sapphire significantly improve consumer quality of smartphones, and is just necessary for devices required for a special purpose. The mass use and substitution of traditional chemically toughened glass with sapphire so far limited due to its high cost of production and mechanical processing. EZAN develops and delivers high-performance industrial equipment and technology for production of shaped sapphire crystals. The equipment and technology has advantages it terms of cost and productivity over the well-established techniques used for commercial production of protective screens for mobile devises.
