A key player in the PCB&semiconductor equipment industry, Neontech (306620.KQ), is making waves in the glass substrate market, an emerging sector for next-generation semiconductor packaging and high-performance computing (HPC). Glass substrates are poised to replace traditional plastic substrates, offering superior electrical properties and high circuit density that can significantly enhance semiconductor packaging performance. This makes them especially useful in advanced applications like AI accelerators and high-frequency systems. Neontech is well-positioned to lead in this field, having already developed 13 core technologies related to the processing of glass substrates.

Notably, Neontech has developed a world-first double-sided cleaning saw-and-sorter equipment for FC-BGA semiconductor packages and has pioneered precision processing methods using semiconductor wafer sawing devices. Their technology includes advanced singulation solutions tailored for glass substrates, which address the challenges of brittle and fragile materials prone to cracking during processing.

The company's decision to enter the glass substrate market follows the growing importance of high-performance semiconductor packaging, particularly in AI-driven markets. With the rise of AI accelerators and the expanding need for efficient and robust packaging solutions, Neontech's cutting-edge technology is becoming an essential competitive advantage in the semiconductor industry.

In addition to its existing expertise in wafer and glass precision processing, laser technology, and breaker equipment, Neontech has also developed new process equipment for glass interposer manufacturing. This new technology allows for finer patterning and superior high-frequency performance compared to traditional PCBs, giving Neontech a clear edge in the glass substrate market. The company is already in discussions with major domestic and international semiconductor packaging firms, aiming to secure concrete achievements by the end of the year.

Neontech's expertise in precision cutting and processing large glass substrates into smaller, stable components plays a crucial role in providing reliable solutions for the industry. The company is also pushing forward with the development of new equipment that integrates high-precision cutting, fine pattern processing, and automation solutions.

A spokesperson for Neontech stated, "Leveraging our proven expertise in semiconductor packaging, we are confident that we will establish differentiated competitiveness in the glass substrate market. This expansion will strengthen our position in the global semiconductor packaging and display industries and contribute to the advancement of next-generation semiconductor and AI packaging technologies."

With 13 essential technologies in hand, Neontech is positioned to lead the glass substrate sector, further solidifying its place as a critical player in the semiconductor industry's future.
