DA Tech Secures 11.8 Billion Won Order for Secondary Battery Laser Patterning Equipment

Supply Contract Signed for Laser Application Equipment in Assembly Process
"Full-Scale Overseas Export Begins"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] D.A. Technology announced on the 8th that it has signed a supply contract worth 11.848 billion KRW for laser application equipment for assembly processes with a U.S.-based secondary battery manufacturing company.

The laser patterning process ordered this time is highly complex and involves difficult material handling. D.A. Technology conducted multiple tests tailored to the customer's desired software configuration, equipment performance, and vision inspection specifications, and based on the resulting technical and relational trust, this contract was finalized.

A company representative stated, "Special precision processing is required for the production of high-end secondary batteries," adding, "There are limitations to precision processing with conventional mechanical punching methods, so more flexible laser processing technology is necessary."

In July, D.A. Technology was selected as the lead research and development institution for the national project ‘Development of High-Efficiency Laser Patterning Equipment for Secondary Battery Cathode Materials’ by the Small and Medium Business Technology Information Promotion Agency. The company is focusing on flexible laser processing technology capable of handling complex patterned batteries that overcome the limitations of mechanical punching methods.

The company is securing laser processing-based technology to develop laser patterning equipment, enhancing secondary battery manufacturing process capabilities, and plans to pursue additional exports based on this foundation.

A D.A. Technology representative said, “We have production capabilities for most secondary battery equipment such as stacking, folding, and notching, and have also succeeded in developing wide-cell stacking and high-speed laser notching,” adding, “This order is a very encouraging result of long-term close cooperation with the customer based on our independent technology in laser application equipment.”

He continued, “Discussions are underway for supplying additional development equipment in the near future, and we are preparing for stable supply by securing development personnel and procuring key components,” and stated, “We will expand orders with domestic and international global companies and grow together in step with the expansion of the secondary battery market.”
