Major order from semiconductor industry
Multiyear framework agreement for Jenoptik semiconductor equipment in the upper double-digit million euro range.
The Jenoptik photonics group concluded a framework agreement with a global technology group at the end of 2022 with a total volume in the upper double-digit million euro range and a term of three years. The contract covers the manufacture of complex micro-optical components used in semiconductor production facilities. Jenoptik has long been positioned as a reliable and competent development and systems partner in the global semiconductor equipment market.
Executive board member and head of Jenoptik’s advanced photonic solutions division, Dr Ralf Kuschnereit: “We are delighted that we were able to conclude the past year with such an important framework agreement. This underlines the high level of confidence of our long-standing customer and partner in our leading expertise in optical and photonic solutions in the field of semiconductor equipment.”
Jenoptik has been experiencing increasing demand for optical components and systems for the semiconductor equipment industry for some time. Against this backdrop, in 2022 the group began to significantly expand its manufacturing capacities in Dresden with the construction of a new high-tech factory. In future, micro-optical products will be manufactured here, which will mainly be used in systems for semiconductor lithography.
