Technology Fund and Participatiemaatschappij Oost Nederland (East-Netherlands Holding Com- pany). SolMateS will use the investment to accelerate product development and international expansion for its unique production system.
One product, the PiezoFlare 1200 is a revolutionary manufacturing technology to produce chips with precise actuation functionality. It is an automated deposition system for PZT thin films on 6“ or 8“ wafers, based on pulsed laser deposition and offers high-yield piezo performance and flexibility for cu- stomized PZT compositions. The technology enables, for the first time, high volume reliable production capability for PZT thin film deposition.
“The international demand for a machine like the PiezoFlare 1200 is exceeding our expectations”, Sol- MateS CEO Arjen Janssens states. “We are pleased our investors share our visions and with their help we will be able to accelerate our growth and meet current and future market needs”.
