Expanding into the Advanced Glass Market through a Strategic Partnership with a German Firm

Creating Synergy with World-Class Technology to Meet Growing Semiconductor Demand

Shibuya has entered into a sales partnership with "4JET," a German laser system manufacturer, to begin selling "Laser Micromachining Systems for Advanced Glass" in Japan and throughout Asia. With the increasing density of semiconductors for AI data centers, demand for cutting-edge substrates like carrier glass and interposers is surging. By fusing Shibuya's system construction expertise with 4JET’s unique "Nano-Perforation" method—which ensures smooth, chip-free cut surfaces—we are responding swiftly to rapid industry changes and significantly enhancing productivity and quality.

From Bottling to Advanced Electronic Materials: The Evolution of Shibuya Laser Technology

Our laser processing business originated from the application of laser marking technology used in the bottling sector. Today, we have expanded our reach to metals, resins, and now high-performance glass, supporting the processing of AR eyeglass lenses and complex display shapes. By adding high-speed, precision cutting technology to our existing strengths, such as quartz glass drilling, we are further strengthening our total solutions in the machine tool sector. Shibuya remains committed to pursuing a chain of technological innovations to support the growth of cutting-edge industries.
