Sharp Begins Giant LCD Plant Construction
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "ARTICLE" @ 10:00 PM
"Sharp has started construction of a factory that will be capable of handling the largest-ever sheets of glass used to make LCD (liquid crystal display) panels, the company has announced. The new factory will enable Sharp to make LCD panels 52 inches across diagonally for about the same price as plasma panels that are 50 inches across, he said. The plant will start production at 15,000 sheets per month in October 2006. Production will double to 30,000 sheets each month in 2007 after completion of a second line, the company said."
