INOMETRY Begins Supplying Glass Substrate(TGV) Inspection Equipment... Additional Contracts Expected by Year-End

 INOMETRY Co., Ltd. (CEO: Gab-Soo Lee), a company specializing in X-ray (CT) inspection solutions, announced on the 14th that it has successfully signed equipment supply contracts with two companies in the glass substrate Through Glass Via (TGV) sector, marking the official launch of its new business line.

 The company stated, “Although we cannot disclose detailed information, we have signed separate contracts to supply a CT inspection system to a glass processing company and an X-ray inspection system to a microplating specialist. Production of the equipment is already underway.” It added, “This is a meaningful milestone as it demonstrates the official recognition of INOMETRY’s technological capabilities and reliability within Korea’s glass substrate value chain. The reputation we′ve built through technology exhibitions and conferences is now translating into actual revenue.”

 Furthermore, INOMETRY shared, “In addition to these two contracts, we are currently in discussions with various companies involved in micro-hole drilling, plating, and semiconductor manufacturing related to glass substrates. We expect to secure contracts for four additional inspection systems across three companies by the end of the year.”

 TGV glass substrates are a core technology enabling miniaturization and high integration in semiconductors, high-performance packages, and next-generation mobile devices. As a future growth industry attracting significant interest from various companies, the market remains in its early stages with an incomplete supply chain and ongoing commercialization validation. However, INOMETRY is leading the non-destructive inspection segment with its ability to detect micro-defects and perform precise analysis. As a result, the company is receiving increasing collaboration requests and technical partnership inquiries from related firms.

 INOMETRY is a market-leading provider of X-ray (CT) inspection equipment for secondary batteries, supplying production lines of Korea′s top three battery manufacturers and other global cell makers. The company is now expanding into new areas such as glass substrates (TGV), smartphones, and the defense industry. In particular, its inspection solutions for glass substrates can detect micrometer-level defects such as voids, underplating, and filling issues inside TGV electrodes, which are thinner than a strand of hair.

 CEO Gab-Soo Lee commented, “Due to the lack of standardized technology in the early-stage glass substrate market, many companies are seeking to verify their process technologies through X-ray (CT) inspection. Demand is rapidly increasing.” He added, “INOMETRY will continue to expand collaboration opportunities based on technological trust and strive to turn them into tangible business results.”

 He further stated, “From Q4 onward, we expect a full-scale resumption of orders from major clients in our core secondary battery inspection business. In addition, our new ventures in semiconductors, smartphones, and the defense industry are delivering faster-than-expected results. We are confident that next year we will fully overcome the ‘chasm’ and achieve a ‘second leap forward.’”
