Updated: 7 days ago

Quick Verdict
Tenth-generation mother glass, at 2850 x 3050 mm, is the largest substrate in display manufacturing, and moving it quickly without bending or breaking it is a specialized task. Hirata's CR-J1020CL does this with a high-rigidity twin-mast design and no travelling axis, so it works from a fixed position. Hirata says hundreds of units have been produced and delivered, which speaks to maturity. The page gives no payload, stroke or speed figures.
