Taiwan-based HannStar Display expects to invest nearly NT$100 billion on its new sixth-generation (6G) TFT LCD production line, in-house color filter (CF) line and LCD module (LCM) plants, according to the company.

It will start building the new 6G line, with a maximum monthly capacity of processing 90,000 1,500×1,850mm substrates, in May or June and expects to begin volume production at the line in the spring of 2005, mainly producing 32- and 37-inch LCD TV panels.

In December, the Chinese-language Economic Daily News reported that the line would begin operations in the fourth quarter of 2005.

HannStar also expects to raise the designed monthly capacity of its in-house CF line to 60,000 units, up from the originally planned 30,000 units.

The Economic Daily News reported that HannStar would dedicate its two existing 3G lines to PC-use panels, its 5G line to both PC and LCD TV-use panels, and its 7G line to 40-inch and above LCD TV-use panels.
