Apple did not use the sapphire display on the IPhone6, but it did not give up, due to problems with the yield and cost of good products. The company will produce a sapphire screen for Apple for the iphone, sources said. Foxconn will produce an iphone sapphire screen for Apple (photo from macdigger.ru) Although Foxconn has no experience in producing artificial sapphires, the company is interested in the material. Over the past few years, Foxconn has been actively applying for a variety of sapphire-related patents. At present, its sapphire patent includes the LCD screen with sapphire, protective sapphire screen, sapphire culture method and laser cutting sapphire material. To meet the iphone's display demand, Apple needs 3,000 165 kg sapphire production furnaces, or 200 262 kg production furnaces. Sources say Foxconn has bought a large number of sapphire-growing furnaces to expand the sapphire supply chain. If Apple wants a sapphire screen on the next iphone, it will have to deploy a production furnace by next spring. The good news is that, in addition to Foxconn, the mesa plant from China and Arizona, State will also provide sapphire materials for Apple, while South Korea's Hansoltechnics and Aurora Optoelectronics technology company in Harbin, China, will also produce sapphire screens.
