Japan Machine Tool Co., Ltd. has mastered the patented epitaxial grain technology of UV-LED upstream and has a factory in Japan with an annual production capacity of 1.5 million. At this stage, the two sides will use the current strategy to digest 1.5 million epitaxial grains. Therefore, a consensus is reached that it will be downstream. Application product development, designed for a variety of products for water sterilization, air sterilization two major items.

If one product uses an average of 1 to 3 epitaxial crystals, it is equivalent to producing and selling 500,000 application products a year to digest the existing production capacity of Japanese factories.
