YAVNE, Israel -- (Business Wire)

ORBOTECH LTD. (NASDAQ/GSM SYMBOL: ORBK) today announced the introduction of its new Paragon™-Xpress 9 Laser Direct Imaging (LDI) system.

Designed for high speed throughput of up to 5,000 panels per day per in-line solution, the Paragon-Xpress 9 is a breakthrough LDI system for mass production, digital imaging of High Density Interconnects (HDI), Flex and Rigid-Flex applications. Featuring the same Large Scan Optics (LSO) Technology™ as Orbotech’s well-established Paragon LDI family, the automated Paragon-Xpress 9 is now able to offer higher imaging accuracy and improved yields and productivity on the most advanced volume jobs - faster and more cost-effectively than was previously possible.

Commenting on the Paragon-Xpress 9 introduction, Mr. Hanan Gino, President of the PCB Division at Orbotech Ltd., said: “Our latest technological advancements in Paragon-Xpress 9 focus on boosting Paragon LDI performance to meet high volume and speed requirements. The system has already been field-proven in rigorous mass production environments with excellent results. Being able to achieve these throughput levels without having to compromise on quality represents a crucial milestone in the progress of modern PCB digital imaging and has opened the door to the widespread utilization of LDI for HDI mass production.”
