4 INKJET HEAD EJECTION TECHNOLOGY BREAKDOWN Major manufacturers Inkjet head ejection technology MEMS printhead player landscape is expected to increase in the 3 coming years Continuous Thermal Drop-On-Demand Piezo MEMS projects Non-MEMS based 4

5 MEMS TECHNOLOGIES Definition & context MEMS (Microelectromechanical Systems) Definition for the report: we consider MEMS as devices that include moving parts (or fluids) in the µm to mm range and use a photolithography process for manufacturing. What is considered as MEMS devices? Definition : a MEMS printhead is a complete inkjet ejection device manufactured with following features Actuator + ink pass + nozzles plate. Printhead manufacturing using semiconductor wafer level micromachining techniques that allow serial production => multiple chips manufactured in the same time. Example of inkjet printhead: Epson PrecisionCore heads or Fujifilm Dimatix Samba head Micro-injector array Source: hong-kong University of Sciences & Technologies There are some hybrid MEMS devices that use silicon micromachining for a portion of the printhead (actuator, nozzles, ink pass). Examples : Ricoh, Panasonic, HP Scitex X2, Konica. Micro-machined printhead Source: Ricoh Inkjet printhead market and technology trends

7 MEMS INKJET PRINTHEAD SUPPLY CHAIN Who is working with whom? Several new players interested in MEMS technologies From 2015, the number of project to develop MEMS printhead in the Industrial sector is increasing: Konica Minolta, Océ-Canon group, Ricoh of XAAR are looking at MEMS technologies to access high resolution market like Textile printing, packaging & label, as well as 3D printing. Piezo MEMS development is more accessible due to piezo MEMS foundries : ST Microelectronics piezo MEMS foundry activity started in Other piezo MEMS foundries are Rohm, SSS, Silex. 7

8 MEMS PRINTHEAD MARKET IN VALUE MEMS printhead market forecast in US$M value By market segments 1000 Reaching $1B in 2021 a +2% forecasted CAGR on the 5 next years Consumer Office Large & wide format Industrial & commercial Inkjet printhead market and technology trends

9 MEMS INKJET PLAYERS MARKET SHARES Market share in 2015 We estimate a MEMS printhead market of $ 892M in 2015, shared by 10 to 15 companies. Fujifilm Dimatix 2% Funai 2% Others 3% Thermal printheads represent more than 85% of the MEMS printhead market MEMS Inkjet printhead market is mature and not so fragmented today, led by international (giant) companies. The major players addressing consumer market HP & Canon, followed by EPSON represent more than 90% of the market in value. Epson has only 8% market share despite a 14% market share in printer shipment. This is explained by the use of Epson Micro Piezo technology (first Epson technology before PrecionCore), that is not MEMS based. Canon 28% Epson 8% Total: $ 892M HP 57% Several other players are sharing the 3% remaining: Ricoh, Konica Minolta, Kodak, MEMJET Source: Yole développement Inkjet printhead market and technology trends
