FREUDENSTADT, Germany, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SCHMID Group (NASDAQ: SHMD) (the “Company” or "SCHMID") announces a strong combined order intake of more than
The recent order intake reflects continued momentum across SCHMID’s InfinityLine Production Equipment, driven primarily by orders secured in China, Taiwan, and South Korea and complemented by incremental business in Europe. Together, these wins confirm sustained customer investment in high-performance electronics manufacturing and further strengthen SCHMID’s position in next-generation interconnect technologies.
The orders, secured from several customers, cover InfinityLine Production Equipment for High-Density Interconnect Multilayer (HDI-ML) and modified Semi-Additive Processing (mSAP) applications serving AI servers, high-speed networking, optical communication modules, advanced interconnect platforms, and next-generation data infrastructure. The orders demonstrate that the market pipeline for advanced PCB technologies is not only building, but converting into confirmed technology and capacity investment.
Executive Statement
“AI infrastructure is driving a step-change in advanced interconnect manufacturing. As layer counts increase and design rules become more demanding, yield performance becomes the decisive factor for profitable high-volume production. This is where SCHMID creates measurable customer value. Our equipment delivers the process stability, uptime, and manufacturing precision required to support yield performance above
Market Development
HDI-ML remains the strongest contributor to the recent order intake, with multiple investments secured primarily from customers in China, Taiwan, and South Korea, complemented by additional business in Europe. These projects are linked to capacity expansion and technology upgrades for advanced multilayer printed circuit boards used in high-performance computing, data center, high-speed networking, and communication infrastructure applications.
This regional mix supports SCHMID’s view that advanced interconnect demand remains structurally strong, led by Asia’s core electronics manufacturing ecosystem and selectively expanding in other regions. Customers are investing in higher layer counts, tighter design rules, improved signal integrity, and scalable production for next-generation electronics.
mSAP also contributed to the recent business, underlining SCHMID’s position in the transition toward finer-line PCB manufacturing. mSAP technology is increasingly relevant as the industry moves toward higher routing density, improved electrical performance, and more compact system architectures.
Combined, these orders represent a total order intake of more than
SCHMID expects continued momentum in these segments as customers move from evaluation and qualification into capacity investment. SCHMID's pipeline for HDI-ML and mSAP production equipment continues to strengthen, supported by structural growth trends in AI infrastructure, advanced networking, optical communication, and high-density electronics manufacturing.
