Lamina Ceramics Receives $12 Million in Venture Funding
Lamina Ceramics Inc (Princeton, NJ, USA) - which employs proprietary technology to bond unfired ceramic to metal for use in communications and electronic components and packaging - has obtained US$12 million in venture capital funding. The funding comes from Morgenthaler as well as from a major communications systems vendor.
Taylor Adair, Lamina's CEO, calls the company's technology "a Swiss army knife for solving the next generation electrical and mechanical design problems". Bonded ceramic on metal, he says, offers component and packaging customers a multi-faceted tool that helps them significantly reduce size, lower system costs and greatly improve performance.
Lamina expects to have a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility ready for full production in Westhampton, NJ, USA by mid-2002.
