Samsung is gearing up to commence operations at its Texas chip facility in the US. The factoryβs construction has picked a pace after the Tesla order. Samsung Lee has just met Elon Musk and toured the Taylor semiconductor plant.
A new report reveals that Samsung chief Jay Y Lee and Tesla CEO Elon Musk toured the Taylor semiconductor facility on Thursday.
Chairman Lee and CEO Musk have reportedly mapped out the production lines. The heads have also discussed yield targets and potential technological collaborations during the meetup.
Additionally, Elon suggested Lee set up a dedicated workspace inside Samsungβs Taylor plant for Tesla, so the working personnel remain on site to monitor and speed up chip output.
It aligns with the details that emerged right after Samsung and Tesla signed their deals. From the start, Elon wants an insider role at Samsungβs cutting-edge semiconductor production facility.
Under the new business model being tested, the client (Tesla) participates in every stage of the process, from chip design to plant construction, production line configuration, and packaging, to speed up feedback cycles.
The year-end meeting indicates that the two companies are gearing up to expand their current partnership. In the past, Tesla awarded Samsung a huge $16.5 billion order for its AI chips to be used in various products.
The South Korean tech giant is rapidly finalizing its Taylor chip plant to initiate operations. The company has invested over $34 billion in its Texas plant to set up a massive production facility for advanced chips.
