FUJIFILM’S Advanced super Thin-layer and high- Output Metal Media

30 10/4/99 Fujifilm’s Coating Technology Creates Breakthrough Products

Fujifilm began coating motion picture and photographic film in the mid 1930’s using die coating technology. Simultaneous multi-coating technology was developed in 1960 . Also in 1960, Fujifilm produced its first products. In 1965, Fujifilm began manufacturing computer tape. Fujifilm’s floppy disks (8-inch) were introduced in 1977. Fujifilm began manufacturing dual-coated magnetic media in 1989 and Advanced super Thin-layer and high-Output Metal Media (ATOMM) dual-coated media in 1992. For ATOMM, Fujifilm’s special die coating head simultaneously applies two separate and unique layers, one magnetic and one non- magnetic. It’s a dual coating system Fujifilm invented that has allowed us to continually develop the industry’s “next generation” storage products and develop Nano Cubic Technology for future storage products with even greater capacities.31
