Where will Apple get the furnaces for FOXCONN?

This is what I mean:

To give an idea, in order to meet its demand for iPhone cover screens, Apple would need around 3,000 165kg producing sapphire furnaces, or 2,000 262kg producing furnaces.

Foxconn’s involvement could help fund the necessary capital outlays, which likely total between $1-2 billion in order to refrofit existing structures in China, and also acquire the thousands of sapphire growth furnaces needed to expand Apple’s sapphire supply chain.
