The rapid rise of the automotive rigid-flex board industry

The rapid rise of the automotive rigid-flex board industry: With the advancement of technology in the transportation industry and the concentration of users' preferences, China's transportation industry chain and products will face major challenges and changes in the next 30 years. It is expected that China's transportation industry will emerge in the future The following development direction. Next, the editor will take a look at the four major development directions of the transportation industry in the future with you.

First, the power of vehicles-electrification

It is predicted in advance that with the improvement of technology in the future, the high rate of use of dry batteries and environmental protection will become the main trend of electric vehicles with new energy materials. It is estimated that in 2050, there will be no more traditional fuel vehicles in front-line cities around the city, and will be replaced by electric vehicles with clean energy materials and zero-emission new energy materials. By 2050, in order to ensure the smooth operation of electric vehicles, all public parking spaces such as street sides and parking lots will be equipped with wireless charging equipment, and high-speed roads will become large channels covered by wireless charging along the way.

Second, the form of transportation-lightweight, intelligent, and environmentally friendly

It is the direction of the technological progress of electric vehicles. By 2050, with the further breaking and progress of technology and new materials, the "materials" of vehicles will ensure the strength of the vehicle body and the weight of the vehicle body will be lighter. Intelligentization: From ADAS (Advanced Manipulation Assistance System) to unmanned control. Environmental protection: The tall, short, fat and thin materials can be recycled.

Third, the use of transportation means-sharing

Now the emergence of Didi, Uber, etc. has greatly stimulated the reforms on the operating side of China's transportation vehicles. The sharing of transportation vehicles can carry more people with fewer cars and rescue urban traffic at the same time. 3, 5 years later, with the further update of technology, vehicles are established based on the positioning of the Internet of Vehicles, and transportation sharing will become the main form of survival for many people using vehicles.

Fourth, the form of transportation - highly centralized

With the innovation and progress of transportation technology, it is estimated that by 2050, the transportation industry structure will also usher in overwhelming changes. The pre-determined development, production, and operation of transportation will be highly concentrated in new and small quantities. Among large groups, these new-style groups will also integrate resources, use new ideas to open up various ports of the transportation industry, and reform the overall system of the transportation industry.

The rapid rise of the rigid and flexible plate industry for transportation, semi-automatic control and new energy material vehicles are in the hot market, helping leading manufacturers of flexible and rigid joint plates for transportation to fill up orders. At the same time, because of the strict review and approval of the transportation industry chain, the requirements for stability are higher, because the gross profit margin of this transportation electronics is higher than that of consumer electronics, which helps the PCB manufacturers of transportation to make better profits. Semi-automatic control and new energy material vehicles promote the substantial increase in PCB consumption of vehicles. With the gradual transition of traditional vehicles through ADAS to semi-automatic control and the promotion of new energy material vehicles, the penetration rate of vehicle electronics continues to increase, and the use of PCBs for vehicles It is more and more widely used.

It is expected that in the future, with the maturity and popularization of technology, the IT level of transportation will increase, and various functions will become more and more extensive and practical, and will continue to penetrate from high-end to low-end. Millimeter-wave radar urges the production of high-frequency PCBs for vehicles. There is a great need for high-frequency PCBs for vehicles. Until now, the millimeter-wave radar for vehicles is in high-speed development. It is expected that the average number of millimeter-wave radars used by bicycles will continue to increase in the future. Will improve quickly. Moreover, radar high-frequency circuits have higher requirements for PCB materials and manufacturing processes. Because of this, the vehicle radar PCB will bring a higher amount of value. As one of the PCB components of the BMS hardware basis, the new energy material vehicle power dry battery BMS will certainly benefit from its industry progress. At the current stage, the size of the PCB used for luxury cars and the surface of the object is about 2-3 square meters. If the use of the new energy substance and the bicycle PCB is 2 square meters, it is calculated as 2,000 yuan per square meter. In 2020, the world's new energy substance The transportation PCB market has reached 16.4 billion Chinese legal tender.

Automotive PCB quasi-preliminary learns to learn how high, leading manufacturers have a great first-mover advantage. Because of the special office background, safety and high current requirements of vehicles, they have very strict requirements on PCB reliability and background suitability. . Because automotive PCBs will learn how high is quasi-preliminarily, vehicle manufacturers generally do not change to certified suppliers at will. Because of this, once manufacturers can enter the supply chain of international manufacturers without encountering difficulties, it will not only bring long-term stable orders to enterprises, but also bring about relative expansion of business operations due to the special nature of the industry with high thresholds. Plenty of growth space. Therefore, the first-mover advantage of leading companies is very superficial.
