PCB News - ​How should PCB companies go on facing the new situation?

In the first half of 2015, the growth rate of the software industry, medical electronics, automotive electronics, wearable devices, and smart homes exceeded 15%. Under the circumstances that the general environment is getting better, what is the development trend of the printed circuit industry in the first half of the year? Where is the growth point of the industry? How should circuit board companies go on?

Analysis of China's electronic information manufacturing industry in the first half of 2015

Since the release of "China Industry 2025" and the popularization of the concept of Industry 4.0, China's electronic information manufacturing industry is gradually developing towards a strong entity, adjusting its structure, and promoting transformation. In response to the development characteristics and problems of the electronics industry in the first half of the year, Gao Sumei, deputy director of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, gave a keynote speech on "Analysis of China's Electronic Information Manufacturing Industry in the First Half of 2015". She believes that the development of the electronic information industry in the first half of the year is characterized by an increase in positive factors and a good development trend. The specific manifestations are the rapid improvement of economic benefits and the enhancement of risk resistance; the high development of the domestic demand market and the continuous strengthening of information consumption. However, there are also problems such as the electronic industry entering a new normal, increasing constraints, and the coexistence of opportunities and challenges. However, considering various factors, it is expected that the electronics industry will continue to maintain steady development throughout the year, with an increase of about 10%.

Thinking of the development of domestic PCB special equipment under the new normal

The transformation of global industrialization is about to move from the mechanical revolution to Industry 4.0, which means that the manufacturing industry is making great strides towards decentralization and information interconnection. In this regard, the vice chairman of CPCA believes that China’s PCB special equipment still has (1) low market share in the mid-to-high-end market; (2) excess capacity in some mid- and low-end markets; (3) difficulty in recruiting workers, The cost of employment is high; (4) The status quo of low efficiency and large waste. Domestic PCB equipment can only follow the global industrial change and plan the path of PCB special equipment according to the characteristics of the domestic PCB industry, and increase the pace of independent research and development; sharing the new achievements of the reform can gradually change this situation and make the PCB special equipment industry more Development in a direction that conforms to the characteristics of the times. In addition, he also introduced how Han's CNC actively responded to the wave of Industry 4.0 and independently innovated the process of research and development. This information sharing has benefited the participants a lot.

Expand China's PCB industry and update the global market

Professional doctoral analysis, the source of the vitality of the PCB industry and the market explosion can be said to be in China, whether it is mobile phones, PCs, wearable electronics and automotive electronics, China is a market with great demand. However, judging from the development of electronic information manufacturing in the first half of the year, the PCB industry has been relatively slow due to overcapacity and the impact of the strong US dollar. However, China PCB is slowly forming a red supply chain. With the slowing down of investment by foreign-funded enterprises and the gradual acceleration of the development of domestic large and medium-sized enterprises, only by increasing R&D and innovation can domestic PCB lead the development direction of China's PCB industry and recover the economic development of the entire industry in the second half of the year.

Ten years of sharpening a sword, China’s electronics industry’s path of no return

The copper clad laminate industry is a core part of the PCB industry. Due to the constraints of technical barriers, trade barriers and material shortcomings in the domestic market of the large industry, there is a trend of long-term loss-making business downturn. With the development of the copper clad laminate industry in recent years, the profit of the copper clad laminate industry has hardly increased in recent years, and the entire industry is still in a difficult operation. In this regard, the vice chairman of CPCA proposed that the development of the manufacturing industry will be the next climax after the subversive reforms in the retail industry and the information communication industry. Although the copper clad laminate industry is still facing a very difficult situation. However, after ten years of sharpening a sword, the electronics industry will always form a competitive advantage in the entire industry chain in the vertical construction of cooperation and horizontal integration of resources. Therefore, the copper clad laminate industry should also increase the pace of R&D and technological innovation, and strive to play the role of blood transfusion and oxygen delivery in supporting the development and progress of China's PCB industry.

Innovative development, transformation and upgrading of enterprises

Faced with the new era pattern of China's industry 2025 and Industry 4.0, many large and small PCB companies are eager to actively respond to the requirements of the new era and develop under the general pattern.
