PCB Tech - Will PCB circuit boards become "just-needed goods"?

PCB, also known as printed circuit board, printed circuit board, as the "mother of electronic products", is widely used in communications consumer electronics, computers, automotive electronics, industrial control, and defense, aerospace, and other fields. It is a modern electronic information product Indispensable electronic components.

In recent years, the development of China's PCB industry has faced many difficulties. From the perspective of the global environment, the PCB industry has undergone a short-term adjustment due to the impact of the global smart electronic products entering the era of inventory, and the total PCB output value has experienced a short and slight decline from 2015 to 2016., And gradually recovered in 2017.

From the perspective of the domestic small environment, the rising labor and material costs and the increasing pressure on environmental protection have made PCB companies struggling, and many PCB companies have suffered serious losses under the dual pressures at home and abroad. In order to get out of the predicament, some PCB companies gradually moved their factories inland, but they were unable to get rid of the predicament fundamentally. From the data of the first three quarters of 2018, the electronics industry achieved revenue of 1357.9902 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16.52%, and realized a net profit of 63.544 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 0.86%. The growth rate of revenue and net profit slowed significantly compared with last year. The overall performance of the industry is inherited, and the internal differentiation is obvious. The current development prospects of the global information and electronics industry have reached a severe crossroads.

As a member of the upper and middle reaches of the electronics manufacturing industry chain, PCB companies have the obligation to create a better environment for survival and development for downstream companies in the industry. It has always been a common phenomenon in the PCB industry to charge expedited fees. As expedited fees are handled by specialists, the cost of PCB companies will be higher. Therefore, it is understandable to charge expedited fees. But there are always some "stabs" who are brave enough to break the routine. "The first person to eat crabs is very admirable." As an Internet proofing factory with the current global speed of PCB proofing No.1, JiePei has become the "first person" to eat crabs without rush fees. Convention means new life, and it also subverts the traditional model of the entire industry. Tens of millions of profit gains are not only the trust of customers, but also a small contribution to the development of the electronics industry.

"Responding to all changes with the same", only by not forgetting the original intention of devoting itself to the electronics industry and caring for the sake of customers can we go further in the rapidly changing market conditions. Opportunities and challenges coexist. In the current environment of accelerated evolution of 5G network construction, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things, the PCB industry will become several important basic forces in the entire electronics industry chain. In the next 5 years, the world The PCB market will maintain a moderate growth, and the ever-changing environment will become a new direction driving the growth of PCB demand.
