Products Group of Productronica China 2025:

• PCB manufacturing

Whether single-sided, double-sided or multi-layer, PCBs are the heart of all but the simplest electronic devices. Advanced PCBs may contain components—i.e. capacitors, resistors or active devices—that are embedded in the substrate. PCBs require an additional design step to lay out the circuit, but manufacturing and assembly can be automated. 

• EMS 

Previously, the business model for the EMS industry was to specialize in large economies of scale in manufacturing. This means that customers do not have to keep huge inventories of products, and EMS companies can respond to sudden changes in demand more quickly and efficiently. For quite some time, EMS companies have also provided design-service assistance. EMS specialists are located throughout the world. They vary in terms of production capabilities and comply with various quality standards and regulatory requirements.

• Component manufacturing

Manufacturing equipment for components such as capacitors, relays, coils, etc. is considered enabling technology when it comes to making components smaller, smarter and faster as quickly as possible. Not only do these requirements have implications on the process, they also call for a high level of quality.

• Cable processing

Design, shielding and the materials used to produce cables determine their mechanical and electrical properties. Everything that entails including the use of crimping machines is on display at productronica China. 

• Component mount technology/SMT

Surface mounting lends itself well to a high degree of automation, reducing labor costs and greatly increasing production rates. Components can be supplied mounted on carrier tapes. Surface-mount components can be approximately one-quarter to one-tenth the size and weight of through-hole components, and passive components are much cheaper. 

• Test and measurement

When developing electronic circuits and systems, advanced testing equipment is essential. Practical electronics engineering and assembly call for a wide range of electronic testing equipment, ranging from the very simple and inexpensive to extremely complex and sophisticated such as automatic test equipment (ATE). ATE often includes many of these instruments in real and simulated forms.

• Materials (electronic and chemical)

When working with highly sophisticated manufacturing techniques, companies must rely on superior quality materials. From board level to final assembly, productronica China brings together key players with the reliable and compatible material solutions that you need to stay competitive.
