SMT technology started in the 1970s, rapidly grew in the 1980s, and steadily developed in the 1990s, and has become very mature to this day; The three core production equipment of SMT production line include: solder paste printing machine, mounter, reflow soldering furnace; The SMT placement machine is the primary core equipment used to achieve high-speed, high-precision, and fully automatic placement of components, which is related to the efficiency and accuracy of the SMT production line. It is the most critical and complex equipment, usually accounting for more than 60% of the investment in the entire SMT production line.
Today, KINGSUN engineers have compiled the following data on the development of the world's top three mainstream high-speed SMT wiring workshops and electronic manufacturing industry, hoping to help everyone have a preliminary understanding and understanding of the electronic industry.
What are the brands of SMT mounting machines?
99% of the SMT placement machine segment in mainland China's SMT electronic manufacturing industry is still controlled by Japan, South Korea, Europe, the United States, Taiwan etc.mainly include:
SMT high-speed pick and place machine:
ASM (acquired Siemens SIPLACE in 2011), Panasonic, Fuji, etc.
SMT medium speed pick and place machine:
YAMAHA (YAMAHA has three product lines: Yamaha SMT machines, Hitachi SMT machines, I-PLUS SMT machines), JUKI SMT machines (acquiring SONY SMT machines), Korean Hanhua SMT machines (acquiring Samsung SMT machines), etc.
Overview of China's SMT market
Since 1985, China has developed into the world's largest electronics manufacturer and is moving towards becoming a powerful electronics manufacturer.
China's SMT market scale
Since the introduction of SMT automatic placement machines in 1985, China's SMT technology has been relatively affordable for nearly 40 years in China; From 1985 to 1989, a total of over 60 SMT machines were introduced, forming a production capacity of nearly ten million televisions, creating a good beginning for the domestic electronic manufacturing industry; According to incomplete statistics, China currently has over 50000 SMT production lines and a total inventory of over 100000 SMT machines, making it the world's largest and most important SMT market!
1、ASM
25 ASM TX2 SMT machines per line, with an actual production capacity of 2 million points per hour!
2.FUJI pick and place machine
Fuji NXT pick and place machine Workshop
3.Panasonic high-speed pick and place machine
Panasonic NPM production line
As a globally renowned electronic manufacturing base, China can clearly distinguish the development pattern of the electronic manufacturing industry in the past 40 years of reform and opening up. We can see that the domestic electronic manufacturing industry has gone through a unique development path from scratch, from small to large, from ordinary to professional, and from introduction to self production. Every transformation and transformation in this process cannot be separated from the presence of SMT equipment.
