Paying attention to the status of relays in the electronics industry

The relay is an important role in the field of automation control applications. In recent years, the market competition has become increasingly fierce, and various relay companies are rushing to introduce the latest differentiated products, making the relay surpass the concept of a simple time-domain basic component in the traditional sense, especially high. The appearance of technologically advanced technical performance indicators has provided the relay with a broader stage.

According to statistics, there are currently nearly 300 relay companies in China, most of which are producing low-cost electromechanical relays. Only a few companies are expanding the production scale of high-end relays. According to Guo Manjin, president of Xiamen Hongfa Co., Ltd., one of the top 100 electronic component companies in China, the production capability of relays in China is continuously improving, the pace of innovation is accelerating, and international competitiveness is constantly increasing. Both the industry and the enterprise level have a certain degree of With competitive strength, China has entered the ranks of the world's relay power industry. However, there is still a big gap between domestic companies and international manufacturers, mainly because they are generally small in scale, weak in profitability, low in R&D investment, and lack of innovation capability.

Experts said that for domestic relay companies, no matter whether it is from professional focus, national needs or market orientation, a full range of relays and new relay products should be the core leading products. Starting from the urgency of innovation, reality and forward-looking, the relay industry must first define the direction of development of new relays, and strive to make breakthroughs in the new relay field to lead the development of the relay industry. Second, priority should be given to the development of the core upstream industry chain of the industrial chain. , Including precision molds, core components, relays for special manufacturing equipment and R & D design, software, relay ASIC chip design industry.
