Trends in electronic manufacturing and SMME Opportunities A leading South African Electronic Contract Manufacturer Major trends worth noting going into 2015 • Automotive Electronics • “Smart Cars” are quickly becoming the new rage among auto manufacturers. A few years ago, it was only the high-end “luxury” brands including hookups for smartphones and tablets. • Electronics are expected to compormise 40% for car component costs in 2015 • At the high-end, we're now seeing brands like Lexus talking about full “Heads Up Displays” integrated onto\into their front windshields Major trends worth noting going into 2015 • Medical Electronics • Rapidly-developing countries are buying up medical equipment about as fast as anyone can produce it. • Parallel to this, of course, is the never-ending drive by the high-tech nations to keep developing better medical hardware. • Either way, current estimates are that the electronics manufacturing sector will be worth nearly $40 billion by the end of the decade. Major trends worth noting going into 2015 • Green Technologies • As climate change statistics continue to mount, there's increasing pressure from all areas – consumers, businesses, and governments – to look into more eco-friendly manufacturing solutions. The various carbon cap or carbon trading plans being implemented are also helping to drive this push. • With major programs being launched to drive research in the field, manufacturing concerns who can get their ISO certifications in place could see a lot of interest, even in countries that aren't at the low end of the global manufacturing cost scale. Major trends worth noting going into 2015 • South African Reshoring • Asian outsourcing isn’t cheap anymore , according to recent study manufacturing in SA is only 7-10% more expensive when all hidden costs are considered • Considering the major difference in quality assurance and reliability a company gets from domestic manufacturing, that percentage starts looking like a small price to pay to avoid a (literal) world of supply line hassles. • SA government in-conjunction with DTI are committed in skills transfer programs and support these when working with international Asian giants. Factory Introduction • Founded in 1993 • A major player in the SMT industry in South Africa and Africa • Specializing in Electronic PC board assembly • High-tech facility located in Randburg, Johannesburg • Total floor space of 5000m across 19 SMT production lines • Currently manufacturing for key companies dealing in the Mining, Consumer Electronics, Commercial, Military and Vehicle & Asset Tracking sectors • 250 staff, 12 production lines and a total placement capacity of well over 4 million components per day • Large volume mass production is a key strength • Adheres to ISO9001 and IPC protocols Services offered • High volume runs, fast turnaround at competitive prices* • Component procurement. • Prototyping. • Surface Mount Technology assembly. • Automatic Optical Inspection. • Conventional assembly by hand or machine (Radial & Axial) • Assembly and testing. • Pre-production runs. • PCB washing system. • Quality control (ISO 9001:2008 standard). • Automatic selective conformal coating line. • Packaging and delivery. Manufacturing Equipment • 19 Yamaha, SMD machines, 2 Samsung and 6 Universal SMD • • • • • • • assembly machines Formed into 10 production lines State-of-the-art ancillary machines Radial & Axial insert machines, Ovens, Printers, Automatic Optical Inspection scanners and X-Ray equipment Placement of over 350 000 surface mount components per hour Dedicated reflow oven - capable of reflowing lead free components Main lines also equipped for Nitrogen reflow High capacity, 190 000 components per hour line, through to a low quantity pre-production line Assembling Capabilities • All SMD boards go through Automatic Optical Inspection • • • • • • • machines to ensure perfect quality All boards are also manually and visually inspected High volume production lines are fully automated Components are mounted, reflowed and then automatically unloaded without human intervention Printing is done on vision enabled DEK screen printers Two fully automated axial and radial insertion machines Five hand insertion lines for irregular sized or odd shaped components Multiple hand soldering departments Quality Control • ISO9001:2000 certified since 2006 • SABS certified since 2007 • ISO9001:2008 certified since 2008 • Continuously adhering to and improving upon standards Conculsion • With the SA DTT Roll-out upon us our goal is to localise • • • • STB Manufacturing as well as accessories This is achieved by a solid skills transfer program with our world class asian manfucturing partners Opportunites lie for the SMME in Anntenae , RCU , Cables manufacturing aswell as aftersales services Of the above we can be contacted to provide the assistance in skills tranfer and manufacturing process development. We commited to ensure that these stay with us in SA to ensure job creation and GDP impact
