Toch is facing price crisis--PCB Assembly manufacturer
iPhone 4S come out last week! Chen Hung won the Apple orders, Wintek, in the fourth quarter revenue is expected to operate into the high-grade year. Good performance of the touch panel, the industry frequently expand the factory, however, pcba china since the touch panel plant performance this year continued to decline, corporate, said touch panel oversupply next year, probably in the official competition into the bargain.
Touch in 2010, rapid growth, as touch Mian Bangu, however, a year later, touch it because of excessive competition, facing price crisis.
This is not surprising, analysts believe that Taiwan's stock, it seems from the history of the electronics industry, as long as one ethnic group over-expanded plant, year and a half to two years, will enter a loss period, if not quickly make physical adjustments,pcb assembly some companies will inevitably closed down, or be a strong industry mergers and acquisitions; touch panel industry predicts that next year the average selling price average price touch the product may fall 10-15% range.
Looking at the touch panel industry next year, the development of technological innovation is an important issue next year. Merrill Lynch said foreign investment, now used by the smart phone touch panels, multi-touch for the plug-in modules fit panel, recently, many panel makers actively developing in-cell technology,electronic pcba the touch panel that is directly integrated in the panel manufacturing process, without correction, do not touch more than add a layer of glass, you can maintain the degree of panel 2.2mm thin, so mobile phones thinner and lighter.
Merrill Lynch believes that Apple and innovative ideas, always accept the new component solutions to improve product efficiency, regardless of panel plant introduced in-cell, or a touch panel plant has actively developed the Touch on Lens, GG technology, are likely to be possible by 2012 next-generation technology used in iPhone, Apple once adopted, is likely to be popular on the world. However, each solution has its drawbacks, you want to gain market favor, "cost" will be an important key factor.
