On the evening of November 1, 2021, China's leading high-end electromagnetic shielding film manufacturer: GZFB Electronic Materials Technology Corporation announced that the company will invest 600 million yuan in the construction of a high-performance resistive film production base.
In recent years, electronic integrated devices have developed towards miniaturization and high performance. The unit area available for mounting on printed circuit boards has approached the physical limit, which has been unable to meet the mounting needs of larger electronic components on high-density printed circuit boards. . Among them, resistive devices are major electronic components that take up a relatively large volume and are expensive to install.
Resistive film is a passive component that can be embedded in the high-density circuit layout of printed circuit boards. Compared with traditional resistive components, resistive films have the advantages of higher reliability, saving circuit panel space, and relatively reducing production costs, and become the best technical route to replace traditional surface mount resistive devices.
As a new generation of high-end resistive products, the manufacturing technology of resistive film is mainly controlled by foreign manufacturers. There are few manufacturers in China that have the ability to produce resistive film materials and related intellectual property rights. At present, the resistive film materials needed by manufacturers in the consumer electronics industry in China are purchased and produced from foreign manufacturers such as Ohmega Technologies and Ticer Technologies.
Through independent research and development, GZFB has made breakthroughs in the field of resistive films and achieved technological breakthroughs. Its resistive film products are mainly used in consumer electronics fields such as smart phones, tablet computers, and wearable devices. At present, sample tests and customer test certification have been completed. The company enjoys strong technical and cost advantages in the field of resistive films in China.
After years of development, the company has accumulated many well-known terminal customer groups at home and abroad, such as Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, etc., as well as a batch of high-quality direct downstream customers through the rapid development of high-performance electromagnetic shielding film business. The downstream demand customers of resistive films, shielding films, flexible copper clad laminates and other products belong to the same customer group, and the synergy effect of customer resources is huge.
The company stated that the construction of the resistance film production base will not only help the company expand its existing product categories horizontally, increase the utilization rate of customer resources, increase revenue sources, enhance the company’s operational stability and sustainability, and further strengthen the company’s control stability. At the same time, it demonstrates the firm confidence of the actual controller in the electronic components and electronic special materials manufacturing industry and the company's future development prospects.
