PCB is a printed circuit board. Its main function is to make various electronic components form a predetermined circuit connection and play the role of relay transmission. Almost all electronic equipment must use PCB, so PCB is also called "one of the electronic system products". mother". With the promulgation of China's integrated circuit industry development outline, my country's integrated circuit industry is on the fast track of rapid development, and the PCB industry is also vigorously moving forward under its pull. According to the survey of China Statistical Database, the total output value of the global PCB market reached US$54.2 billion in 2016, and is expected to grow to US$60.4 billion by 2021, with a compound annual growth rate of about 2.2%. The PCB industry originated in Europe and the United States, but has been shifting to Asia in the past two decades. The data shows that the total PCB output value in Asia accounts for more than 80% of the world's output value, and the PCB output value in mainland China accounts for about 50% of the global output value. China has become the world's largest PCB production base.

From the perspective of development potential, from 2016 to 2021, the PCB industry in mainland China will continue to grow, and the annual compound growth rate is expected to reach 3.4%, ranking first in the world. The PCB industries in Japan, North America and Europe will face a recession, with compound annual growth rates of -2.5%, 0.2% and -1.9% respectively. In mainland China, Shenzhen is an electronic information manufacturing base and a distribution center for various electronic components. It has become a procurement center in the global electronic manufacturing market. In order to promote industrial transformation and upgrading, and make every effort to build "Shenzhen" into a "global circuit board procurement center", from August 29 to August 31, 2017, Reed Exhibitions Group, Shenzhen Circuit Board Industry Association, Taiwan Circuit Board Association, China The Electronic Information Industry Branch of the Council for the Promotion of International Trade is dedicated to creating the "2017 4th Shenzhen International Circuit Board Sourcing Exhibition" (CS Show 2017).

Emerging industries drive the continued growth of the PCB industry

The development of the PCB industry is inseparable from the market opportunities brought about by the rise of emerging industries. At the beginning of this year, the National Development and Reform Commission announced the "Guiding Catalog of Key Products and Services for Strategic Emerging Industries" (2016 Edition), which includes the new generation of information infrastructure industry, high-end equipment manufacturing industry, new energy industry, energy saving and environmental protection industry, and new energy automobile industry. 8 industries in 5 major fields, including artificial intelligence and digital creative industries, entered the list of guidance catalogs for the first time. The subdivision catalog of new energy vehicles has also been expanded from the original "pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles" to "new energy vehicle products", "charging, battery replacement and hydrogenation facilities" and "production testing equipment" Three items. According to the goals set in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of National Strategic Emerging Industries", by 2020, the added value of these strategic emerging industries will account for 15% of the GDP. The new generation of information technology, high-end manufacturing The scale of output value of 5 industries, including biotechnology, green and low-carbon, and digital creativity, will reach 10 trillion yuan.

According to data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in the first quarter of this year, the overall operation of my country's electronic information manufacturing industry continued its steady and positive development trend since the second half of 2016. The added value of the electronic information manufacturing industry above designated size increased by 14.9% year-on-year, an acceleration of 6.3 percentage points year-on-year. Among them, the production of communication equipment industry maintained a double-digit growth rate. In the first quarter, 483.89 million mobile phones were produced, an increase of 8.5% year-on-year, of which 358.66 million were smart phones, an increase of 11.4%, accounting for 74.1% of the total mobile phone production; the production growth rate of the computer industry continued to pick up, and the export situation improved. In the first quarter, 65.7 million units of microcomputer equipment were produced, an increase of 2.1%, of which 39.03 million were notebook computers, an increase of 10%. Hot industries such as the Internet of Things, smart home, and robots continue to gain momentum. According to predictions from international consulting agencies, by 2020, there are expected to be 25 billion smart devices in the world, 15 billion smart phones, 2 billion tablet computers, and 1 billion consumer electronics; By 2021, the total output value of my country's smart home industry will exceed 290 billion yuan; the promulgation of "Made in China 2025" takes the development of the robot industry as a national strategy. It is estimated that in the next five years, the annual output of independent brand industrial robots will reach 100,000 units, six The annual output of industrial robots with axes and above will reach more than 50,000 units, and the annual sales revenue of service robots will exceed 30 billion yuan. In the past two years, more and more preferential policies of the central and local governments are tilting towards strategic emerging industries. In addition to traditional tax incentives and central and local financial support, new supporting policies and related industry funds are also being released continuously. Policy support and vigorous development of enterprises targeting emerging industries will bring more growth opportunities to the PCB market. .
