"Made in China" to "Created in China" An Important Opportunity in Production Automation in the Electronic Manufacturing Industry

In recent years, as labor costs in China have risen and material expenses have increased, many leading companies in the electronics manufacturing sector have begun to embrace industrial automation. This shift has sparked a widespread trend toward automation in the electronics industry, driven by the need for efficiency, precision, and cost control. One of Festo's flagship products is the H-frame portal EXCM. This compact, plane-based system is designed to optimize space usage while delivering exceptional performance. Its highly integrated structure expands workspace coverage, and the parallel dynamic drive technology minimizes mobile loads. The pre-configured driver and controller package simplifies setup and debugging. Notably, the EXCM-30 is particularly well-suited for small-part assembly and electronics production. It’s an ideal choice when handling tiny components or when a more compact machine is required. The electronics manufacturing process involves numerous complex steps, making speed, accuracy, reliability, and cost-effectiveness crucial for successful automation. Festo has consistently focused on these key factors in its product development for the industry. Its solutions are defined by three core attributes: speed, compactness, and precision. Whether it's surface mount, testing, packaging, or front-end wafer processing in the semiconductor field, Festo offers tailored automation solutions that meet diverse needs. When it comes to pneumatic and electric systems, Festo recognizes the unique advantages of both. Today, leveraging these strengths together is essential. Festo provides customers with a combination of pneumatic and electric automation products, offering optimized hybrid solutions that enhance cost-effectiveness and performance. Looking ahead, electrical technologies are expected to play an increasingly dominant role in automation. For example, Festo’s EPCO/OMS system offers greater flexibility and ease of use compared to traditional cylinders. However, pneumatic solutions still hold a significant price advantage, making them a valuable option for factory automation. The German government introduced the “Industry 4.0” initiative, which marks the fourth stage of industrial evolution following mechanization, electrification, and informatization. From Festo’s perspective, Industry 4.0 isn’t just about technology—it also emphasizes human-machine collaboration, training, and education. The future factory will be a seamless integration of the physical and digital worlds. Technology: Innovative smart components, modular and networked systems, functional integration, and microsystems. People: Human-machine cooperation, flexible and intelligent technologies, and user-friendly operation. Training and Education: Programs for new employees, skill certification, and FestoDidactic educational tools. For Festo, China represents a critical market. The company has long been committed to building strong partnerships with local customers, providing customized solutions that meet specific needs. Under the banner of “Industry 4.0,” Festo remains dedicated to this vision. While Industry 4.0 is an ongoing transformation, Festo is actively involved in shaping it. The company encourages Chinese users to participate in setting new standards, ensuring their voices are heard and their ideas contribute to the global conversation. This presents a valuable opportunity for China to transition from “Made in China” to “Created in China.”
