Customer background

The company serves as a key manufacturing base for the global high-end PCB and flexible board supply chain, with products widely used in smart devices, wearable devices, high-speed transmission modules, and the high-end consumer electronics market.
The Kaohsiung Hefa plant is a newly built high-tech electronics factory, introducing a highly automated and intelligent manufacturing architecture, and undertaking a key capacity layout in the supply chain for advanced electronic products.
With the continuous growth of high-density electronic products and high-speed transmission applications, advanced PCB manufacturing demands increasingly clean environments, equipment stability, and energy efficiency.

Challenges and pain points

High-end PCB processes consume high energy, and air conditioning and utility systems bear heavy loads
Etching, lamination, electroplating, and cleanroom environments require long-term stable operation. Combined with air conditioning, dehumidification, and air compression systems, the overall plant energy consumption remains high.
High-density electronics manufacturing demands extremely high environmental stability
High-end flexible boards and high-density PCBs are sensitive to temperature, humidity, cleanliness, and equipment stability. Unstable control can easily affect yield and product reliability.
Smart factories require more comprehensive data governance capabilities
As requirements for smart manufacturing and ESG increase, companies not only need to monitor energy usage but also establish early warning, analysis, and intelligent operation and maintenance capabilities.
