Taiwan chip plant expansion action will not fall after people, crystal electricity will also determine the expansion capacity at least 25% this year, this year has increased by more than 10% of the capacity, then move is still ongoing, but crystal company said that the company already has reached full capacity, expansion is also comply with the demand of the market.
Ronda is starting this year in suzhou factory gradually expand chip production capacity, if the current sets of MOCVD capacities of 70 ~ 80, is expected to add about one-third capacity, but due to the company for the one-stop production, full capacity chip supply to internal product line.
Although the current LED market demand outlook all showed positive development, but the chip market is still pressure capacity supply exceeds demand, the majority of chip plant in the first quarter is still losing money, business is walking on the wire, LED lighting market development to the market expected rapid growth remains to be seen, in the LED industry is still in turmoil, fab expansion has now became a bet on the future market development.
The personage inside course of study about industry recovery more cautious optimism, also reflects the LED entrepreneurs have become mature and stable. The future for the enterprise, only by the technique and technology innovation, reduce costs to make enterprises gain a foothold in the fierce competition. Do the worst, even last year’s price war, enterprises will be a lot more confidence.
Despite the increase in the price of chip making waves in the short term, but the unit cost of lumen will continue to decline, at the same time, industrial chain each link product standardization and personalized two-way, remote phosphor, super capacitor and other new materials and technology mature, will be the LED lighting industry into the rapid growth of positive factors.
