METI recently announced production data PCB industry in June, Taiwan, Germany, North America, China, South Korea and other countries also have announced information. A brief description of the PCB industry in the first half 2014 production data.
Japan June shipments obvious signs of a rebound, revenue amounted to 40.67 billion yen, 5.8 percent more than the previous month, while shipments of up to 1.143 million square meters, an increase of 4.8% over the previous month; in the month dollars, revenue and shipments 2014 volume hit a new high, but when the data is compared with the same period last year, although shipments increased 7.8%, but the decline in revenue was 1.9%. This reflects the increase in the volume of the reasons because the price decline. For Japans major production build-up multilayer PCB industry, this trend is not uncommon. This year, shipments rose 8.6 percent last year, but revenue was down 4.1%, showing that in the past 12 months the price has fallen by as much as 12 percent. Since the local demand for mobile phones is limited to the PCB, PCB manufacturers therefore only to cut prices to hit a low opponent, attracting customers with limited.
As for the other major Japanese PCB industry products - double sided and multilayer FPC, with shipments greater revenue gap. Shipments rose 6.2 percent last year, but revenue dropped 27.4%. Fell more than 33% within one year of the sale price. Double-sided and multilayer boards are the main source of foreign smart phones and tablet computer manufacturers, major Japanese PCB manufacturers face competitors from Taiwan and mainland China.
Over the past two months, the circuit module and a semiconductor package substrate reported revenue and shipment volume increased, the main customers of these goods are overseas packaging companies. Recalling the first half of 2014, the total cumulative revenue 2,300 billion yen, down 1.2 percent from a year earlier. For local electronics industry, this is not signs of a rebound is expected this year will not be better than 2013 (2013 is the worst since 2008 for one year).
Taiwan was first announced revenues of $ 1,940 billion Taiwan dollars, up 7.49% increase compared to last year. Daily soft mill reached double-digit growth, nearly 20%; vendors will be expected in the second half will continue to receive orders, therefore Taiwan 2014 will be expected to reach double-digit growth.
North American electronics industry has rebounded in the second quarter of 2014, but the first half of the cumulative PCB shipments are down 0.3 percent over last year, this year is expected to remain steady state.
Germany in the first half increased by 3.2%, manufacturers receive more orders in the second quarter. German industrial downs compare indefinite, it is difficult to make sales forecasts. However, do not expect there will be more than 5% growth this year.
South Korea did not disclose the substance of the data, make only the following Comment: As the PCB industrys largest customer Samsung Electronics, a positive strong competition from the Chinese manufacturers. Samsungs Galaxy series is the flagship product, but the market share has continued to decline. When Samsung encounter any crisis, all the Korean PCB manufacturers are deeply concerned. Competition so in Vietnam and mainland China PCB plant sales prices and production are successively reduced, South Korean domestic market will not be expected to have a positive growth.
2014 global PCB industry will report double-digit profit, on the whole, Taiwan and mainland China will continue to be the high top, other markets such as Japan, North America, Western Europe and South Korea will remain stable this year
