Foshan will be the production of LED chip equipment within 5 years of output value or over 1 billion

Under the influence of the financial crisis, many companies have cut the thin winter, however, is located in Nanhai District of Foshan City, Guicheng Guangdong Akinobu Group Co. Ltd. is upstream, through production, learning and research way to promote the transformation and upgrading of enterprises.

Yesterday afternoon, Akinobu group held a "semiconductor lighting chip equipment project signing ceremony, which marks the first domestic, fourth of the world's production of semiconductor lighting chip core equipment manufacturing enterprises will be born in the city of Foshan.

Foshan municipal Party committee secretary Lin Yuanhe, deputy director of the Guangdong provincial science and Technology Department, deputy director of the equal leadership attended the ceremony. Peng Ping believes that the project on the improvement of the domestic LED industry chain, promote industrial agglomeration played a very positive role.

"Chip equipment of semiconductor lighting, as LED (two luminescence tube) of the upstream industry, previously only from imported equipment to the production of LED products, but now will use their own means that the domestic manufactured equipment to produce LED products. Said Liang Fengyi, chairman of Guangdong Group Co., ltd..

Break the monopoly of foreign technology to fill the gaps

Due to energy saving and environmental protection, LED products are more and more widely used, consume the same electrical energy, LED lamp power saving 85% than incandescent, fluorescent lamp power saving by more than 50%. But for a long time, LED chip industry and its core manufacturing technology rests in the hands of a few enterprises abroad, which makes the domestic LED industry shows the overall level is not high at the same time, equipment manufacturers have to rely on imports of foreign chip.

It is understood that yesterday signed a semiconductor lighting chip project is developed by Huazhong University of Science and Technology professor Gan Zhiyin research and development team, and with the letter of the group reached a cooperative development agreement. Production, research and the two sides after the full demonstration of the project, assessment, determine the project budget investment of about 500 million yuan, the first phase of investment of $80 million.

Reporters learned that, at present, the project has completed all the technical data of the project, is preparing to pilot the project prototype and project industrialization. According to Professor Gan Zhiyin revealed that the prototype is expected to be operational within a year. Once the domestic semiconductor lighting chip equipment industry market, the domestic semiconductor lighting industry truly mastered the technology initiative and the commanding point, will enable the LED chip production investment cost is greatly reduced, which will bring revolutionary influence of domestic LED industry, domestic and even foreign LED packaging product prices will be greatly decreased.

At present, the LED lamp is still in the trial application stage in China, and the resistance is the high cost. One of the most fundamental reason is that the high price of semiconductor lighting equipment imported chips lead to high cost of production. Gan Chi silver professor said that currently imported from abroad a semiconductor lighting chip equipment to 15 million yuan, often a chip manufacturer needs to purchase more than one device to achieve a certain scale of production. The high cost of acquisition hindered the development of the industry.

In this regard, Peng Ping also said that at present, Guangdong accounted for 70% of the domestic LED packaging products and applications, but has been the most lacking is the upstream industry chain LED - chip epitaxy equipment. Semiconductor lighting chip technology in the domestic R & D success, will break the monopoly of a few foreign companies upstream industry situation. Liang Fengyi said.

Will own a complete LED industry chain

The financial crisis affected the various industries, Liang Fengyi admitted that the export volume of the group also declined. It is also true that the upgrading and transformation of traditional industries is particularly important. In this regard, Lin Yuan and believes that this is a representative of the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. At present, Foshan and the Pearl River Delta are seeking the road of industrial transformation, under the influence of the financial crisis, the upgrading of processing and manufacturing industry is imminent.

In the next 2 to 3 years, the LED industry will be more intense competition, who mastered the core technology to occupy the cost advantage. Liang Fengyi said, with the increasingly widespread application of LED lighting technology, pregnant with the huge market potential of semiconductor lighting chip devices. According to reports, prototype trial success, is expected in the next 5 years to achieve the output value of 1 billion - 3 billion yuan.

After the top of the semiconductor lighting chip equipment industry research and development, the letter will soon be able to have a complete industrial chain LED. "General manager Zhao Xin Photoelectric Technology Co., Ltd. Jin Chunxiao said, metaphorically speaking, is equal to the chip package is equal to the tungsten wire, lighting, can have different styles, and the chip is made of tungsten wire equipment of semiconductor lighting equipment. With the ability of semiconductor lighting chip manufacturing equipment, the master of the whole industry chain of the core technology.

At the same time yesterday, there are LED packaging project production ceremony. It is understood that before this, Akinobu group and the Huazhong University of Science and Technology professor Liu Sheng research team founded the Guangdong Zhaoxin Photoelectric Technology Co Ltd, and in February last year to start production, has formed an annual output of chip package module production capacity of 240 million.

Little knowledge:

LED is the English Light Diode (light-emitting diode) abbreviation, LED does not rely on filament heating to obtain light source, energy conversion efficiency is high, in theory, only 10% of incandescent energy consumption, energy consumption of fluorescent lamp 50%.

Chip device of semiconductor lighting is photoelectric chip external equipment, is the most important LED in the process of production equipment, production technology is the key technology of the epitaxial wafer, the value of the whole industry chain of production cost of equipment (epitaxial wafer chip package application) 70%. At present, as the upper and middle reaches of the epitaxial wafer and chip technology, there are strict technical barriers internationally, only a few companies in Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries.

It is understood,
