Virtual reality in production

Virtual reality technology is being used by electronics manufacturing companies to improve production efficiency. This development is one of many trends in the electronics industry that will continue. This technology in electronics manufacturing is often referred to as digital design, simulation and integration. Virtual reality technology enables companies to inspect design objects at all conceivable scales and thus eliminate errors in the product as early as the design phase.

IoT technology

IoT is probably one of the biggest trends in the electronics industry. Home appliance manufacturers are integrating their products with IoT technology to make life convenient for customers. Internet of Things technology is the networking of physical objects and devices that are integrated with sensors and software that enable them to exchange and collect data. The most important technologies for smart household appliances include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy, micro-servers and micro-electromechanical systems.

Outsourcing the use of resources

Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are increasingly outsourcing product design and development processes to Electronic Manufacturing Service (EMS) partners. EMS companies are offering more design services for sub-assemblies and finished products. OEMs are working with EMS partners and adopting new models such as Joint Design Manufacturing (JDM) and Outsourcing Design Manufacturing (ODM).

Robotics & Automation

One of the other trends in the electronics industry is automation. Many electronic equipment companies are utilizing robotics and automation to improve the efficiency and productivity of their equipment. Sensors are being used in various machines to access invaluable data to improve efficiency and reduce potential breakdowns, indicating a rise in the adoption of automation and robotics technology to improve productivity and reduce production costs.
