Recently, the 2023 Zhongguancun International Technology Trading Conference (hereinafter referred to as “Zhongguancun Forum”) was officially held in Beijing. On the first day of the Global Technology Trading Eco-Partners conference, Omron, the global digital transformation expert in the field of automation, with electronic components EFC technology, was selected as one of the “Top Ten recommended International technology trading Projects” in the “100 International Technology Trading Innovation Project List”. The efforts and achievements of enabling the efficient and sustainable development of the electronics industry were fully recognized by the participating experts.
In this regard, Xu Jian, Executive Director of Omron Corporation and Managing Director of Omron (China) Co., LTD., said: “As one of the core businesses of Omron Group, the Device and Module business won the ‘Top 10 International Technology Innovation Transfer Project’ award, which is the result of the joint efforts of all employees and stakeholders in the device and module business, and a strong confirmation of Omron’s practice of technology innovation to drive a sustainable and efficient future. With the deepening of the concept of sustainable development, Omron will continue to guide the new long-term strategic plan ‘Shaping the Future 2030’ and continue to provide pioneering products and solutions in all major business areas to help solve social issues with practice.”
With the theme of “Openness and Cooperation for a Shared Future”, this year’s Zhongguancun Forum has attracted invited guests from more than 80 countries and regions and nearly 200 foreign government departments, international organizations and institutions. As the “first stop” of the entire forum agenda, the Global Technology Trading Eco-Partners Conference has built a new service platform for the release, promotion, contact and negotiation of a large number of original cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements. The “List of 100 International Technology Trading Innovation Projects” and “Top Ten International technology innovation Transfer Projects”, as major brands released by the conference, provide an important platform for many science and technology enterprises to display and exchange their innovative technologies, and understand the development trend of the industry.
The background of EFC technology stems from the tendency of miniaturization and rapid iterative updating of electronic components in various fields. In response to this change, Omron has made continuous exploration in the design and performance optimization of electronic component inspection devices and automated production line inspection equipment: by applying the innovative EFC process, the probe can reproduce the complex probe shape through a single component structure, and custom design of the contact part shape suitable for inspection objects; At the same time, Omron also uses innovative materials with high hardness and elasticity to maximize product performance.
“EFC technology is already widely used in the electronics industry, and we are pleased that it is playing an increasingly important role in building resilience and creating business value for our customers. In the future, Omron’s electronic components business will continue to be rooted in the goal of “helping popularize new energy and high-speed communication”, and continue to improve technology, bring more innovative solutions to customers, and continue to contribute to the efficient and sustainable production of electronic products.” Said Zhang Li, director and general manager of Omron Electronic Components Trading (Shanghai) Co., LTD.
