LED Factory Upgrade Driven By The Belt and Road Environment

Revamp your LED factory with the Belt and Road environment in mind. Embrace innovation and sustainability as you upgrade your LED production capabilities. Explore how the Belt and Road initiative is driving positive changes in the LED industry, and stay ahead in the global market with our advanced solutions.

Saudi Arabia has been a major importer of China’s LED lamps since 2010. In 2021, the LED category import country ranked 25th in the world. Now Saudi Arabia has a huge demand for LED lamps every year. There are also more and more local LED production companies in Saudi Arabia.

We know the Pan Lighting company in 2019 and understand that they have more than 40 years of LED assembly and sales experience, and have been providing lighting project needs for government and commercial organizations for many years.

Pan Lighting's orders are mainly for building lighting, street lights and other indoor and outdoor lighting facilities. Their annual order volume is as high as 1 million pcs.

Many years ago, they had more than a dozen manual LED light assemble line and a large number of workers for the assembly and production of LED lights. All the raw materials of LED lights are imported from China, including assembled LED and drivers.

From the benefits of the Belt and Road Initiative in recent years, coupled with the inclination of tariffs, self-production of SKD and LED has become the trend of all LED assembly companies. This cost will be lower 30%, coupled with increasingly fierce competition.

In 2019, Pan Lighting found I.C.T. They are preparing to build an LED SMT machines line for the new factory for produce the LED and driver, hoping that we can provide them with a suitably SMT solutions.

I.C.T engineer designed the semi-automatic LED SMT machines line solution, and after seeing each other's products and production capacity, he chose the most suitable SMT equipment.

At the same time, overseas engineer Romeo rushed to Pan Lighting as soon as he completed the after-sales service in Russia. With the joint efforts of both parties, an SMT factory has grown from 0 to 1.

The person in charge of Pan Lighting was worried that Romeo could not be used to eating Saudi food, so he sent Romeo to a local Chinese restaurant for dinner. Of course, in the end, Romeo also tasted the local specialty-hand pilaf.

Romeo still keeps in touch with the engineers of Pan Lighting. Not long ago, Romeo also helped the engineer of the Pan Lighting answer the SMT machine knowledge and guided him to solve the program problem.

SMT Solution for Underwater Drone

Explore the Ultimate SMT Solution for Underwater Drones - Unmatched Performance and Precision. Discover cutting-edge technology and enhance your underwater drone's capabilities today. Dive into the future of subaquatic exploration with our advanced SMT solutions!

In Apir 2022, a company which is an IT and robot development company located in Russian has touched I.C.T and told us they needed an SMT Production Line for their new project: Underwater Drones. It wasn't long before we established trust and reached our first cooperation.

At the beginning, we knew little about underwater drones, and it was our first time to cooperate with this kind of customer. They were very patient and communicated with us many cases about underwater UAV. It reminded me of a video I once saw on TikTok where the safest thing for divers to do when they go to new waters is  to survey them with an underwater drone first. This will give you some idea of potential dangers ahead of time.

These underwater drones can be operated from a mobile phone to view underwater scenes. More sophisticated UAVs could be used to study seabed life, repair ship hulls, explore for Marine minerals, rescue underwater and much more.  With the increasing demand for underwater UAVs, there are many kinds of UAVs. The specific application of this customer's underwater uav is not told, but it must be very cutting-edge technology.

For this project, I.C.T engineers actively communicated with the customer about the actual product situation. Based on the PCB motherboard information provided by the customer and the planned capacity in the future, One Full-auto SMT Production Line has been choosed for Underwater Drone, Including Automatic Solder Paste Printer Machine, Online SPI, SMT Pick and Place Machine, reflow Oven Lyra622, Online AOI, NG/OK Unloader Machine, Conveyors etc.

Especially for the SMT Chip Mounter, we choose JUKI RS-1R for our customers, which can apply SMT to a wider range of components and placement speed can reach 47,000 CPH. The motherboard for underwater drones can be produced at full speed. It is estimated that an hour's board production is 90-120 pcs. The SMT line is also equipped with SPI and AOI with industrial grade high precision CCDS, which can greatly reduce the defect rate of the board.
