The terminal block is one of the most widely used electronic components, widely used in computer, telecommunications, network communication, industrial electronics, transportation, aerospace, medical equipment and automobile industry, and other fields.
According to the data of China Electronic Components Industry Association, the world terminal market in 2006 exceeded 35 billion US dollars. The demand in North America is 10.2 billion US dollars, and that in China is 14.1 billion yuan. Data until 2018, the total demand for global terminals is expected to reach 56.5 billion US dollars
Throughout the development of China's connection industry, the development of the early domestic terminal industry is closely related to national defense construction. From 1950 to 1970, the production of terminals in China was mainly composed of enterprises affiliated to the Ministry of Electronics Industry and the Ministry of Aerospace Industry and local state-owned enterprises. The terminals produced were mainly used in radar equipment, communication equipment, navigation equipment, electronic measuring instruments and other electronic products. in the device. After 1980, with the gradual development of China's electronics industry, the production of terminals was gradually applied to consumer electronics products such as black and white/color TV sets. Since 1990, under the impetus of China's foreign investment policies and incentives, terminal companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong, the United States, Japan, and Europe have stepped up investment in mainland China. Almost all terminal manufacturers around the world, including internationally renowned terminal companies such as AMP, MOLEX, BERG, and AMPHENOL, have transferred their production bases to mainland China. The influx of foreign investment has directly led to the rapid development of China's terminal industry. At present, there are more than 600 enterprises engaged in terminal production and processing in China (more than half of which are foreign-funded enterprises), and the number of employees has reached 200,000.
According to relevant data, on May 4, 2018, the terminal block industry rose by 3.9%, reflecting the market's good expectations for its growth. From the 2018 annual reports and performance forecasts released by recently listed companies, it can be found that the performance of most companies in the fourth quarter of 2018 was better than market expectations, and the performance growth of most electronic component production and R&D companies in 2009 was better than that in 2016. Looking forward to the industry boom in 2019, from the perspective of March, the export of electronic components products still continues a good momentum.
At present, there are many types of terminal blocks, which are widely used. Many fields such as mobile phones, PCs, consumer electronics, automotive electronics, medical electronics, and industrial electronics are important downstream. From the perspective of the first quarter of 2018, the terminal demand for electronic components continues to increase, the terminal products are increasingly diversified, and the development prospects of the terminal block industry are more promising.
Due to the continuous increase in the mobile communication and Internet markets in my country's terminal block market, the terminals connected to it have also shown a good situation of continuous rise.
The development trend of today's electronics and informatization has created a broad space for the development of the connector industry. Due to the continuous transfer of manufacturing industries such as home appliances, electronic information products, automobiles, and mobile phones to China, China has become the world's largest manufacturing center for home appliances and information products. The output of consumer electronics, network design, and communication terminal products has grown rapidly. Therefore, intermediate products such as terminals The demand is growing rapidly, and China has become the fastest-growing market for terminals in the world.
With the increasing degree of industrial automation and stricter and more precise industrial control requirements, the amount of terminal blocks is gradually increasing.
