The PCB industry has developed for many years, but the subsequent growth in recent years is weak and not optimistIC. It is reported that more than 10% of China's PCB enterprises disappear every year, which is closely related to the changes in the industrial structure brought about by the development of the times. Only through reform can the PCB industry survive in the reality of fierce competition.

As we all know, PCB is a high pollution, high energy consumption, high investment, labor-intensive industry. In the transition period, enterprises face many problems. In terms of environmental protection, due to the continuous improvement of national requirements for environmental protection in recent years, more and more strict policies have been formulated, which has increased the environmental pressure on enterprises; In terms of cost, we should not only face the continuous rise of international raw material prices under the environment of high inflation, but also face the sharp rise in workers' wage costs brought about by the implementation of the new labor law; In addition to the appreciation of RMB, the rise of low-cost manufacturing in Southeast Asian countries and many other external factors, many low-end manufacturers in the PCB industry have even reached the critical point of survival.

The various cost control methods adopted by many enterprises are nothing more than reducing wages and saving raw material money, but these saved costs and expenses are very limited and cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Some enterprises may also lose their core competitiveness due to lack of investment in R&D and MARKeting. Although some enterprises have begun to transfer to the central and western regions to reduce labor costs in consideration of the cost problem, in fact, they have increased other costs in design, research and development, and logistics, which is not cost-effective in the long run.

The popularization of information technology and software application has promoted the development of various industries. The emergence of "Internet plus" thinking has subverted the industrial structure of some industries and expanded people's vision. This thought was first introduced into the service industry, and then extended to the industrial production field. Of course, this thinking has also brought a spring breeze to the PCB industry.

Although many PCB enterprises still choose to believe in the traditional PCB design, production, sales, operation and management mode, and there are still many doubts about the Internet, so they are in a wait-and-see state. However, some enterprises have tried the water first, combined PCB with the Internet, and created a new PCB cloud platform in product design; In terms of engineering operation, realize the whole process automation of Internet management; In terms of sales and management, Internet thinking is dominant. Of course, some of these enterprises have also achieved great success.
