In recent years, the Huaxi TWS Optoelectronics Industrial Base in Guiyang city has been developing at a rapid pace. In the first five months of this year, its output value exceeded 60 million yuan ($8.27 million), and that number is expected to reach 150 million yuan in total for the year.
TWS primarily produces capacitive touch screens ranging from 1 to 110 inches in size, with applications in smartwatches, mobile phones, tablets, finance, healthcare, education, and other fields. So far, the Huaxi TWS Optoelectronics Industrial Base boasts five production lines engaged in mass production, with a sixth production line currently being debugged and expected to be operational in the first half of this year.
Reporters visited the production workshop of the Huaxi TWS Optoelectronics Industrial Base on June 6 and found that the number of workers was relatively small. Most of the work is automated, with some production areas having one worker overseeing 14 machines, thus improving production efficiency.
"For enterprises, technological innovation is the key to high-quality development and essential for developing new quality productive forces," said Chen Kabin, director of Guizhou TWS Optoelectronics Co.
This progress is largely due to the efforts of a professional technical team and significant R&D investments. Leveraging the talent of the Huaxi University City in Guiyang, the Huaxi TWS base has established a research and development team of over 500 people, assigning product process engineers to each production line. The base also consistently invests 5 percent of its annual revenue into R&D.
Thanks to consistent upgrades made to the production lines, Huaxi TWS's monthly production capacity has increased from 2 million units to 5 million units, and the product yield rate has surpassed 85 percent, far exceeding the industry average.
Due to the high product quality, Huaxi TWS secured many foreign trade orders this year. Luo Guangli, director of the production factory of Huaxi TWS, mentioned that these foreign orders are expected to bring in an annual output value of 60 million yuan for the enterprise.
