MEMS, the first industrialized non semiconductor s

The first MEMS sensor production line of industrialized non semiconductor substrate materials in China is about to be born

at present, the annual demand of China's sensor market is billions of pieces, worth hundreds of billions of yuan. Facing such a huge market, domestic and foreign manufacturers are stepping up research and development and attacking the city strategically. Changsha is taking active actions to seize the development highland of intelligent manufacturing industry. Yesterday, Hunan Qitai Information Technology Co., Ltd. sensor IOT

with the development of science and technology, intelligent robots have gradually entered people's lives. As one of the hardware of robots, the market of sensors continues to expand with its development

it can help robots perceive the outside world. Just like the role of eyes, nose, ears and skin in the human body, sensors play a role in hardware to receive information from the outside world. It can bring touch and hearing to robots... As the basis of IOT, the sensor market has developed rapidly in recent years, ushering in the wind of great development. From watches and cars to high-speed trains, planes and ships, sensors have penetrated into people's production and life

at present, the annual demand of China's sensor market is billions of pieces, worth hundreds of billions of yuan. Facing such a huge market, domestic and foreign manufacturers are stepping up research and development and attacking cities and territories. Changsha is taking active actions to seize the development highland of intelligent manufacturing industry. Yesterday, the sensor IOT Industrial Park of Hunan Qitai Information Technology Co., Ltd. started construction in Liuyang manufacturing industrial base. The total investment of this project is 1billion yuan. It will build the first MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) sensor production line with industrialized non semiconductor substrate materials in China. The first phase of the project is expected to be completed in March next year, with an annual output of 2million high-end pressure sensors, with an annual output value of 5billion yuan. This is a new beginning for China's sensor industry

Liuyang construction of sensor IOT Industrial Park

located on a loess land in Yong'an, Liuyang, the construction workers have settled in. A new sensor IOT Industrial Park will be built here, with a total construction area of 23000 square meters, including chip main workshop, sensor packaging workshop and office and scientific research complex building. One year later, the high-end sensors made in Changsha will be sent from here to all parts of the country

sensor is called the peripheral nerve of IOT, which affects the development of interconnected society. The more developed the society, the higher the demand for sensors. "By 2030, the number of sensors used worldwide will soar from 3.5 billion in 2013 to more than 100 trillion, and people and the natural environment will be closely connected through sensors."

this is Jeremy Rifkin's bold guess, the author of the third industrial revolution and the zero marginal cost society

at present, about 40 countries in the world are engaged in the research, production and application development of sensors, with more than 6000 R & D institutions. Among them, the United States, Japan, Germany, Denmark and other countries have strong strength, with a wide range of products, a wide coverage, and a total market share of more than 60%, mastering the market dominance

according to industry statistics, the sales of sensitive components and sensors in China exceeded 120billion yuan in 2014; In 2015, the demand was about 65.29 billion, with a growth rate of more than 18%, and the sales exceeded 130 billion yuan

at present, there are more than 1700 enterprises and institutions engaged in the research, production and application of sensors in China, and the sensor products have reached 10 categories, 42 sub categories and more than 6000 varieties

gap

the output value of 100 enterprises is not as good as that of a foreign enterprise

however, although China's sensor market has developed rapidly, high-end sensor technology and technology have always been in the hands of foreigners

compared with Europe, the United States and Japan, China is backward in all aspects of the entire industry, manufacturing technology and packaging technology are more obvious, and the R & D level of complete sets of equipment, key parts and accessories is significantly backward. In addition, the quality of domestic sensors is unstable, making it difficult to enter the high-end industry. On the contrary, foreign sensors, after loading the load source, the signal is very stable and well received by the market

due to the technical gap, domestic sensor manufacturers mainly produce some medium and low-end sensor products. In the field of domestic automotive electronics production, one of the largest markets for sensors, 1billion sensors are required every year. Among them, high-end products basically rely on imports, and only some low-end sensors for measuring water temperature and oil temperature have been localized

competitiveness determines market value. At present, the market share of the top 100 Sensor Companies in China is not comparable to that of a foreign leading enterprise. Taking pressure sensors as an example, there are thousands of manufacturing enterprises across the country, but few of them exceed 500million yuan. As a leading sensor enterprise in foreign countries, its annual output value is more than US $10 billion

development

Qitai has mastered the core technology of high-end sensors

at present, it coincides with the major adjustment of industrial structure that China's domestic performance has not reached the requirements, and the high-end manufacturing industry has also ushered in the spring of development

after more than 10 years of efforts, Qitai information has overcome the key core technologies and processes in MEMS sensors, filled the domestic gap, and made the industrialization of high-end sensors with independent intellectual property rights, and put them into production in Liuyang manufacturing industrial base

"Qitai is engaged in the core hardware industry of sensors and is at the top end of the industrial chain. It is similar to the CPU of computers and also belongs to the category of characteristic integrated circuits." Wang Guoqiu, chairman of Hunan Qitai Information Technology Co., Ltd., is used to measure the deformation of the sample during the experiment. Professor said that the company will first build the first MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) sensor production line of industrialized non semiconductor substrate materials in China, and will gradually expand its production to an annual output of more than 10million high-end pressure sensors. In order to adapt to the development of IOT, they will also launch digital, network and intelligent sensors, Gao Ruiping, deputy director of the natural science foundation. After 8 to 10 years of efforts, Qitai information will be built into a professional IOT sensor company with a complete range of products, making it the leader of the Chinese industry and the first in the world

experts said that MEMS sensors are new sensors made by microelectronics and micromachining technology. Compared with traditional sensors, it has the characteristics of small volume, light weight, low cost, low power consumption, high reliability, suitable for mass production, easy integration and intelligent realization. At the same time, the feature size in the order of micron makes it possible to complete some functions that traditional mechanical sensors cannot achieve

noun

what is a sensor

it is a kind of detection device, which can feel the measured information and transform the detected information into electrical signals or other required forms of information output according to a certain law, so as to meet the requirements of information transmission, processing, storage, display, recording and control. It is the primary link to realize automatic detection and automatic control. There are many kinds of sensors, which have different applications in different products. To put it simply, there are gravity sensors, acceleration sensors, distance sensors, light sensors, three-axis gyroscopes, electronic compasses, etc. in the future, there are more likely to be heat sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, ultraviolet sensors, pressure sensors, etc. (source of this article: Huaxia Jingwei, please indicate the source for reprint)
