Global business information: Domestic quad-core tablet manufacturing simple


Although the tablet PC is not the first domestic IT vendors, but no doubt is to the domestic tablet have accesorios para tablet occupied a great share of the domestic flat-panel market. Apple iPad Tablet PC powerful attack from domestic Tablet PC industry remains unscathed, affordable product configuration updates fast undoubtedly it to overcome the opponent's magic weapon, quad-core is undoubtedly the recent focus of attention. Quad-core tablet production process is kind of how it? With 3 • 15 special interview in-depth domestic Quad-Core Tablet PC factory Quest igogo
        Quad-core research and development process is more difficult
Domestic quad-core Tablet PC manufacturers have adopted the upstream chip manufacturers packaged program, but it comes to circuit and system optimization and firmware revisions operation., Or yourself, and from the interview, we also understand that the manufacturers do not want to place undue reliance on upstream The chip manufacturers and chip optimization company, not to mention the 1000 yuan / day or more expensive support costs, time and effect can not be controlled by their own.
For quad-core tablet, the vendor told we can say is a race against time, because now we are doing the same thing, R & D for Rising Micro the RK3188 four core master Tablet, optimization and solve some small Bug, after all, Rising micro give limited support to get the final product shows excellent compatibility and smooth performance, pre-development is very important. And quad-core and dual-core, not only the circuit is more complex, and quad-core performance potential is not an easy thing to get the system to give full play to the quad-core R & D test vendors strength.
Moreover, during the visit vendors emotionally, and how to break the situation now is that we will try in the direction of the tablet market homogenization. Such as the five elements are being developed for the quad-core tablet new mold and the new UI, the Blue Devils for users seeking the ultimate chip solution, cool Rubik's quad-core products are also differentiated high specification accessories user experience ... but not quite so simple, such as the need to design a new look high mold costs of inputs, quad-core platform hardware development cycle in about 60 days (upstream chip manufacturers sets the development process of the Quad-Core Tablet program), and the software development is more time-consuming, and requires at least three months or longer from the project to launch.
        "Rome" is not a night built
Visit several factories, I saw a different factory, there are some gaps in production equipment and management or, of course, there is a great relationship and brand strength. But for the terms of the Tablet PC manufacturers hope to build the brand, in order to do the quad-core tablet only input device is not a small number.
For a simple example, the quad-core tablet chip components more than the dual-core, in order to produce a quad-core tablet the traditional dual Mounter efficiency is too low, then put into a highly efficient four-Mounter is is necessary to know that only such a device funding close to 2 million yuan, far from the kind of small-scale the cottage manufacturers can match.
In addition, for the installation of the touch screen quad-core tablet requirements, cottage manufacturers will be assembled in a conventional high-dust workshop environment, but to pay attention to the quality of the Tablet PC manufacturers will be in a dust-free workshop installation, before entering the operating plant, the workers also need to channel dust after Airshower maximum extent avoid between the touch screen and the LCD because dust and reduce product quality (such as the crossline Patriot N10 screen and casing gorilla glass between the presence of dust particles).
Moreover, in order to product configuration and compatibility advantage, have to invest a lot of money upfront to buy the main chip, LCD screen. No capital investment, the manufacturers always other manufacturers can only choose to pick the remaining parts, not only the product configuration update slow, and each small bulk purchases can easily lead to a product compatibility issues, because of the different batches of the same specifications as accessories if production can lead to differences between the products, shipping speed quad flat and sales will impact every full compatibility testing.
        Relatively high degree of automation of the production process
Compared to the production process and dual-core quad-core Tablet PC, although there are some tablet android 4.0 differences, but most of the process is still the same, we use the well-known domestic Quad-Core Tablet PC's production process for everyone to interpret.
The first step: the production of circuit boards. First placed in the circuit board solder paste smearing pretreatment equipment, and then into the high-speed Mounter to mount electronic components, due to the relatively small volume of Tablet PC PCB board, we see in the pipeline circuit board has pieced together by the two boards, circuit board production after the completion of the cut to separate the two.
Similar to the and many IT plant's production scenarios, Tablet PC Chip placement machine to complete the circuit board after the completion of the patch also need access to the curing treatment in the reflow furnace, the circuit element is firmly soldered to the circuit board on. In order to ensure the quality of the circuit board out from the reflow oven manual visual inspection, to find those welding quality, but off the electronic components and avoid its flow into the next process. If double soldering circuit boards, the need to repeat once the above operation.
Step 2: welding interface and peripheral accessories. After the last step of the operation, the main chip, memory, flash memory particles surrounding the core components welding is completed, the next needs to be soldered USB, 3.5mm headphone jack, volume switch button and the card readers and other electronic components. also welded antenna and speaker, and prone to fracture the glue joints to reinforce treatment igogo
Step 3: Install the screen and touch screen. We see at the production site, the screen overall components (including border gorilla glass screen, LCD screen, most of the flat-panel touch screen and LCD together) installation and production of the part of the circuit are not in conflict, simultaneously. Just for a focus on the quality of flat-panel manufacturers, required to complete the screen the whole assembly in the clean room assembly complete tape sealing means also need to use dust-proof operation to prevent the use for some time after the dust into the LCD screen and large gorilla glass between the impact of use.
        Step 4: Install the battery, for final assembly. After completing the above steps, batteries, circuit boards tablets baratas and related components fixed in the bottom cover of the Tablet PC, after connecting the cable screen components and fuselage fixed at the production process of the Tablet PC is basically completed the follow-up to be The thing to do is to write the software system and detect qualified packaging factory.
