In 2018, the price of resistors and capacitors has risen "in turn". Power companies are carrying "two big mountains"
At the beginning of 2018, the LED industry began to show "not calm." When the industry made plans for 2018, the electronic components such as resistors and capacitors gave the "first shot" and took the lead in launching the "first shot" of the LED industry price increase in 2018.
It is well known that the resistor acts as a voltage divider in the series circuit and acts as a shunt in the shunt resistor; the electrolytic capacitor usually functions as a Power Supply filter, decoupling, signal coupling and time constant setting in the power supply circuit or the intermediate frequency and low frequency circuits. DC and other functions.
Therefore, resistors and capacitors are indispensable electronic components for LED power supplies. Yang Dong, general manager of Zhangfei Power, told Gaogong LED, “In the overall cost of power supply, the ratio of resistance is not large, at around 3%; but the capacitor accounts for 10% of the material cost, and this year’s increase has exceeded 100%, which is equal to The power supply gross profit is directly reduced by 10%, so the material cost pressure is relatively large."
Chip resistor manufacturers increase prices "one after another"
On December 26, 2017, the leading manufacturer of resistance faucets announced the general thick film resistor products (RC series), the size from 0201, 0402, 0603, 0805 to 1206; large-size thick film resistor products (RC series), size from 1210, Stop the order at 1218, 2010 to 2512. The industry believes that the action of the National Giant to suspend the order is equivalent to the capacity to enter the "rational" state, the product delivery period is inevitable, and the price increase is already on the string.
Sure enough, in 2018, Wang Quan, Guojuzi Guoyi, Guangyi Technology, Lizhi Electronics and other resistance device manufacturers have adjusted prices for some products.
On January 2nd, Taiwan's original resistance manufacturer Wang Quan increased its partial series of resistance products by 15%.
According to the announcement of Wangquan, due to the continuous increase of raw materials and packaging materials, the company faces enormous cost pressure. In order to continue to provide better service to customers, Wangquan must make price adjustments for the following types: 1,0402 0603 0805 1206 Series chip resistors, the price increased by 15%; 2, the price will be effective immediately after the upgrade.
On January 4th, passive component manufacturer Guangsheng Technology also issued a notice on the price adjustment of thick film resistors, due to the substantial increase in the cost of thick film resistor materials (package, paste, plating materials, ceramic substrates), including CR0603 0805 The price of the 1206 package chip resistor will increase by 10% based on the previous price.
On January 9, Lizhi Electronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. also sent a product price adjustment notice to customers. According to the notice, due to the continuous increase in raw material prices, the company's operating costs will increase, and the company's resistance products will increase by 15% according to the specifications.
On January 10th, Guoyi Company Guoyi issued a notice on the price adjustment of the chip resistors. The announcement letter stated that in response to factors such as the continuous appreciation of the exchange rate, the continuous increase of raw materials and labor costs, and many other considerations, Guoyi decided from 2018. Beginning on January 10th, the unit price adjustment was made for new orders for the following product items, and new orders were accepted.
1. General thick film resistor products (RC series), sizes from 0402, 0603, 0805, to 1206;
2, large-size thick film resistor products (RC series), size from 1210, 1218, 2010, to 2512.
The prices of the above items are increased by +15%-+20%, accounting for about 45% of the total resistance.
According to the high-tech LED inspection data, Guoyi's RC series thick film resistors are commonly used in notebooks, tablets, LED lighting, home appliances, audio and video equipment.
In fact, it is no accident that the resistance manufacturers have "joined" the price increase. On the one hand, since the second half of 2017, ceramic substrates with important materials for electrical resistance have been affected by factors such as the expansion of production and the strong market demand for vehicles. The supply gap of large-sized ceramic substrates has reached 10%, and the supply of ceramic substrates of other sizes has also become tense. At the same time, the price of palladium materials required for ceramic substrates continues to rise, and the price of ceramic substrates is rising.
On the other hand, since 2017, the environmental storms that have swept across the country have caused many manufacturing companies to be forced to shut down or rectify or limit production, resulting in tight supply capacity.
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are "involved in the price increase"
Affected by environmental protection policies and forced to raise prices, not only resistance, aluminum electrolytic capacitors have also recently increased prices.
On January 10, Nichicon Electronic Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Nijikang") announced the price increase announcement for aluminum electrolytic capacitors. According to the announcement, global demand for electronic components has resumed since 2017. As raw material suppliers, including aluminum, have announced price increases, Nikicon has been unable to digest all price increases despite many measures.
The price increase products are mainly all types of pin type and screw type aluminum electrolytic capacitors, and the price increase is 5%. The adjustment announcement will take effect from February 1, 2018.
According to the person in charge of Yongming Capacitor, "In fact, aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufacturers have long started to secretly increase prices, and the overall increase is around 15%. The main environmental management is strict, small and medium-sized raw materials enterprises are closed down, and large manufacturers are partially rectified, resulting in The raw materials are tight."
However, other domestic aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufacturers have not yet raised their price plans. The person in charge of the yellow gem also told Gaogong LED, "The yellowstone has not yet increased its price. If the material further rises, we will discuss the countermeasures with suppliers and customers for the survival of the company."
The rising price of raw materials affects the "neural" of power companies
The successive price increases of components such as chip resistors and aluminum electrolytic capacitors have really affected the “neural†of many power supply companies, especially indoor small and medium power supply companies.
Benefiting from the popularity of LED lighting, the LED medium and small power supply for indoor functional lighting has achieved great development in the early stage. A number of well-known companies such as Igor, Kegu Power, Leifford, Ochs, and Dark Energy have emerged in China. Power supply company. However, with the increasing number of companies entering the market, the competition in the small and medium power supply market is unprecedentedly fierce.
The fierce market competition environment has prompted power supply manufacturers to constantly adjust prices, and the price of finished power products has bottomed out. Faced with the increase in resistance and electrolytic capacitors, Li Chengwei, director of Kegu Power Marketing, said, “At present, the gross profit margin of small and medium-sized power supplies is not high, and power companies are basically unable to self-digest the cost pressure brought by the price increase of materials.â€
Ke Jianjun, general manager of Shenzhen Bilda Technology Co., Ltd. also said to Gaogong LED: "The total cost of resistors and capacitors in the company's conventional power supply is less than 10%, which is not a big proportion in emergency power supply. The price increase is not small for the company. The burden, however, is unlikely to increase the price of power products, and power companies can only further reduce profit margins."
However, the price increase of this round of resistance and capacitance did not affect all power companies, Shenzhen Dark Energy Power Co., Ltd. was not affected by the price increase. Mr. Peng, chairman of Dark Energy, told Gaogong LED that the company has signed a full-year procurement contract with the resistor-capacitor supplier to ensure that the stable price of the supplier is dark-energy and quality-supplied, and the introduction of AI Balance the pressure on the price of peripheral components.
Today, raw material prices and labor costs continue to rise, and a small number of small power companies are unable to support and fail. Under the extremely fierce competition in the LED lighting industry, the rising prices of raw materials such as resistors and capacitors have brought more severe tests to power supply companies.
