【PCB Information Network】On February 1, it was reported that “The current situation of epidemic prevention and control remains severe and complex. The whole country is united in order to win this tough battle as soon as possible.”
From the soldiers who respond to orders and bravely take on heavy responsibilities, to the medical staff who work tirelessly to save lives; from the veteran party members working 14 hours a day on the front lines of epidemic prevention, to the hospital directors suffering from ALS yet steadfastly holding their posts… despite their different roles, everyone is striving to fulfill their responsibilities.
Among these resolute individuals in the face of the epidemic, there are also busy figures from the circuit board industry.
Shanghai Jiajietong Circuit Technology Co., Ltd. is a global leader in small-batch printed circuit board services.
With most employees having returned to their hometowns, the company’s CEO held an emergency mobilization meeting, recalling over 100 employees who had not yet left Shanghai. A special task force was established under the leadership of the chairman,and all team members worked around the clock to complete the basic circuit boards, which originally required 30 processes and a production cycle of 7 to 10 days, within 48 hours while ensuring quality and quantity. On January 23, all circuit boards were delivered overnight to Wuhan, and the handover was successfully completed on January 24.It is reported that these circuit boards will be used in infrared temperature measurement products.
According to informed sources, circuit board manufacturers such as Chongda Technology, Sihui Fuji, and Mutai Lai have also resumed work, accelerating the provision of circuit boards and components for medical equipment and infrared temperature measurement products needed for epidemic prevention.

In addition to fully supporting epidemic prevention on the production line, many circuit board companies are actively donating money and supplies. It is reported that Aoshikang donated 2 million RMB for epidemic prevention after the outbreak and actively procured necessary supplies for epidemic prevention to donate free of charge.
Due to Aoshikang’s rapid and effective procurement of practical supplies for epidemic prevention, many hospitals have issued purchase orders and requests for help to Aoshikang out of trust:
It is reported that Aoshikang is still actively seeking to gather supplies.
On the evening of January 31, in the program “News 1+1”, Wuhan Municipal Party Secretary Ma Guoqiang stated that to respond to such an epidemic, it is necessary to continuously expand resources (medical supplies, etc.) at all times; only in this way can we cope with the current situation.In this context, Zhongjing Electronics recently donated 5 sets of “Digital X-ray Imaging Systems” worth 3 million RMB produced by its affiliated company to the Hubei Charity Federation. This is a boost for Hubei.
In addition, Shunlian Circuit and Foster have also donated 1 million RMB and Nanyang Dingtai Gaoke donated 300,000 RMB, while Jiangnan New Materials donated 150,000 RMB to support the fight against the novel coronavirus.
Li Jilin, chairman of Jinlu Electronics, also quickly responded after the announcement of the acceptance of social donations of protective materials by the People’s Hospital of Qingyuan City, actively donating 10,000 masks to contribute to the city’s epidemic prevention efforts.
The labor union of Jiyuan Xinyang Group today issued a “Jiyuan Xinyang Anti-Epidemic Love Donation Initiative” to all units and all Xinyang family members, calling for a joint effort to contribute to the fight against the novel coronavirus epidemic.
Many circuit board companies have selflessly donated during this epidemic prevention battle, uniting together, all hoping to make various efforts to let the epidemic dissipate as soon as possible, and all hoping for our country to overcome difficulties soon.

Our reporter also paid special attention to the fact that on January 30, the State Council’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism for the New Coronavirus Pneumonia Epidemic issued an urgent notice to the people’s governments of various provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government, as well as the Ministry of Transport, regarding the need to ensure the resumption of production for infrared temperature detection instruments and supporting components.
According to this urgent notice, the people’s governments of various provinces (regions, cities) and the Ministry of Transport will include infrared temperature detection instruments and supporting components in the key material production and transportation guarantee work for epidemic prevention, helping enterprises to solve difficulties and problems encountered in production and operation in a timely manner.
However, most infrared temperature detection instrument manufacturers are facing shortages of raw materials, and due to the lengthy industrial chain, if any link encounters difficulties in resuming work, it will affect epidemic detection.
This outbreak occurred during the Spring Festival, when most personnel had already returned to their hometowns. For safety reasons, everyone is staying at home and not daring to move, which adds difficulty for related enterprises that need to gather employees to resume work.
In addition, local governments’ approval processes for enterprises to start work are another significant challenge. Local governments are very cautious about this and require multiple approvals, which is not conducive to the timely resumption of production for supporting component manufacturers.Many circuit board manufacturing companies have reported to our reporter that they are PCB suppliers for medical materials such as infrared temperature detection instruments, and they are eagerly hoping to resume work as soon as possible to supply related components and contribute to the epidemic prevention battle. They expressed understanding of the government’s cautious attitude during this special period and hope that relevant personnel will launch a centralized application platform for resuming work, allowing related companies to submit resumption applications uniformly and speeding up the resumption process.
At this moment
we are all moving in the same direction,
we believe that
we will definitely win this battle against the epidemic prevention.
Go China!
