BEIJING, CHINA: Himfr.com, one of China's leading B2B search platforms with more than 30 B2B industry websites to its name, discusses the auto relay market demand.
Relays are a major electronic automotive component, and their application volume in the automobile is inferior only to electronic sensors. Car comfort and safety's continuous improvement will inevitably lead to demand for automotive relays rising.
Relays are an important electronic automotive component; they are widely used to control vehicle starters, pre-heating, air conditioning, lighting, fuel pumps, anti-theft devices, audio, communications, navigation, electric fans, cooling fans, electric windows, airbags, ABS, various instrumentation and the fault diagnosis system.
Their application in the automotive industry is second only to automotive electronic sensors. As people increase their requirements for car comfort in recent years, the usage for automotive relays has shown a rapid upward trend.
In recent years, as automotive electronics, electrical products and automotive relays have also been developing by leaps and bounds, the world's automobile production and sales of relays have seen an upward trend.
It is expected that over the next few years, automotive electronics will continue to enhance their level and the automotive industry's demand for automotive electronic and electrical appliances will also be increasing.
Automotive relays can be roughly divided into two categories: automotive relays and plug-in PCBs (printed circuit board). The plug-in vehicle assembly in the central control box with wiring harness is easy to install and replace. PCB relays do more for automotive electronics modules. Compared to plug-ins, it is smaller and has a lower cost. Market demand for automotive products, relays and developing miniaturization grows.
Himfr.com's analyst forecasts that the global demand for automotive relays in 2009 will reach around 2.3 billion units with the PCB automotive relay carrying about 55% of the share. As people gradually improve requirements for car comfort, the proportion will continue to increase.
At the same time, automotive consumers will demand more safety, comfort, entertainment and other ever-increasing requirements that car designers will have to improve or redesign through the existing automotive electronics and electronic circuit modules, creating new performance requirements for PCB relays.
