Exhibition Core Highlights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The show covers the full interconnection supply chain: new\u2011energy connectors, high\u2011voltage & high\u2011speed wire harnesses, processing machinery, tooling fixtures, testing systems and insulation auxiliary materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Product focus<\/strong>: Vehicle\u2011grade high\u2011voltage connectors, energy\u2011storage & PV connectors, 800V high\u2011voltage harnesses, automotive Ethernet harnesses, busbars and liquid\u2011cooled interconnection components for fast charging drew the biggest attention.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Manufacturing & testing<\/strong>: Wire stripping & crimping machines, custom harness assembly fixtures, continuity\u2011conductance test benches and visual inspection solutions were heavily in demand. Many harness factories are seeking flexible tooling to upgrade existing production lines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Technical forums<\/strong>: Hot\u2011topic sessions covered 800V platform safety, high\u2011speed signal integrity, regional\u2011modular harness architecture and localization of automotive\u2011grade interconnection solutions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Visitor profile<\/strong>: Key attendees include EV OEMs, energy\u2011storage integrators, harness assembly houses, connector manufacturers and equipment suppliers. Major concerns include high\u2011reliability component selection, production\u2011line automation and local\u2011supply\u2011chain substitution.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Main Industry Development Trends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    1. High\u2011voltage upgrade: 800V platform and liquid\u2011cooled solutions for ultra\u2011fast charging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    800V high\u2011voltage vehicle platforms are gaining larger market penetration. This pushes higher requirements for connectors and harnesses in terms of voltage resistance, temperature resistance and EMC performance. Liquid\u2011cooled connectors and liquid\u2011cooled harnesses become mainstream for 4C ultra\u2011fast charging applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Higher voltage brings stricter safety requirements: high\u2011voltage interlock protection, insulation performance and heat dissipation must be fully validated. Accordingly, custom harness fixtures and reliable conduction\u2011testing equipment are essential for quality assurance on production floors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. High\u2011speed interconnection driven by intelligent driving<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    With domain\u2011based electronic architecture widely adopted, automotive Ethernet and high\u2011speed connectors are growing rapidly. Modern harness systems carry not only power but also massive sensor and ADAS data. Shielding performance and low signal attenuation become critical technical thresholds for high\u2011speed harness manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Light\u2011weighting trend: aluminium\u2011for\u2011copper material transition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    To reduce vehicle weight and control material cost, aluminium\u2011for\u2011copper replacement keeps advancing across the industry. Core challenges lie in copper\u2011aluminium welding and anti\u2011corrosion treatment. Busbars and new\u2011type insulating materials are widely adopted to achieve weight reduction and cost optimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. Harness architecture shifts toward modularization & intelligence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Traditional distributed wiring is gradually replaced by regional modular harness designs, cutting cable quantity and assembly complexity. New\u2011generation harnesses are embedded with sensing functions to support real\u2011time fault diagnosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This transformation requires production lines to become more flexible. Custom assembly jigs, positioning fixtures and automated test stations are increasingly necessary for mixed\u2011model production. Labour\u2011intensive manual harness assembly is shifting toward digital and automated workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    5. Supply\u2011chain localization & global\u2011oriented capacity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Domestic manufacturers keep making breakthroughs in high\u2011voltage and high\u2011speed connector and harness sectors. Localization extends from core components to processing equipment, tooling fixtures, testing solutions and raw materials. Chinese interconnection\u2011solution suppliers are expanding business to global EV and energy\u2011storage markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
