KYEC develo ed ovens for burn-in test services p

  • In-house burn-in ovens provide flexibility, custom tailored test services.

  • Our burn-in oven is able to offer testing under wide range of power/watts for products after one single test setup.

  • Our high-power burn-in oven employs the air-cooling technologies instead of the water-cooling used in the market available ovens, providing advantages of cost saving and easy maintenance.

KYEC expects to grow revenue from in-house test system

  • In general, 20 - 25% of KYEC’s revenue was generated by 1,200+ sets[(1) ] of in-house test systems and 270+ sets[(1)] of burn-in ovens installed on its shop floor. The decline of revenue from in-house tester in Q4’18 is due to the DLT merger.

  • We expects to grow in-house tester revenue by lateral deploying the test solution to various end applications with our customers.

  • Given its uniqueness in technical services and cost effective structure to customer, we plan to take advantages from this leading in-house capability against our peers at the market place.
