SuZhou Menhow Upgrades to Automated Multi-Lamination Equipment: 75% Efficiency Surge in 2025

In 2025, the Electronics Division of Suzhou Menhow officially introduced a new generation of automated multi-lamination equipment, marking a major leap in its smart manufacturing transformation. This upgrade has not only revamped the precision lamination process but also significantly enhanced operational convenience and efficiency for workers, enhanced the competitiveness of the membrane switch.

A new-generation multi-lamination machine is revolutionizing electronic component assembly, supporting the precise bonding of diverse parts—including metal dome, light guide films, QR code labels, and so on. While enabling simultaneous lamination of up to 9 different component types in a single workflow. A spider robot, equipped with suction cup sets, executes lamination tasks with micron-level accuracy. The circular conveyor system comprising a double-layer conveyor and two lifting conveyors works with custom carriers to enable simultaneous product positioning and directional transfer, boosting material flow efficiency by over 300%.

The efficiency gains are striking: traditionally, 8 workers were needed for manual lamination, which suffered from human errors and inconsistent output. Now, only 2 employees handle material loading and unloading, cutting labor costs by 75%. Lamination efficiency has risen by 75%, while yield rate has jumped from 88% (manual) to over 99.5%, eliminating issues like misalignment and wrinkles.

The equipment’s intelligent design has significantly lowered operational barriers and management complexity. Operators no longer need to patrol the line and they can track real-time data (equipment status, production progress) via a touchscreen. When anomalies occur such as material shortages in a feeder or slight positioning deviations, the system immediately triggers a red light flash and audible alert, while popping up detailed graphic prompts (e.g., “Material shortage in Feeder A – replace within 5 minutes” or “Position deviation detected – calibrate camera No.2”). This reduces average fault-solving time from 40 minutes (manual troubleshooting) to under 5 minutes.

Suzhou Menhow division head noted this upgrade aligns with its smart manufacturing strategy. Plans are underway to fully automate core processes by end-2025, leveraging targeted equipment upgrades to balance efficiency, quality, and cost, and stay ahead in the fiercely competitive in multiple fields such as automotive electronics, consumer electronics and industrial control.
