Henger Showcases Breakthrough Plasma Technology at 2025 THECA Show
September 22, 2025 | HengerEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The 2025 Thailand Electronic Circuit Asia Exhibition (THECA Show) was successfully convened from August 20 to 22 at the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre (BITEC).
Zhuhai Henger Microelectronic Equipment Co., Ltd. delivered a particularly notable presentation at this exhibition, comprehensively demonstrating the company's latest advancements in the field of high-end plasma equipment. These included the industry's pioneering "PTH Inline Plasma Descumming Processing System." The company also indicated to professional attendees that its products have now been deployed in overseas markets, including Southeast Asia and North America. Leveraging leading technological capabilities and a well-defined international market strategy, the company attracted significant attention from a substantial number of professional visitors and potential partners.
During the event, Ms. Tang, Head of Overseas Business, granted an exclusive interview to the renowned financial media Nikkei Asia. She disclosed in the discussion: "In recent years, alongside the accelerated regional restructuring of the global electronics industry chain, several established enterprises with manufacturing operations in Southeast Asia have submitted their preliminary annual production capacity plans to us. It is anticipated that they will procure substantial quantities of plasma descumming equipment from Henger. These systems will be primarily deployed for capacity expansion projects at their production bases in Thailand and Vietnam."
Ms. Tang further emphasized that with the increasing adoption of high-speed materials (such as PTFE and modified epoxy resins), plasma surface treatment has become a critical process step for ensuring production yield. This trend not only reflects the growing recognition of plasma descumming equipment as essential for the strategic planning of global PCB enterprises, but also fully demonstrates the enhanced brand influence and technological competitiveness of China's high-end manufacturing equipment in the international market. Henger remains committed to deepening its service networks and technical support systems across Southeast Asia, North America, and other overseas regions, facilitating customers in achieving production capacity upgrades and technological innovation.

The Chemical Connection: Onshoring PCB Production—Daunting but Certainly Possible
10/22/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn the past year, several potential customers, concerned about the impending application of tariffs on incoming goods, have asked us what it would take to bring their circuit board production back to the U.S. While they also had other considerations, the threat of new tariffs was the tipping point that started them thinking about the economic advantages of bringing their manufacturing back onshore. It might be interesting to relate our experiences with two of those inquiries.
