Xiaomi Foxconn Factory Tour: Take you to explore the production story of Xiaomi Mi 9

On April 2, Xiaomi invited media friends to visit the Foxconn Technology Industrial Park in Langfang. In Langfang Foxconn, there is the main production line of Xiaomi 9. Most of the Xiaomi 9 mobile phones are produced in Langfang Foxconn. Here we see the entire assembly process of the Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phone. The first thing we saw was the SMT production line of Xiaomi 9, which is where mobile phone motherboards are processed. The components on the mobile phone are welded to the PCB motherboard. Here, almost all the work is done using automated manipulators. The master workers are mainly responsible for inspecting and adding raw materials. Mobile phone chips, resistors, capacitors and other components are placed on the motherboard by the robot according to the specified coordinates, and then go through the reflow oven, and the entire motherboard is processed. The robot can place and weld chips very accurately and quickly. One production line can produce 8,000 mobile phone motherboards a day, and 10 such SMT production lines are produced at the same time at Foxconn No. 1 in Langfang. Then we visited the assembly workshop of the Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phone. The main board, screen, camera, earpiece, battery, wireless charging coil and other components of the Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phone were assembled into the mobile phone. During this process, the assembly process was constantly tested. Successfully, the installed components can work smoothly. The last step is to install the glass back cover of the mobile phone onto the fuselage. It also relies on precision manipulators to accurately position the back cover and fit it tightly onto the fuselage. Then the mobile phone system is written into the assembled mobile phone. At this point, the assembly of a Xiaomi 9 mobile phone is basically completed. The assembled mobile phone does not leave the factory directly, but undergoes rigorous stress testing. In the aging test workshop, the assembled mobile phone will simulate heavy use by users to test whether there are software and hardware on the mobile phone. problem. Products that pass the test basically have no software problems. After that, the mobile phone will undergo p2i treatment, which is to cover the surface of the mobile phone with a nano-scale coating to make the surface of the mobile phone hydrophobic, which can prevent liquid from entering the mobile phone, thereby achieving a splash-proof level. The entire p2i processing process lasts 3 hours. The last production line is the packaging of mobile phones. When the mobile phones arrive here, the screen, camera and other functions will be tested for the final time. Then stick the network access permit on the back of the fuselage, stick the barcode, affix the screen film, and you can pack the box. After a series of complex processes, a Xiaomi 9 mobile phone is assembled. These finished Xiaomi Mi 9s will be temporarily stored in the factory's temporary storage area, and will then be sent to various sales channels. The person in charge of the factory said that the Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phone sales are so popular that the produced mobile phones do not need to be put into storage at all, there will be forklifts to move the goods away. As of the end of March, a total of 1.5 million Xiaomi Mi 9 series mobile phones have been shipped, of which more than 1 million Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phones have been shipped. The person in charge of Xiaomi said that the foundries are now working overtime to produce mobile phone products to provide sufficient supply for the upcoming Xiaomi Rice Noodle Festival. After the factory tour, Qiao Tonghu, senior manager of OEM mobile phone delivery management in the production management department of Xiaomi Group, and Xu Jieyun, general manager of the public relations department of Xiaomi Group, accepted questions from the media. What everyone is most concerned about is the production capacity of Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phone. The person in charge of Xiaomi said that the problems encountered in the early production are from two aspects. First, the supply of camera modules is relatively small, which limits the overall production capacity. Then the proficiency of the workers and masters is constantly improving. By mid-March, the problem of limiting production capacity has gradually been resolved, and Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phones will have enough goods to satisfy consumers. Xiaomi 9 is assembled and produced by three domestic mobile phone OEMs, including Langfang Foxconn, Nanjing Inventec, and Xi'an BYD. Among them, Langfang Foxconn is responsible for most of the production, and Nanjing Inventa has built a dust-free workshop, mainly responsible for the production of the transparent exclusive version. Xi'an BYD has just started the assembly and production of Xiaomi Mi 9 mobile phones.

?By visiting the production line of Xiaomi 9, I realized that Xiaomi and Langfang Foxconn are not just OEMs, but also very close partners.

At the production site, you can see Xiaomi’s logo, slogans, or Mi Rabbit patterns on the walls everywhere. Moreover, we also saw a lot of production and processing equipment provided by Xiaomi on the production line. Only with the close cooperation between Xiaomi and Foxconn can products enter the market smoothly.

At the same time, we have also seen Xiaomi’s strict requirements for product quality. The person in charge said that Xiaomi is stepping up its time to optimize the testing process and using robots to improve testing efficiency, which can not only increase production capacity, but also maximize production capacity. It is possible to ensure that every mobile phone delivered to users is a product with guaranteed quality.

?Now, through the continuous efforts of Xiaomi and Foxconn, Xiaomi 9’s production capacity has achieved very significant results. While successfully completing the target of shipping 1 million units in the first month, Xiaomi Mi 9 is also stepping up production in two shifts, and it should be able to meet consumer purchasing needs.
