There are key differences between domestic and foreign dispensing machines, primarily in technology, cost, applications, and innovation.
Technology: Foreign dispensing machines generally excel in control systems (such as motion control, vision recognition, and precision metering), software algorithms (such as trajectory planning, glue volume control, and image processing), as well as hardware quality and stability. They offer higher precision and repeatability, especially in high-precision applications. While domestic products are gradually closing the gap, there's still room for improvement in some key technologies.
Cost: Domestic dispensing machines have a significant price advantage, offering higher cost-effectiveness, making them more popular among small and medium-sized enterprises and cost-sensitive applications.
Applications: Foreign dispensing machines dominate high-end applications requiring high precision, high speed, and high stability (such as semiconductor packaging and high-end electronics manufacturing). Domestic dispensing machines hold a larger market share in low-to-mid-range applications (such as consumer electronics, LED lighting, and general industrial manufacturing).
Innovation: Foreign companies place greater emphasis on technological innovation and R&D investment, continuously launching new technologies and products. Domestic companies have been increasing R&D efforts in recent years, gradually shifting from initial imitation to independent research and development, and have achieved some breakthroughs.
In summary, domestic and foreign dispensing machines have their respective strengths. Companies should comprehensively consider their own needs when making a choice. As domestic technology continues to advance, the gap is gradually narrowing.
