OptoFidelity opened manufacturing and assembly facility in Shenzhen, China

Optofidelity team, its partners, and CYG management celebrated the opening of OptoFidelity’s factory on Thursday January 18th, 2018 in Guang Ming Hi-Tech Park, Shenzhen, China. The investment consists not only of manufacturing and assembly facilities, but also a multiplying OptoFidelity engineering presence in China.

OptoFidelity opened its Chinese subsidiary, OptoFidelity High-tech (Shenzhen) Ltd. in 2016. In the few months since opening, our capabilities have grown significantly. By the end of 2016, OptoFidelity hired sales and support teams to serve its customers in China. By end of 2017 OptoFidelity has delivered over 3000 test robots to smart-device-manufacturing centers around the country. OptoFidelity was acquired by CYG in August 2017.

OptoFidelity held an opening ceremony for its first China factory on Thursday, January 18th 2018 in Guang Ming Hi-Tech Park, north of Shenzhen City, in the heart of Pearl River Delta smart technology hub. The event was hosted by the OptoFidelity management team. Guests included partner companies and CYG. OptoFidelity has now totally new manufacturing and engineering capabilities in China. We continue to grow as independent Finnish company powered by CYG (ChangYuan Group 600525.SS) Asian capital and knowledge resources.

- I´m really impressed how fast we were able to push this investment through, says Pertti Aimonen, CEO of OptoFidelity. We started the investment in September and now I´m happy to see the first deliveries going out to customers in January. Big thanks belong to the local team; along with support from our parent Company CYG. Without CYG support, we wouldn’t have the opening ceremony today, Mr. Aimonen concludes.

OptoFidelity’s new China operations include not only a world class manufacturing and assembly facility, but also a strong design and manufacturing team. China operations include OptoFidelity customer support teams and engineering teams with strong knowledge of electrical, mechanical and software design for testing solutions. The total headcount of OptoFidelity China is 50 employees.
