The Defond Group is this weeks focus for SOE. In this episode, we take a tour of one of Defond’s factories, just outside of Shenzhen China.

Defond started out as a switch manufacturer in Hong Kong, but moved to China to provide a large array of manufacturing services including SMT, Wave soldering, PCB assembly, Plastic injection, Metal stamping, Electro-plating, Winding, Laser cutting and printing. They employ the concept of LEAN manufacturing (to minimize waste), Process automation, Process qualification and control, Supply chain management and have a complete testing solution to certify products for:
UL61058 / STP1054
MFI license (wireless communications)
RF equipment (functional tester)
UL / IEC certification expertise

The tour group experienced a fantastic range of manufacturing processes and learned a great deal about Defond’s ethics, accessibility and business practices. Some of our group had never been inside a factory before so this first factory tour was a huge “eye opener” and a taste of things to come.
