Aluminium capacitor maker Lelon to ramp up capacity

Looking at the growing electrolytic capacitor market, aluminium capacitor maker Lelon Electronics is planning to ramp up capacity. To expand production, Leon is set to buy a range of production equipment from Mutsuki Polymer that is a fellow company from the same sector. The firm is investing NT$130 million (US$4.127 million) for this purpose.



Notably, Mutsuki Polymer has decided to discontinue the production of capacitors recently after the change in the management of the parent company, Feei Cherng Enterprise. This has given them an opportunity to sell of their equipment to Leon.

Mobile device sector is one of the leading end-users of aluminium capacitor and Lelon is planning to use the newly acquired equipment to produce V-chip capacitors to supply to the mobile device sector.

Presently, Lelon has a monthly production capacity of 35 million SMD (surface-mounted device) solid capacitors. As reported by a Chinese-language Commercial Times, once they make the purchase from Mutsuki Polymer, the firm will be able to roll out 60 million SMD capacitors a month.

As reported from the October 20 trading session, currently, the company's stock price remains at NT$40.25 on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TSE).
