What Suzhou HYC Technology does

Suzhou HYC Technology Co., Ltd. is a Chinese industrial testing and inspection equipment manufacturer founded in June 2005 and headquartered in Suzhou Industrial Park, Jiangsu Province. The company was the first enterprise registered on the Shanghai STAR Market (Science and Technology Innovation Board) in 2019 under stock code 688001. It operates across six business divisions: Flat Panel Display (FPD) testing, Smart Wearable Devices (SWD) testing, Semiconductor (SEMI) testing, Electric Vehicle Electronics (EVE) testing, an Incubation Business (IB) covering biomedical pipetting workstations, and HYC Testing (HYCT) providing third-party calibration and reliability testing services.

The company's product portfolio spans the entire electronics manufacturing chain from wafer and chip level through module and finished product assembly. Core technologies include the T7600 series SoC test systems (supporting up to 4,608 digital channels with 0.1mV voltage and 1nA current precision), the PXIe modular test platform, full-line AMOLED flexible detection equipment (95 meters, 9 process stations), the G8.6 AMOLED TSP OS testing system (first domestically developed, 60 tons), and the proprietary HYCTOS software platform. The company holds over 1,500 patent applications and 1,000+ granted patents across display, semiconductor, and automotive testing domains.

HYC generates revenue primarily through one-time equipment sales of customized non-standard testing systems to enterprise customers, supplemented by professional after-sales services, calibration, and reliability testing through its HYCT subsidiary. The company employs a sales-led, "Big Customer Strategy" with direct field sales teams dedicated to each division, serving global consumer electronics leaders, Chinese semiconductor manufacturers, Korean and Japanese display panel makers, and global NEV OEMs. Global delivery is supported by wholly-owned subsidiaries in the USA, Vietnam, South Korea, Singapore, Japan, and Thailand, with total manufacturing footprint exceeding 250,000 square meters across Suzhou, Chengdu, and Changshu.
