Connfly Electronic

What Connfly Electronic does

Connfly Electronic (宁波晨翔电子有限公司) is a privately-held Chinese manufacturer of electronic connectors and cable assemblies, founded in 2006 and headquartered in Cixi, Ningbo, Zhejiang. The company operates a single integrated manufacturing campus that combines in-house mold development (CNC, EDM, grinding), dust-free production workshops, injection molding, and press workshops, with comprehensive in-house testing equipment including CCD, X-RAY, tensile strength, and IR reflow machines. Its portfolio spans roughly 40 product series covering pin headers and sockets, D-SUB, USB (including Type-C), HDMI, FPC/FFC, IC sockets, aviation plugs, waterproof connectors, spring/Pogo pins, wafer connectors, automotive connectors (IATF 16949 certified), and emerging new-energy lines such as solar PV connectors and junction boxes, energy storage connectors, blade battery connectors, and EV/EV battery-swap charging connectors.

The company's customer base is distributed across multiple industrial verticals: smart meters, LED lighting, wireless networks and communication terminals, industrial equipment (including waterproof and oil-resistant applications), personal mobility vehicles, elevators, automotive electronics, financial systems, and increasingly marine electric vessels. Notable named customers include Wuhan Weimai New Energy Power, a subsidiary of China Shipbuilding Industry's 712 Research Institute, which visited the company in May 2026 to evaluate electric-vessel communication and power connector supply. Sales are executed through four regional direct-sales teams (South, North, East, and Central China) supported by a Taobao storefront for sample orders, with a multilingual website (13 languages) suggesting international buyer interest, though active geographies are currently domestic.

Revenue is generated through B2B hardware sales of standard catalog connector series and custom cable assemblies. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled via direct sales-team quotation. The company operates without disclosed external funding, M&A activity, or institutional investors, and holds ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001/OHSAS18001, IATF 16949, CE, FCC, UL, and RoHS 2.0 certifications. Three product launches between April 2023 and September 2025 — solar PV connectors, data cables, and EV charging connectors — together with the 2026 electric-vessel partnership, indicate a deliberate strategic shift toward higher-value new-energy and transportation electrification applications.
