What uni trend technology does

Uni-Trend Technology (China) Co., Ltd. is a Chinese test and measurement instrument manufacturer founded in 1988 and headquartered in Dongguan, publicly listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange STAR Market under ticker 688628 since 2021. Operating under the UNI-T brand, the company designs and manufactures digital multimeters, clamp meters, oscilloscopes, waveform generators, spectrum analyzers, DC power supplies, and thermal imaging cameras (handheld, smartphone-attached, and monocular form factors). Its flagship UTi760X Expert Thermal Imager integrates AI visual analysis, a 640x512 super-resolution infrared detector, a modular interchangeable lens system, and AI voice control. R&D is distributed across three Chinese centers in Dongguan, Chengdu, and Changzhou.

The company serves a horizontal set of professional end markets including electrical and HVAC installers, solar and photovoltaic professionals, industrial maintenance technicians, building diagnostics, and outdoor/hunting users, with specialized product lines for renewable energy measurement (e.g., UT197PV, UT673PV+). The commercial model is channel-led: hardware sales flow through a network of 600+ authorized distributors across more than 80 countries, supplemented by regional sales branches in Germany (Augsburg), the United States (Bellingham WA and Fort Worth TX), and Hong Kong, plus direct quote-based enterprise sales and a US e-commerce storefront. Manufacturing is split between China (Dongguan HQ plus the 50,000+ sqm Heyuan facility completed in 2021) and Vietnam (Bac Ninh Province), supporting supply chain diversification and faster regional delivery. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and uses a "Get a Quote" model targeted at B2B professional buyers.
