The market demand for horn capacitors surges, Anhong Electronics Expands Production to Meet the demands of new energy and industrial upgrading

With the rapid development of the global new energy industry, industrial automation and high-end power equipment market, Snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitors, due to their high reliability, large capacity and strong withstand voltage characteristics, are embracing a new round of growth opportunities. As a leading domestic manufacturer of aluminum electrolytic capacitors, Guangdong Anhong Electronics Co., Ltd. recently announced the expansion of its production capacity of horn capacitors to meet the strong demand in fields such as photovoltaic inverters, electric vehicle charging piles, and industrial frequency converters.

The horn capacitor has significant advantages and has become the preferred choice for high-end applications

The Snap-in Type capacitor adopts a unique pin fixing design and features strong shock resistance, stable installation, and excellent heat dissipation. It is particularly suitable for high-power and high-stability application scenarios. Compared with ordinary electrolytic capacitors, its characteristics such as high-temperature resistance (105℃ to 125℃) and long service life (over 2000 to 5000 hours) make it a core component in fields such as new energy power generation, rail transit, and medical equipment.

The technical director of Anhong Electronics said, "In recent years, the usage of horn capacitors in 800V high-voltage fast charging piles and energy storage converters (PCS) has increased by more than 30%. Customers have put forward higher requirements for the product's ability to withstand ripple current and low-temperature performance." By optimizing the electrolyte formula and shell structure, we have reduced the ESR of the new generation of products by 20% and extended their lifespan to over 8,000 hours.

Anhong Electronics is stepping up production capacity and expanding its global market presence

In response to the rapid growth of market demand, Anhong Electronics has invested 5 million yuan to upgrade its horn capacitor production line and add automated testing equipment, increasing its annual production capacity to 60 million units. The company currently offers a full range of horn capacitors with a voltage range of 25V to 500V and a capacity of 10μF to 33,000μF. Additionally, it has launched customized models that are high-frequency resistant and shock-resistant for photovoltaic inverters.

Our horn capacitors have passed UL, CE and RoHS certifications, and are supplied in bulk to leading domestic new energy enterprises. At the same time, they are exported to Southeast Asia and European markets. The sales director of Anhong Electronics disclosed that the company is collaborating with multiple automotive electronics manufacturers to develop automotive-grade horn capacitors to address the technological trend of 800V high-voltage platforms in electric vehicles.

The industry has a broad prospect and domestic substitution is accelerating

According to data from market Research firm QY Research, the global market size of horn capacitors exceeded 1.5 billion US dollars in 2023 and is expected to reach 2.5 billion US dollars by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of approximately 7.2%. With China's leading position in the photovoltaic and energy storage fields, domestic Niu Jiao capacitors, with their advantages of high cost performance and short delivery cycle, are gradually replacing Japanese brands.

Expert Opinion

Driven by new energy and Industry 4.0, the technological iteration of horn-shaped capacitors will continue to accelerate. Enterprises need to focus on high voltage resistance, low loss and miniaturization in order to seize the high-end market. - Comment by an analyst from the China Electronic Components Industry Association (CECA).
