Factory Tour: Manufacturing Excellence
Beauty STC’s manufacturing facility in Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, represents a significant investment in modern LED production capacity. Strategically located within the Pearl River Delta manufacturing hub, the Jiangmen factory spans approximately 10,000 square meters and is purpose-built for high-volume, precision LED lighting assembly with a strong emphasis on quality control systems. This facility serves as a primary production center for the company’s range of flexible and rigid LED light strips, including specialized white light products.
The surface mount technology (SMT) production lines form the core of the factory’s capability. We operate multiple high-speed Yamaha YS24 and YSM20 SMT placement machines, configured across eight dedicated production lines. These machines are calibrated for the precise handling and placement of ultra-small 0201 and 0402 LED components, critical for achieving high-density white LED strip designs with consistent lumen output and color uniformity. The SMT lines are fully automated with real-time SPI (Solder Paste Inspection) and AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) systems integrated after each critical stage, ensuring solder joint integrity and component placement accuracy before the boards proceed to reflow soldering. This setup supports a combined daily output capacity exceeding 100,000 meters of LED strip, with changeover protocols optimized for efficient batch production of various white light strip specifications.
