# Mainland's Largest Automotive-Grade Chip Testing Platform "Ink Bottle" Commences Operations with Total Investment of RMB900M

AWINIC (688798.SH) -0.480 (-0.690%) announced that the "Ink Bottle" automotive-grade laboratory testing center located in the Lingang New Area has officially commenced operations. The center has a gross floor area of over 110,000 square meters and is currently the largest automotive-grade chip testing and verification platform in Mainland China, with a total investment of RMB900 million.

During the construction phase, the base adopted a high-precision "three tests, three inspections" process to isolate temperature and vibration interference at the source, fully meeting the high-accuracy testing requirements for automotive-grade chips and continuously strengthening the company’s supporting service capabilities for high-end chip manufacturing.

The production lines are fully equipped with AWINIC’s self-developed testing equipment (including the Honghu RF tester and Zhuque mixed-signal tester), automated robots and intelligent warehousing systems. Through IoT-based centralized management of thousands of testing instruments, the facility enables 24-hour uninterrupted unmanned testing. Efficiency and data stability significantly surpass traditional laboratories, establishing an energy-saving, low-carbon and highly efficient intelligent testing production model. The automated pilot production line has completed commissioning. Self-developed equipment is expected to achieve mass production delivery by end-2026. After full deployment of all production lines in 2027, the entire process covering testing, sorting and packaging will operate without human intervention, forming a leading fully automated intelligent verification base in China.

Market analysts believe that compared with the previous overseas testing model, the localized one-stop verification service can shorten the certification cycle for automotive supporting chips by more than 40% and reduce the comprehensive testing cost per chip by over 35%. This will substantially lower R&D and verification investment for chip design companies and significantly accelerate the iteration and vehicle adoption pace of domestically produced automotive chips.
