With part 1 covering some background information about MSI’s factory in Kunshan, part 2 will cover some of the things we saw and some information about MSI’s X38 Diamond board as well as a couple of other
motherboards. But let’s continue on with the factory tour.
Although we weren’t allowed to take any pictures inside the factory, due to MSI not wanting its competitors to see the kind of equipment used, we will still offer a glimpse into how motherboards and notebooks are produced in the Kunshan factory. The PCB’s aren’t made on site and arrive ready to use at the production line. The PCB’s are inserted into a transport line which takes them through several SMT machines which mounts the surface mounted components onto the boards and the PCB’s are then passed through hot ovens that melts the soldering points on the SMT components.
