To overcome technological bottlenecks in power semiconductor devices, Dongfeng Motor Corporation partnered with CRRC to establish an advanced semiconductor production line. Zhixin Semiconductor Co., Ltd. was founded in Wuhan in June 2019 and successfully built an internationally leading automotive power semiconductor production line based on sixth-generation IGBT technology at Dongfeng’s New Energy Vehicle Industrial Park (Phase I).

SIPM Software has collaborated with Dongfeng for many years. In 2020, Zhixin Technology signed a contract with SIPM Software to implement the SIPM/PLM system. The Phase II project was launched in 2021 to further develop a comprehensive R&D management platform using SIPM/PLM. Recently, the two parties deepened their collaboration once again by deploying the SIPM/PLM solution at Zhixin Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

The implementation of the SIPM/PLM system will enable Zhixin Semiconductor to integrate a world-class R&D framework with cutting-edge software tools, ensuring that new product development is executed rapidly, systematically, and efficiently. This will empower the company to respond flexibly to market demands, enhance product quality, reduce R&D costs, and accelerate Zhixin Semiconductor’s growth trajectory.
