2026 17th Dongguan International Connector, Cable Harness and Processing Equipment Exhibition

As the global manufacturing sector undergoes a profound transformation towards electrification and intelligentization, the harness industry, which serves as its 'nervous system', is experiencing a deep change driven by foundational equipment. Market research indicates that by 2030, the global harness market is expected to surpass $100 billion, and the demand for upgrading processing equipment is becoming the core lever to tap into this huge market. Against this backdrop, the "2026 17th Dongguan International Connector, Cable Harness and Processing Equipment Exhibition (ICH Dongguan 2026)" will be held from March 8 to 10, 2026, in Dongguan. As an annual flagship exhibition, it is seen by the industry as a key indicator for understanding trends and anchoring technology routes.

This exhibition will comprehensively reveal how harness processing equipment evolves to meet differentiated challenges in sectors such as new energy vehicles, smart home appliances, and high-end electronics. According to related industry research, over 70% of manufacturing companies concentrate their annual procurement plans in the first half of the year. Therefore, the "ICH 2026 Dongguan Exhibition", as the first exhibition of the year, is not only a premier platform for the launch of new products and technologies but also a "golden window period" for suppliers to connect with a vast pool of precise buyers and directly enter client annual procurement lists.

The expanding market demand drives harness processing equipment toward high-end and intelligent development. The explosive growth of downstream industries is the fundamental force behind equipment upgrades. The popularization of the 800V high-voltage platform in new energy vehicles sets unprecedented strict standards for harnesses regarding insulation performance, current-carrying capacity, and safety, directly leading to a demand for the iterative upgrading of dedicated processing and testing equipment for high-voltage harnesses. Moreover, the rapid increase in the number of in-vehicle sensors brought by intelligent driving and the widespread application of in-vehicle Ethernet focus the innovation of devices on precision processing of high-speed data transmission harnesses and signal integrity testing.

To respond to the ever-increasing manufacturing costs and quality requirements, global harness processing equipment is accelerating towards "automation, integration, and datafication." Traditional standalone operations are being replaced by integrated harness manufacturing systems, achieving automation of the entire process from cutting, stripping, and crimping to testing. Online inspection equipment, based on machine vision and AI algorithms, can identify defects in terminal crimping and micron-level dimensional deviations in real-time, moving quality control from "post-inspection" to "process prevention". Furthermore, intelligent devices equipped with data collection and analysis are becoming the cornerstone for factories to build digital workshops and implement lean management.

This exhibition will gather leading connector and harness processing equipment manufacturers, with numerous innovative products making their debut. In the core harness processing equipment exhibition area, many leading domestic and foreign companies have confirmed their participation, and attendees will witness the next generation of harness production solutions firsthand. The product range includes:

1. Connectors, plugs, and devices: terminal connectors, waterproof connectors, explosion-proof connectors, etc.
2. Harness processing equipment: cutting machines, stripping machines, crimping machines, etc.
3. Cables and accessories: electrical cables, optical fiber cables, etc.
4. Harness and wiring materials: terminal blocks, insulation sleeves, wires, etc.
