Samsung already admits that the lockdown in Xi’an will affect production at its factories

According to statistics Currently, the first wave of Covidem-19 infection has been taking place in Xi’an Province since the beginning of monitoring (February 2020), as the maximum 15 cases per day from last February cannot even be considered a wave, while now the number of cases has exceeded three in one day. hundreds.

It is no wonder that unusually strict measures are currently in place in Xi’an, which are also affecting industrial production there. Yesterday, we were able to decide whether the lockdown would affect Samsung’s production volume at all, as there were reports that this was primarily a problem with the movement of people and goods, with Samsung having enough supplies in its two NAND Flash factories in Xi’an. its customers have something to take from their warehouses. But now Samsung admits somewhat vaguely and vaguely that lockdown will have an effect.

Although the company euphemistically speaks of a “temporary adjustment of production” and that this decision was made in accordance with the commitment to protect the health and safety of employees and business partners. But we also learn that Samsung intends to adapt production to the rest of its factories to ensure that customers are not affected, so it is clear that its production volume in Xi’an will go down.

However, it is difficult to predict what specific impacts there will be, which will also depend on further developments in the province and other reactions of the authorities. We don’t even know anything about how Samsung reacted at all and whether it just had to slow down production, or close some lines straight away, or what is (not) happening in the factories at all.

But we know that Samsung’s local factories produce modern multi-layer V-NAND memories, including 136L versions for the 980 Pro SSD, and they should also have 176L memories for future SSDs for both PCIe 4.0 and PCI 5.0. We will also see what TrendForce will say now recent news Samsung’s production in Xi’an was to be intact.
