2 Days to Go! ETON Machines Have Arrived in Cairo – Hall L 210 Awaits You

18 авг. 2026 г. ETON

Our team has arrived in Cairo. The machines are ready.

From August 20 to 22, 2026, the 8th Middle East Lighting Expo 2026 will open its doors at the Cairo International Convention Centre.

Today (August 18), the ETON team has successfully landed in Egypt. Both exhibition machines – the HT-E8S-1200 and T9-2S – have cleared customs and are now undergoing final installation and commissioning at our booth. A journey of 8,000 kilometers from Shenzhen to Cairo – all for one purpose: to deliver a live, authentic placement technology demonstration at Hall L 210.

This year's expo is sponsored by H.E. Khaled Hashim, Egypt's Minister of Industry, and brings together brands and exhibitors from 10 countries, with a target of approximately 15,000 professional visitors. Notably, the expo has been co-located with the Smart Home Technology Expo, expanding the exhibit scope to include smart lighting, IoT modules, building automation, and other emerging sectors. This means the show floor will be packed with smart hardware and electronic module manufacturers who have direct needs for SMT placement solutions.

ETON, Booth Hall L 210 – we look forward to welcoming you.

Two Machines, One Mission: ETON's Star Models in Cairo

ETON is bringing two flagship models to Egypt, covering the full spectrum from high-precision multi-functional placement to ultra-high-speed mass production:

HT-E8S-1200: Single-Module Maglev Multi-functional High-Speed Mounter

The HT-E8S-1200 is equipped with a next-generation maglev linear motor drive system, designed for diverse application scenarios. Key specifications:

Parameter	Specification
Placement Speed	45,000 CPH (optimal conditions)
PCB Size	Max. 1200×350mm / Min. 100×100mm
Component Range	Tape-packaged LEDs, capacitors, resistors, ICs, odd-form components (Max: 17mm / Min: 0402)
Nozzle Count	12 (single module)
Machine Dimensions	2550×1650×1550mm
Machine Weight	1,700kg

The HT-E8S-1200 perfectly handles a wide range of products including drivers, power supplies, circuit boards, lenses, linear bulbs, and home appliance control panels. With dual-mode flexibility – batch pick & separate place or separate pick & separate place – it accommodates both high-mix low-volume and large-scale production requirements.

T9-2S: Ultra-High-Speed Dual-Lane Mounter

The T9-2S is ETON's flagship model in the Zhenpin Series, featuring a dual-lane, four-module placement head design – purpose-built for high-volume production such as LED strip lights.

Parameter	Specification
Placement Speed	Dual-side: 500,000 CPH / Single-side: 250,000 CPH (optimal conditions)
PCB Size	250mm × any length
Total Nozzles	136 (dual-side) / 68 (single-side)
Feeder Stations	144 (dual-side) / 72 (single-side)
Drive System	High-end magnetic linear motor + servo motor
Placement Accuracy	±0.05mm
Machine Dimensions	3500×3000×1800mm
Machine Weight	3,100kg

The T9-2S features ETON's patented batch pick & batch place technology, achieving ultra-high efficiency with two pick-ups and one placement cycle. It also includes missing-component auto-detection and auto-repair functions, paving the way for Industry 4.0 unmanned workshops.

Booth Highlights: More Than Just Watching Machines

Live Dynamic Demonstrations
Both the HT-E8S-1200 and T9-2S will be running simultaneously at the booth, showcasing the entire precision placement process for LED light boards and LED strips in real time – giving you an intuitive feel for speed and accuracy.

Engineers on Site for Q&A
The ETON technical team arrived in Cairo today (August 18) and will remain through September 3. During the show, our engineers are available for one-on-one consultations on placement accuracy, production line efficiency, changeover time, and other manufacturing challenges. Post-show, on-site factory visits and in-depth technical exchanges can also be arranged.

Egyptian Customer Testimonials
Existing ETON customers in Egypt will be present at the booth to share their first-hand experience of how ETON production lines have upgraded their manufacturing capabilities.

Why Egypt? Why Now?

Egypt stands at a crossroads of industrial transformation. Co-located with the Smart Home Technology Expo and sponsored by Egypt's Ministry of Industry, this exhibition sends a clear signal: the boundary between lighting and smart hardware is dissolving, and the application scenarios for SMT placement technology are expanding rapidly across Egypt.

What's more, ETON is not starting from zero in Egypt. Our placement machines have been exported to over 40 countries and regions worldwide, and we already have established customer cases and showrooms in Egypt. Local customers are running complete ETON production lines that continue to operate stably. This is not just the export of equipment – it's the deep-rooted establishment of Chinese manufacturing standards in the Egyptian market.
