SindoPower is the first business-to-business (B2B) eCommerce business owned by a manufacturer of power semiconductor components.[1] Other manufacturers rely on representatives or independent distributors.
SindoPower's parent company, The German-based holding company Semikron, employs 3,600 people worldwide. SEMIKRON comprises a global network of 35 companies with 10 production sites. Power electronics are produced in Germany, France, Italy, Slovakia, South Africa, Brazil, USA, China, India and South Korea. The company [2] has a 37% share of the worldwide market for diode/thyristor modules.
Products
SindoPower’s product range consists of approximately 2,000 of overall 11,600 different power semiconductors from 1 kW to 10 MW, including chips, discrete diodes/thyristors, fuses, sensors, varistors, connectors, and power modules (IGBT, MOSFET, diode, thyristor) as an official distributor of Epcos, LEM, Mersen, SEMIKRON and Weidmüller.
eCommerce
In a market dominated by traditional sales channels, SindoPower's eCommerce model has features atypical for power semiconductor B2B's:
- public transparency in pricing
- Web 2.0 community approach for power electronics experts
- real-time customer service
- stock visibility and automatic substitute proposal for out of stock components
Customer Care
In May 2012 Epcos, LEM, Mersen, Proton Electrotex, Semikron, SindoPower and Weidmüller startet the joined platform PowerGuru to centralize power electronics know-how at one place.
Location
Customers all over the world except from mainland China are handled by SindoPower GmbH. Customers from mainland China are handled by Zhuhai SindoPower Electronics Company Ltd.
