iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus - Foxconn produces 540.000 units daily and cannot cope with market demand

  iPhone 6 si 6 iPhone Plus are extremely sought after all over the world at the moment, and Foxconn is trying to cover this demand by producing 540.000 units each day in its factories. To produce this enormous amount of terminals those from Foxconn they have assets no less of 100 production lines with over 200.000 dedicated workers, the impressive figures demonstrating how much effort the Taiwanese put into producing these devices.

We have been churning out 140,000 iPhone 6 Plus and 400,000 iPhone 6 every day, the highest daily output ever, but the volume is still not enough to meet the preorders. The output rate of 5.5-inch is still only around 50%-60%, which means display makers have to scrap almost half of the substandard output, said a person at a display component supplier. The person said the output rate of the 4.7-inch display is better at 85%.

  Of the 540.000 units produced daily, 400.000 are terminals iPhone 6 and 140.000 are terminal 6 iPhone Plus, so almost a third of the total production is represented by the latter product. The interesting part is that the screen manufacturers 6 iPhone Plus are forced to give up up to 60% of the daily production due to the manufacturing problems of this component, the final result being a reduced availability of the terminal.

  In the end, the Apple company demands enormous quantities of products from its partners, but production problems cause their unavailability.
