In the era of Industry 4.0, industrial technology has been endowed with more scientific and technological power, and has embarked on the road of intelligence, high-end, and green. As a cutting-edge technology in the current manufacturing industry, additive manufacturing provides many new ways for technological innovation in the industry through the manufacturing method of material accumulation based on digital model files.
On April 2, at the second China Industrial Chain Innovation and Development Summit, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a professor of Xi'an Jiaotong University introduced that the market for 3D printing (additive manufacturing) is not big, but "3D printing +" has enlarged it Direct economic benefits in manufacturing. In addition, the concept and research of 4D printing and even 5D printing have also begun to emerge.
According to the statistics of the Wohlers report, the global 3D printing industry will reach 9.53 billion euros in 2022, of which the metal additive manufacturing market will be about 3 billion euros, an increase of more than 20%, of which my country's 3D printing equipment accounts for 17%.
Among domestic listed additive manufacturing companies, BLT, Youyan Powder Materials, Farsoon Hi-Tech, etc. focus on the R&D, production and sales of non-ferrous metal powder materials and additive manufacturing equipment, promoting the gradual expansion of the scale of my country's additive manufacturing industry .
With the full recovery of the manufacturing industry in 2023, these three listed companies have also reported good news about the construction and commissioning of additive manufacturing production bases!
Platinum:
According to recent news, the design and planning drawing of Block E of the BLT metal additive manufacturing large-scale intelligent production base project located in Xi'an High-tech Zone has successfully completed the construction approval, and the project is about to start construction. It is reported that the project is a four-phase project with a total construction area of about 163,200 square meters. It is planned to build a high-quality metal 3D printing raw material powder production line, and a high-efficiency and high-precision metal 3D printing customized product production line.
There are research powder materials:
On April 4, Youyan Powder Materials stated on the investor interaction platform that the powder material base project located in Qiaohe Industrial Park, Qijiang District, Chongqing City has completed the construction task and is currently in the trial production stage. It is expected to be officially put into production in June this year. It is understood that the project will start on October 25, 2021, with a total investment of 100 million yuan and an annual production capacity of 12,000 tons after completion. In addition, the commissioning of the project will further improve the overall layout of copper-based powders in the domestic market.
Farsoon Hi-Tech:
On January 5, the Phase I project of Farsoon Hi-Tech New Materials base was officially completed and put into production in Yiyang, Hunan. With the first phase of the project put into use, it will further consolidate the industrial structure of Farsoon Hi-Tech's 3D printing equipment and materials going hand in hand, and meet the growing and diversified needs of Farsoon Hi-Tech's domestic and overseas users for new materials. According to public data, Farsoon Hi-Tech has been focusing on the R&D, production and sales of industrial-grade additive manufacturing equipment, and is committed to providing global customers with metal additive manufacturing equipment and polymer additive manufacturing equipment, as well as 3D printing materials and processes. and services.
In addition to the construction of additive manufacturing production base projects of listed companies in full swing, the construction of additive manufacturing industrial parks led by local governments is also accelerating to ensure that the projects are completed and delivered on schedule.
According to recent news, the Xi'an High-tech Additive Manufacturing Industrial Park project located in the Silk Road Science City of Xi'an High-tech Zone has been partially capped and will be fully completed in 2024. The project will create an enterprise industrial park and additive manufacturing industry demonstration zone integrating R&D, production and service, with excellent environment, complete facilities and first-class service, and promote the application of 3D printing technology and products in Xi'an High-tech Zone in aviation, aerospace, automobile, medical , culture, education and other fields to achieve large-scale application.
On March 17, the new project of Tieshan Industrial Park, Qixingyuan, Guilin High-tech Zone - Guilin Kechuang Additive Manufacturing Industrial Park held a completion and commissioning ceremony. It is reported that the industrial park project plans R&D and mold manufacturing, injection molding and hardware production, precision machining, spray printing, SMT, OEM OEM, and it is estimated that the annual output value of the project will be about 300 million yuan after completion.
In recent years, in order to further promote the integration and application of additive manufacturing technology in the manufacturing field, and accelerate the implementation of technological innovation and industry standardization of additive manufacturing, the national level has actively introduced policies related to additive manufacturing.
On February 20, 2023, nine departments including the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Coordinating Energy Conservation, Carbon Reduction, and Recycling to Accelerate the Renovation and Renovation of Product Equipment in Key Areas", in order to standardize the recycling of waste products and equipment. In terms of manufacturing, it is proposed to promote the application of non-destructive testing, additive manufacturing, flexible processing and other technologies to improve the level of remanufacturing.
At present, my country's additive manufacturing materials industry is entering a stage of high-quality development. In order to further improve the industry standard system, on February 16, the "2023 National Standard Project Guidelines" issued by the National Standardization Management Committee mentioned that in the field of key basic materials, high-purity rare metal materials, high-quality special steel materials, and high-performance ceramics should be formulated. , high-performance fiber materials, additive manufacturing materials and other key basic material standards.
With the innovation of technology and the passage of time, my country has achieved a major transformation from equal material, subtractive material to additive material. It can be seen that in the future, the status of additive manufacturing in the manufacturing industry will become higher and higher, and the development prospects of the industry will be further broadened.
