How 3D Printing Helps China's Manufacturing Industry

Recently, the 3D Printing Industry Development Forum was held in Harbin, attracting more than 120 experts, scholars and entrepreneurs from all over the country. Many participants reported that, with everyone optimistic about the prospects of 3D printing that will lead Chinese industries in overtaking, the overall atmosphere of this forum is more calm and rational.

Avoid swarming

Looking back at the past, from the photovoltaic industry to electric vehicles, the manufacturing industry has emerged as a potential growth point, and local businesses are prone to swarming. However, after the surge, the national brands that can really stand on the market are rare.

On how to seize another new opportunity brought by 3D printing technology, Luo Jun, CEO of the 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance in the world, said: “3D printing needs to fulfill two requirements when it comes to realizing cornering overtaking: First, world-class research and development Talent, and second, sustainable capital investment."

In short, the key to passing a corner is not to rush to the top, but to accumulate.

Industrial-grade 3D printing technology was born in the United States as early as 1986, but it officially entered the public eye in 2012. At the time, President Barack Obama mentioned in his State of the Union address the importance of 3D printing to the U.S. manufacturing industry. In fact, we should not ignore the fact that 3D printing technology has accumulated in the United States for decades.

Similar to the shale revolution in the United States. Shale mining technology has appeared since the 1970s. It has also been accumulated through decades of research and development and gradually industrialized. Until recently, the shale revolution was brewed, which in turn led to a significant increase in oil and gas production.

According to the "World's Advanced Manufacturing Trends Report" issued by the Wilson Center, the United States think tank, U.S. has the highest investment in R&D in the world. Three-quarters of them invest in manufacturing, and their advantages in advanced manufacturing fields such as synthetic biology, advanced materials and rapid prototyping manufacturing are obvious. .

Whether it is R&D investment or technical level, whether it is product quality or brand image, there is still a clear gap with the international advanced level. This is not unrelated to the weak foundation, but the bluff of “making quick money” in the bones is still a problem.

A participant entrepreneur revealed to reporters that his company has been developing 3D printing technology in the past two years, but it is only a copy of imported equipment, does not have independent intellectual property rights, this model is also step by step, can keep up with the international advanced level It's hard to say, let alone the curve overtaking.

Xiao Bo, Vice Chairman of the 3D Printing Materials Council of China, said that, besides talking about 3D printing on tall books, he said that the ball of the ballpoint pen is almost all made in Japan. This kind of dedication to the ultimate product requires the entire Chinese industry. To reflect and learn.

Avoid "competitive" competition

Participating entrepreneurs frankly stated that what they are most adept at is cost control, raw material costs, labor costs, land costs, tax costs, and environmental governance costs, etc., which literally created the "myth" made in China.

For Chinese enterprises this “stunt”, Zhang Yifei, general manager assistant of the high-end equipment and 3D printing division of Xinsong Robot Automation Corporation stated that the imported 3D printing equipment and materials are expensive, but this is not because people will not control costs. It is enjoying the high profit margin brought about by the monopoly of technology. When China can imitate similar products with similar prices and quality, the technology of the people's reserves is sufficient to replace or slightly reduce the profit rate, and Chinese products will lose its market.

Obviously, if we want to occupy the global market in the future, we will no longer be the one who fights cheaper, but who is better and who has the core technology.

The dilemma of the development of China's photovoltaic industry is a typical case. Although the price of photovoltaic products with surplus production capacity is internationally competitive, they have been attacked by anti-dumping and countervailing subsidies in European and American markets. The government’s industrial support policy has instead become the “handle” of trade relief cases.

The 3D printing industry started late in China and dispersed. In order to accumulate strength and support group development, China's 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance, a private industry organization, has established the China Biomedical 3D Printing Council and the China 3D Printing Materials Council in October and December of this year, and will also establish Chinese industry and culture in 2016 respectively. Creative 3D Printing Council, to integrate the industry potential of 3D printing technology with the greatest application potential to avoid disorderly competition.

In addition to the concerted efforts of the entire industry, Luo Jun believes that the spring of 3D printing has arrived in terms of national industrial policies, market cultivation, and industrial support. He believes that in the next five years or so, the quality of Chinese 3D printed desktops will surpass that of the United States, and the market share is expected to increase to more than 30%.

In order to make up for technical shortcomings, China's 3D printing technology industry alliance will also launch a 200 million yuan industrial investment fund in 2016, specifically for the introduction of technology and investment in research and development laboratories.

Looking into the future, China's manufacturing industry should use greater wisdom and rationality to avoid rushing forward and truly surpass the tradition of "fighting prices." After all, “Made in China 2025” is a guideline for action that will lead the construction of a powerful country in China in the next 10 years.
