In 2018, Shenzhen laser welding machine manufacturing companies face new opportunities and challenges.
2018-05-25
The production scale of Shenzhen laser welding machines is one of the few powerful national production bases in the country, known as the "Optics Valley Base" with complete technical strength and supporting laser industry chain. Laser welding machines and other laser processing equipment use lasers as the "production driving force," belonging to new energy production power, featuring non-polluting, non-radiative, and renewable energy. More importantly, they offer good processing application quality and high production efficiency, bringing higher benefits to enterprises. In 2017, the total production value of the domestic laser industry reached 30 billion USD, growing by 15% and 23% compared to 2015 and 2016, respectively. With the strong support of national policies on new energy, the application of laser welding machines and laser processing equipment will see a significant increase. Against the backdrop of intense global competition in the laser industry, 2018 will face challenges in the quality of laser technology and services domestically. On the other hand, driven by market demand and competitive effects, laser companies will have more motivation to upgrade and research equipment technology, promoting further upgrades in domestic laser technology.
Shenzhen is the birthplace of domestic laser technology. Based on the advantages of the special economic zone and favorable conditions, talent introduction has become an important project for the Shenzhen government. In 2017, the production value of Shenzhen's laser processing technology equipment reached 13.3 billion USD, accounting for nearly 50% of the domestic market share. With the expansion of production enterprises such as new energy vehicles, there is further growth in the application of laser welding machines and laser processing equipment. From the growth rate in the first quarter of 2018, it increased by 22.6% compared to the same period in 2017, with expectations to exceed a 25% growth rate for the entire year. However, while we see growth, we must also be clear about our weaknesses. The overall technical level of domestic laser production equipment is lower than that of international products, especially high-power lasers, which are almost monopolized by foreign products. Lasers are like our chips; without their driving or processing center, everything is impossible to discuss. Globally renowned laser manufacturers include Coherent from the USA, IPG Laser, Nlight, Rofin, Trumpf from Germany, HIGHYAG, and others, none of which are Chinese companies. This shows that the development of national laser brand technology products is a long way off. Without mastering core technology, it is like having one's neck held by someone else, and the industry can be "suffocated" at any time due to political factors, creating a strong sense of crisis. Although Shenzhen laser welding machine manufacturers have reached the forefront of technology domestically, we can only be considered entry-level companies in the face of international laser technology giants. Since laser technology is a long-term investment with a long return cycle and high risk, many companies are unwilling to engage in research and development, and more products are assembled goods. More capable manufacturers can only focus on automation and optical components. Since 2015, the "National Team of Lasers" led by Shenzhen SHINHOP Laser Company has been officially established. With the support of national policies, it has led several major laser technology companies in the Shenzhen area to participate in laser research, especially in the research and development of high-power lasers. By the first quarter of 2018, SHINHOP Shenzhen Laser Company had already invested 200 million in operating funds and completed its first research and development task in April, laying the foundation for the entire research and development core framework.
Competition is fierce; without a strong technical background, one always faces market elimination. Without the guidance of innovative concepts, it is impossible to become the soul of enterprise development. Therefore, companies producing laser welding machines and other laser processing equipment in Shenzhen must focus on real issues, deeply carry out core technology research and development, introduce talent, strive for innovation, and achieve "overtaking on a curve."
