China Machining Industry Development Status and Prospect Forecast Report 2022-2028

Mechanical processing refers to the process of changing the size or performance of the workpiece through a kind of mechanical equipment. It can be divided into cutting and pressure processing according to the difference in the processing way.

With the rapid development of modern machining and machining technology, many advanced machining technology and methods have emerged slowly, such as micro machining technology, rapid forming technology, precision ultra-precision machining technology and so on.

Micromachining Technology

With the development of (Micro/Nano Science and Technology), micromachines characterized by their own small size or operation scale have become a high-tech technology for people to understand and transform the microscopic world. Because of its ability to operate in a small space without disturbing the working environment and objects, micromachines have broad application potential in aerospace, precision instruments, biomedical and other fields, and have become an important means of nanotechnology research. It is highly valued and listed as the first key technology in the 21st century.

Rapid Prototyping Machining Technology

Rapid prototyping technology was developed in the 20th century, and can quickly manufacture prototypes or parts based on CAD models. It is a material additive manufacturing method, that is, three-dimensional forming is completed through the orderly accumulation of materials. Rapid prototyping technology integrates modern scientific and technological achievements such as CNC technology, material technology, laser technology and CAD technology, and is an important part of modern advanced machining technology.

Precision ultra-precision machining technology

Precision and ultra-precision machining is an important part of modern machining and manufacturing technology, and it is one of the important indicators to measure the level of a country's high-tech manufacturing industry. Since the 1960s, with the development of computer and information technology, higher requirements have been placed on manufacturing technology, not only requiring extremely high dimensional, geometric and positional accuracy, but also requiring extremely high surface quality. It is under such market demand that ultra-precision machining technology has developed rapidly, and various processes and new methods have been emerging.
