Where should my country's laser cutting machine industry develop in the future?

The current problems encountered in the development of my country's laser cutting machine industry are mainly caused by the lack of major technologies in optical devices and lasers, and the basic research on processing technology is also relatively weak. Currently, laser marking machines and laser cutting machines, which are relatively large in the market, have lower entry barriers. Most domestic companies are providers of mid- to low-end products, and some high-end equipment markets are still occupied by foreign companies. So where should my country's laser cutting machine industry go in the future?

First, strengthen intellectual property protection. Core technology represents the competitiveness of an enterprise. Whether a laser enterprise is engaged in product development or processing technology development, it needs to invest a lot of human and financial resources. Its R&D results are copied by others before they make much profit, which dampens innovative R&D. larger. The government and industry should clearly realize that protecting intellectual property rights is crucial to the laser high-tech industry.

The second is to strengthen the formulation of laser safety and standards. In the early days, some of my country's laser safety and standards were translated from foreign countries and were much behind those of European and American countries. With the expansion of China's laser market, more attention needs to be paid to the formulation of safety and standards, because this is the industry's access standard, the company's product safety specification, the guarantee to reduce the chaos of competition in the industry, and is also conducive to improving the quality of domestic laser cutting products. International quality level.

The third is to strengthen the development of laser processing application technology. At present, laser-related enterprises in my country basically focus their resources on the development and upgrading of lasers, supporting components, and integrated equipment. They have done less understanding of product capabilities, especially the exploration and research of terminal processing technology. Developing countries such as Europe, the United States, and Japan , have made many achievements in the exploration of laser technology. They not only thoroughly researched the optics and performance of lasers, but also conducted many experiments on material properties and the interaction between the two. Strengthen industry-university-research cooperation and support the development of laser companies. It is a pity that much of my country's laser research remains in the laboratory and has not been transformed into products. In addition, the scientific research and innovation of enterprises are close to the market and applications, and the innovative results of enterprises are often the greatest driving force for the development of the entire industry.

The fourth is to continue to strengthen policy and financial support. Great progress has been made in recent years. The country has listed "laser manufacturing and additive manufacturing" as key industrial development projects, and approved a number of R&D projects and financial support. Some local governments have sought to The establishment of a laser industrial park will also strengthen support for laser development.
