As a new type of processing technology, laser has the characteristics of high precision, fast speed, and no damage to the substrate, which caters to the prevailing trend of the popularization of precision electronic products. Driven by consumer electronic equipment, the laser industry will usher in a wave of good news.
As mobile phones and other products gradually become more sophisticated, the application of brittle materials such as ceramics and 3D glass continues to expand. In this case, how to process these materials has become the most central issue. As a new type of processing technology, laser has the characteristics of high accuracy, fast speed, and no damage to the substrate, which caters to the prevailing trend of the current popularization of precision electronic products. Driven by consumer electronic equipment, the laser industry will usher in a wave of good news.
At the same time, the popularity of new energy vehicles has brought opportunities for power battery manufacturers to expand their production. Battery processing will also require lasers for welding. In the future, the laser industry will also enjoy the benefits of the popularization of new energy vehicles.
Driven by downstream demand, the development prospects of the laser industry are extremely impressive. Laser technology originated in the 1960s and is one of the major inventions that can be as famous as semiconductors, computers, and atomic energy. At present, there are numerous laser-related products and services, forming a huge industrial system. And laser has also become one of the fast-developing high-tech industries in my country.
Compared with traditional cutting and welding, laser processing methods have great advantages. Nowadays, they have penetrated into a wide range of fields such as medical treatment, semiconductor processing, high-end materials, communications, and military.
Overall, the market demand of the laser industry mainly comes from the continuous growth of downstream demand for lasers. According to the analysis of the Prospective Industry Research Institute, the current total sales of laser equipment in my country has increased from 9.7 billion yuan in 2010 to 38.5 billion yuan in 2016, and it is expected to be thinner this year to reach 45.5 billion yuan.
Moreover, with the continuous maturity of downstream laser application technologies, the role of lasers in industries, manufacturing, and medical fields is becoming more and more important. Especially the laser marking and engraving process is very mature now, and the fiber laser cutting equipment is gradually replacing the existing traditional punching machine, shearing machine, etc. However, the laser welding process is not widely used in our country. On the contrary, there is more room for development in one area, which deserves investors' focus.
Laser welding technology is mainly used in power battery production lines. According to estimates, a power battery production line needs to install laser equipment in the cell welding and module welding links. Each production line above the designated size can bring tens of millions of yuan in sales of laser welding equipment, and now the power battery industry is developing like a raging fire, and the demand for laser welding equipment cannot be underestimated.
However, with regard to the laser welding equipment required by the power battery industry today, domestic laser equipment manufacturers have formed a set of inherent supply schemes, either to supply a single device to the power battery manufacturer, or to supply the power battery manufacturer with the production line. A complete set of laser welding equipment. Therefore, investors need to pay special attention to the development of power battery business lines.
As downstream applications gradually become diversified, panels, 3D printing, and 3C will all become market segments worth exploring.
