山东将打造四大铜产业集群

Core Viewpoint - The Shandong Provincial Industrial and Information Technology Department, along with nine other departments, has issued the "Shandong Province Copper Industry High-Quality Development Action Plan (2025-2027)", aiming to exceed a total output value of 200 billion yuan in the copper industry by 2027, establishing Shandong as a globally competitive copper smelting base and a leading domestic hub for high-end copper material R&D and application [1][2] Group 1 - The plan focuses on enhancing the industrial foundation, clustering levels, and development momentum in key cities, promoting the establishment of four major copper industry clusters: Dongying for "cooperative smelting + copper-based new materials", Liaocheng for "mining copper smelting + high-end foil deep processing", Yantai for "associated copper smelting + special rod and wire deep processing", and Linyi for "recycled copper smelting + urban mining" [1] - The strategy includes extending the copper industry chain by targeting key segments, weak areas, and high-end gaps, while aligning with national industrial policies [2] Group 2 - In the upstream sector, the plan emphasizes upgrading the circular economy of copper smelting and improving the efficiency of recycled copper resource utilization to secure raw material supply [2] - The midstream focus is on expanding specialized copper materials for power distribution, precision copper components for electronics, and special copper parts for equipment manufacturing to fill gaps in the industry chain [2] - In the downstream sector, the plan aims to layout key copper-based materials for the new energy field, facilitating the extension to high-end application scenarios [2] Group 3 - The plan supports the adoption of intelligent smelting systems in the melting process, establishing digital twin models to enhance material supply management and reduce smelting costs [2] - In copper processing, it promotes flexible production and quality closed-loop systems, encouraging copper foil rolling companies to use AI visual inspection systems to improve product quality [2] - The initiative also advocates for the use of 5G and industrial internet collaborative platforms in copper pipe processing to shorten order switching times and reduce logistics costs, driving the transition of copper smelting and processing enterprises towards a "data-driven" model [2]
