2026年，3D打印第一笔融资！近万吨产能，中体新材超级工厂来了

Group 1 - The core point of the article is that Zhongti New Materials has completed a new round of equity financing, becoming the first additive manufacturing company to attract capital in 2026, with funds primarily aimed at capacity expansion and technological upgrades to strengthen its position in high-end metal powders [2] - Zhongti New Materials has initiated a "super factory" project, with a total planned area of 266 acres, and the first phase of 76.5 acres is set to commence production by the end of 2026, adding over 8,000 tons of annual metal powder capacity [3] - The factory will focus on intelligent manufacturing of aerospace-grade metal powders, featuring high-precision atomization production lines, intelligent storage systems, and green recycling workshops, aiming to create a flexible and green supply capability for high-end manufacturing [4] Group 2 - In August 2025, Zhongti New Materials completed the construction of an intelligent production line cluster for aluminum alloy powders, adding six automated production lines and increasing annual capacity to 2,500 tons. With the launch of the super factory, the company's annual metal powder capacity will exceed 10,000 tons, positioning it among the first domestic manufacturers to reach this scale [6] - Unlike many powder manufacturers focusing on a single material, Zhongti New Materials has adhered to a strategy of "full category + multiple processes + multiple industries," forming a product system that includes aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, nickel alloy, stainless steel, copper alloy, and precious metal powders [7] - This diverse material system supports a large customer matrix, with strategic partnerships established with leading companies in consumer electronics, automotive, aerospace, low-altitude economy, and robotics, enhancing customer loyalty and binding new material capabilities with end applications [9] Group 3 - Zhongti New Materials is at the forefront of low-carbon additive manufacturing, having been the first domestic company to obtain SCS certification for aluminum and titanium alloy powder production, recognized for initiating low-carbon manufacturing in 3D printing [10] - The company has developed proprietary technologies for powder recycling and intelligent sorting systems, achieving a closed-loop cycle for titanium, aluminum, and steel materials during the 3D printing process [12] - The green manufacturing initiatives have entered a practical phase, with a strategic partnership established with Brose, a leading global automotive systems supplier, focusing on steel recycling and high-performance iron-based powder preparation to promote sustainable additive manufacturing in the automotive sector [14] Group 4 - The global market for 3D printing metal powders is projected to grow from $8.5 billion in 2024 to $26.8 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of 21.3%, significantly outpacing traditional powder metallurgy materials [15] - The rapid growth is driven by industrial applications in aerospace and consumer markets in 3C electronics, leading to increased demand that compels metal powder manufacturers to expand capacity [17] - The current focus for material companies is not whether to expand, but how and how quickly to do so, indicating that capacity expansion will become the norm in the 3D printing industry as it enters 2026 [17]
