On May 3, 2018, the press conference of the 5th World 3D Printing Technology Industry Conference was held in Beijing. The theme of the conference, 'Redefining Manufacturing in 3D Printing', will be held in Foshan from June 17th to 18th. Permanent site is expected to settle in Dali. At the same time, the world's first 3D printing batch manufacturing center and Guangdong (Dali) 3D printing collaborative innovation platform will open to the public next month.
On October 15, 2012, the China 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance jointly initiated by the Asian Manufacturing Association, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Tsinghua University and other leading research institutes and 3D industry leaders was announced in Beijing. Promote the industrialization and marketization of China's 3D printing technology, speed up the dialogue and exchanges with the international community, and promote the organic integration of 3D printing technology with traditional manufacturing technologies.
3D printing technology has swept the world. More and more high-tech companies have begun to set foot in this field. The 3D printing technology industry conference in the world was jointly established by China 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance and the World 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance. It was held in Qingdao, Chengdu, Shanghai and other cities. This year is the fifth session. This is the largest and most influential industry event in the global 3D printing industry. It plays an important role in promoting international dialogue and cooperation in 3D printing and promoting industry exchanges. And support function.
According to reports, during the conference, academicians from the Royal Academy of Engineering, academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, academicians of the American Academy of Engineering, Cambridge University, Imperial College, Manchester University, and more than 800 authoritative experts from home and abroad and guests from Hewlett-Packard and other domestic and foreign companies will attend the conference. .

At the meeting, Luo Jun, Executive Director of the 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance in China stated that with a large number of traditional manufacturing companies such as HP, GE, Siemens, Honeywell and Alcoa entering the field of 3D printing, the advantages of 3D printing in the coming years It will focus on the outbreak. At present, from the perspective of several indicators such as technological processes, materials, software, and applications, the gap with the international community is still very clear. He believes that China's 3D printing development should start with three aspects: First, the government should actively support and encourage it. Enterprises build more open application service platforms to promote the deep integration of 3D printing with traditional industries. Second, encourage companies to conduct international cooperation with international top research institutions to create international R&D centers, joint laboratories and research institutes; Science and engineering colleges, vocational colleges deepen cooperation between schools and enterprises, set up 3D printing college (professional), and cultivate more 3D printing application talents.
It is foreseeable that 3D printing will bring drastic changes to China's manufacturing industry, and will also have fierce collisions and competition with traditional manufacturing industries. Vice President of China 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance, School of Laser Engineering, Beijing University of Technology, Chen Jimin Prof. Yang Weidong, Professor of Mechanical Engineering of Hebei University of Technology, made a systematic introduction to the technical process and market application of 3D printing from different perspectives. He also gave the 3D Printing Technology Industry Alliance the opportunity to settle the permanent site of the 3D Printing Technology Industry Conference in Dali. Highly appraised, they believe that Guangdong is the most concentrated province in China's traditional manufacturing industry. Today, Guangdong is facing a period of great opportunities for the development of Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macau Bay Area. On the one hand, it faces tremendous pressure for transformation and upgrading. At the same time, it is also a development of the 3D printing industry. It is a great opportunity. Guangdong (Dali) 3D Printing Collaborative Innovation Platform has settled in Dali. As one of the important achievements of Dali in actively promoting the development of 3D printing industry, it will surely nurture the rise of 3D printing emerging industries.
In recent years, 3D printing technology has developed rapidly. Although the current technology is still in the rising stage in China, but with the attention of related industries and the development of enterprises, I believe that China will come from behind in this field, adding new impetus to the manufacturing industry.
