2022-03-07 管理员 Read 65

On December 28, 2021, the "14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Medical Equipment Industry" was issued, proposing that by 2025, the medical equipment industry will be advanced in basic and the level of industrial chain modernization will be significantly improved, and mainstream medical equipment will basically achieve effective supply and high-end medical equipment. The performance and quality of medical equipment products have been significantly improved.

On January 26, the "Guangdong Province Implementation Plan for Promoting the High-Quality Development of the Medical Device Industry" was issued. It is planned that by 2023, the annual compound growth rate of the operating income of the medical device manufacturing industry in Guangdong Province will reach more than 20%, and the annual growth rate of the medical device manufacturing industry above designated size will reach 20%. Operating income reached 170 billion yuan.

On January 30, the "14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of the Pharmaceutical Industry" was issued, proposing that the average annual growth rate of the pharmaceutical industry (including medical equipment) operating income and total profit during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period should remain above 8%.


Where is the wind of my country's medical device market blowing? What is the development status of the global medical equipment industry?


Lock in the 2022 ITES China Medical Device Industry Development Forum, and invite leading representatives from international and domestic leading medical device companies + automotive, white goods and other fields to provide diversified ideas for the development of medical device companies


Medical equipment has broad prospects, leading upstream sheet metal enterprises


The strong development momentum of the domestic medical device industry has given the upstream sheet metal enterprises a broad market space. Although the proportion of sheet metal parts in medical devices is about 10% to 15% in terms of composition cost, it is an important part that affects the functional application, appearance process and even safety performance of medical devices.


The sheet metal parts of the main structural parts of medical devices are mainly divided into load-bearing parts, connecting parts, outer frames and auxiliary cabinets (such as power cabinets, etc.). Most of these structural parts are thin plates except the connecting parts which are mainly medium and thick plates. The materials are mainly stainless steel plates and aluminum plates, as well as some aluminum-zinc plates and cold-rolled steel plates.


Medical devices themselves have the characteristics of "multiple varieties and small batches", and they have special processing requirements for the manufacture of sheet metal structural parts, which are embodied in:


The precision requirements of movable connectors, especially the connectors after welding and splicing, need to be coordinated and run consistently according to the requirements of the application software;


The surface appearance process requirements of the outer frame and the outer frame, the special-shaped appearance is formed, the surface is free of any flaws, and the welding and grinding are consistent;


The load-bearing part of the equipment needs to bear the gravity of the main body (including the force generated during its movement).


In general, flexible hardware is the most important feature in the manufacturing of sheet metal parts of medical devices.


How to form a systematic industrial chain while ensuring that the products meet the needs of the public, and maximize the profits of the enterprise while reducing costs and improving efficiency? This is a serious challenge faced by sheet metal enterprises facing the huge opportunity of medical device production. In this regard, TRUMPF, Han's, Hongshan, Bystronic, Yawei, Huagong and other head laser companies have provided mature solutions, and these advanced manufacturing equipment will be exhibited at the 2022 ITES Shenzhen Industrial Exhibition. Welcome to then your presence.

TRUMPF Booth No.: 6-G01



TRUMPF Flap Bending CenterTruBend Center



A set of standard molds can reliably and perfectly cover 70%-80% of the parts processing. When the workpiece needs to be bent on both sides, without manual intervention, the workpiece rotation manipulator uses high-precision positioning to automatically calculate the side length, and the speed of rotating and moving the workpiece can be as high as 3000 mm/s. Help customers to quickly increase production efficiency by 30% or more.



Han's Laser Booth No.: 6-H01



SF series ultra-high power fiber laser cutting machine



The introduction of magnetic levitation technology for high-speed drive; 30,000 watts of ultra-high power, higher efficiency, faster speed, and more stable performance. Cutting ≤40mm plate, the efficiency is increased by more than 100%, and the average efficiency of carbon steel and stainless steel cutting is increased by 80% (16mm carbon steel nitrogen cutting, speed 7m/min).

Hongshan Laser Booth No.: 6-A01



TM65 II Small Tube High Speed Laser Tube Cutting Machine


It can process round pipes with a minimum diameter of 10mm and a maximum diameter of 100mm, square pipes with side lengths of 10-100mm and flat pipes with super-long proportions. The front chuck avoidance cutting method shortens the distance between the cutting head and the rear chuck jaws, thereby reducing the length of the tail material to 50mm. Help users improve material utilization and reduce production costs.

Bystronic Booth No.: 8-H20



Bystronic sheet metal processing automatic line



Bystronic's automation system can be designed and developed according to customer needs and on-site working environment, realizing material storage from warehouse and automatic loading and unloading of laser cutting machine, which can effectively ensure product quality, improve production efficiency and reduce production costs. The bending automation solution accelerates the work process, improves the processing quality, fully utilizes the potential of the integrated bending system, and realizes the intelligent automatic production of precision sheet metal in the field of medical devices.

Yawei Booth No.: 8-C10



Robotic bending cell



It is equipped with a six-axis robot or a gantry robot for automatic bending with a CNC bending machine, and is equipped with accessories such as a centering table and a turning bracket to meet the process requirements of automatic bending. Ultra-large and ultra-wide workpiece processing, reducing labor intensity for batch processing, and high consistency of workpiece accuracy.
