Technology & Products

Key Products

Premium special metal materials, including wire materials and catalysts, for additive manufacturing.

Technological Advantage

Controls the entire value chain from master alloy formulation to final powder/wire, ensuring superior batch-to-batch consistency and the ability to develop custom alloys 2x faster than pure atomization competitors.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Reduces material-induced defects in critical aerospace components by providing high-purity (O/N/S ≤ 5ppm) metal feedstock with 99.9% chemical consistency and high fine-powder yields (>80%).

How They Differentiate

Qina maintains the highest domestic market share in AM superalloys by offering lower oxygen content (≤5ppm) and higher fine-powder yields compared to standard domestic providers, while being 30-40% more cost-effective than international imports.

Why this company matters

Jiangsu Qina New Materials and Technology Co., Ltd. is a Chinese producer of high-performance superalloy powders and wires for additive manufacturing, serving aerospace, gas turbine, and medical implant markets. Founded in 2012 and based in Suqian, the company pivoted to 3D printing materials in 2017 and has since become a domestic market leader in AM superalloy feedstock, recognized as a National 'Little Giant' enterprise.

Qina's core technology centers on its integrated 'Melting-to-Feedstock' production chain, which combines proprietary VIGA and EIGA atomization processes with AI-driven alloy composition optimization. By controlling the entire value chain from master alloy formulation to final powder or wire, the company achieves high-purity feedstock with oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur content at or below 5 ppm, chemical consistency of 99.9%, and fine-powder yields exceeding 80%. This approach reduces material-induced defects in critical components made via powder bed fusion, directed energy deposition (arc and laser), and binder jetting.

The company targets aerospace engine manufacturers, gas turbine OEMs, medical implant producers, and 3D printing service bureaus. Named customers include AECC, COMAC, and State Power Investment Corporation, along with various tier-1 medical implant manufacturers. Qina differentiates from domestic competitors like Jiangsu AMER New Material and Jiangsu Jinwu New Material by offering lower oxygen content and higher fine-powder yields, while being 30-40% more cost-effective than international imports. Its ability to develop custom alloys roughly twice as fast as pure atomization rivals provides a further edge.

Qina has raised approximately $75 million in total funding from investors including the National Manufacturing Transformation and Upgrading Fund, AECC Investment Fund, Shenzhen Capital Group, Walden International, Oriza Holdings, and CITIC Securities Investment. The company reported a production value of 310 million yuan ($43 million) in 2025, with 3,500 tons of annual production capacity and a 50% revenue CAGR over the last three years. Key partnerships with Tsinghua University and Wuhan University of Science and Technology support ongoing R&D in alloy optimization and atomization technology.
