Technology & Products
Key Products
["Large-scale Laser Additive Manufacturing (LAM) Services","High-performance Metal Structural Components (Titanium alloys, Superalloys, High-strength steel)","Aeronautical Wing and Engine Structural Parts (e.g., for C919 and other major aircraft)","Marine High-strength Thin-walled Complex Structural Components","Satellite Hardware (e.g., 'Xiong'an-1' satellite components)","High-performance Metal Material Customization & Surface Engineering"]
Technological Advantage
Leverages proprietary Laser Melting Deposition (LMD) technology to create massive, integrated titanium alloy parts; led by Academician Wang Huaming, the pioneer of China's aerospace 3D printing industry.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Enables the production of high-performance, lightweight, and complex metal components that are impossible to manufacture via traditional casting or forging, significantly reducing lead times and material waste.
How They Differentiate
Yudding differentiates through its exclusive role as the industrialization platform for the 'National Engineering Laboratory for Additive Manufacturing of Large Metal Components.' Unlike competitors focusing on mass-market Powder Bed Fusion (PBF), Yudding specializes in Laser Melting Deposition (LMD) for massive, load-bearing titanium alloy structures, leveraging the pioneer research of Academician Wang Huaming.
