After five years of deep culture, intelligent manufacturing Xikong embarked on a unique and differentiated development path.
On March 17, 2025, the ASIA TCT 3D Printing Addive Manufacturing Exhibition was wide open to the Shanghai National Convention and Exhibition Center. Xi’an aerospace Mechanical and Electrical Intelligent Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as: Xi’an intelligent manufacturing) have unveiled a number of new additive manufacturing equipment, includingHigh precision electron beam printing equipment、Laser bed forge print equipmentas well asA new generation of monitoring system for manufacturing processes for laser additivesThe scene attracted a large number of spectators to stop.
As a specialized and new “small giant” specialized business at the national level, the intelligent manufacturing of Xikong has been incubated and established by the Aero Engine Institute of XI’an Jiaotong University in 2020. After five years of deep culture, it is liable to a starting period with powerful filling of national technological speeds. Its double technological business cards of “forged printing” and “print Dou” also allow more people to know and remember this high -end manufacturing company.
In this TCT Asia exhibition, the resource library also had the chance to attend the wonderful scene of the Xikong smart manufacturing technology technology – “a front and a behind, two laser beams work simultaneously, one for printing, and the other beam is reinforced”, presenting a unique “double light” collaboration process.
The fusion technology of the 3D printing point of the electron beam adopts a punctual fusion strategy, replacing the traditional line scanning method, which can reach a more precise temperature control and reduce the need for temperature gradient and sintering. Based on this process, Xikong Intelligent Manufacturing presented “high -precision electronic beam electronic material printing equipment” can effectively treat various materials such as tial alloy, pure copper and copper alloys, high precision alloy and titanium alloy needs and high -precision titanium alloy.
Four key breakthroughs include:
– High precision training: Supports topology at the submillimetric level and improves the manufacturing capacities of micro-components;
– Printing not supported: The internal cavity and the complex stent do not require additional support, simplifying the post-processing process;
– Direct formation of the bottomless plate: The residual constraint is controlled at ≤ 30 MPa to improve the structural stability of the part;
– Integrated miniaturization: For universities and research institutes, it is suitable for optimizing micro-science parts and the development of new materials.
The equipment has a wide range of applications, covering high -performance crystal turbine blades, engine alloy motor nozzles, additive manufacturing of highly reflective metal materials and effective production of titanium alloy alloy components in the 3C electronic industry. So how does this innovative technology help users resolve manufacturing challenges in these areas? Then take a look together.
1. Turbine blades and high temperature alloy components: double performance and precision improvement
For users of industries such as aerodynamic engines, ships, armored vehicles, etc., the manufacture of directional crystal turbine blades and high temperature components in titanium alumium alloy has long faced the challenges of complex materials and highly precision requirements. The printing technology of electron points in the manufacturing of an intelligent Xikong can obtain a high-performance and high-precision additive manufacturing, helping users effectively improve temperature resistance and the lifespan of components and reducing post-processing costs.
2. Bump and thermos dissipation system
Users of the aerospace industry and users of the energy industry must often take into account complex geometry, thermal conductivity and cost control in the manufacturing process of rocket engine nozzles, heat exchangers, inductances and other components. This technology has excellent treatment capacities for copper and copper alloys, supports a punctual molding of complex structures, considerably reducing manufacturing difficulties, and at the same time, improving production efficiency and reducing overall costs while guaranteeing precision.
3.
For users who use “hard -to -crack” materials such as high temperature alloys based on nickel and high laser reversion metals, traditional manufacturing methods are not only difficult to treat and expensive, but also subject to cracking and other problems. The stability of the process and the adaptability of the materials of the printing technology of the electron points can effectively resolve these points of pain and help users to obtain manufacturing by high -efficiency lots at a lower cost.
4. 3C electronic titanium alloy components: taking into account both finesse and efficiency
Faced with the production of 3C industry components such as titanium alloy mobile hinges and watch dials, users are concerned about how to reduce manufacturing costs and shorten delivery cycles while retaining a good appearance and reliable force. The printing technology of electron points in the manufacture of Xikong Intelligent Manufacturing is only responding to this demand, supports high -efficiency and low cost mass production and provides manufacturers of consumer electronics for more competitive manufacturing solutions.
In addition to the M100 models displayed on the site, Xikong Intelligent Manufacturing also offers a variety of models for users with larger molding sizes, including M200 (forming size 200 × 200 × 350 mm) and M420 (forming size 300 × 300 × 350 mm), to meet the size and production of component needs in different application scenarios.
In the traditional additive manufacturing process, the high heat and temperature gradients can easily cause the formation of the residual traction constraint, which in turn causes defects such as deformation, cracking and holes, affecting mechanical properties and restoring the promotion of the application. In addition, traditional heat treatment has a limited effect on regulating residual stress, and there is a risk of secondary deformation.
In response to this problem, Xikong Intelligent Manufacturing developed the first laser printing equipment in the country in 2024. Now, after more than a year of continuous upgrade, he created a series of complete products covering scientific research in production. The models include i3D – AD150S, I3D – AD / BD300S, i3D – AD600 + S, etc., to meet the needs of performance and large -scale production in different application scenarios.
The basic advantages of this technology are reflected in:
– Optimizing isotropy: Adjust the microstructure by the forging process to considerably improve global performance and reliability;
– Expand freedom of design: Cross the limits of traditional design and suitable for high performance personalized parts;
– Adapt to extreme environments: Widely used in rockets, nuclear energy and other fields with high requirements for corrosion resistance and low constraint;
– Supports medical customization: Combined with AI technology to meet the needs of the production of personalized orthopedic and dental implants.
Here, it is necessary to briefly popularize “technology for improving the laser impact” for everyone. This technology mainly improves fatigue resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of metal materials through plasma shock waves generated by strong laser beams.
In the process of fusion of the additive manufacturing of laser powder beds, intelligent Xikong manufacturing innovative the principle of improving the laser impact, using two lasers – a conventional SLM laser for the formation of melting and the other reinforced laser of the fusion layer. Thanks to this synchronous process, the control of constraints and the optimization of tissues in the additive manufacturing process are obtained, effectively improving overall performance and forming the stability of the parts.
In the field of manufacturing, quality and efficiency of additives are the key. After the popularization of LPBF process equipment, although online surveillance products are diverse, due to the flexible design of parts, numerous printing layers and complex equipment, it is difficult for general products to take great precision and low participation into account. The intelligent manufacturing of Xikong has been rushed for many years and has launched a series of innovative surveillance products covering powdered beds, cast iron pools and transplant ties.
Among them, the powder bed monitoring system adopts the “person type evaluation” algorithm, which can adjust the detection strategy according to the needs of the parts, and the single detection response time is controlled in the 10 ms;
The large grafting system is suitable for 800 mm format parts, supports multi-material printing, and grafting time does not exceed 5 minutes.
In addition, the sampling frequency of the monitoring system of the morphology of the molten pool v2.0 exceeds 3000 images per second, it has an automatic temperature calibration function and is suitable for a variety of material processes.
To summarize:To judge by the exposure, Xikong Intelligent Manufacturing focuses on the breakthrough of the two main technical strangles of the printing of electrons and laser, and has increased investments in the intelligence of quality monitoring systems, trying to obtain a complete improvement in the performance of equipment to the control of production processes. Related equipment has been fitted out for high performance metal structural parts, extreme working conditions applications and personalized manufacturing needs, reflecting the continuous efforts of national manufacturers in independent innovation for basic additive manufacturing technologies.
In addition to the printing and forge DOT printing technology that has been launched, it is understood that Xikong’s intelligent manufacturing is actively planning and developing surface printing and multi-material printing technology, aimed at further perceiving the power of the manufacturing of “gout of strangulation” in the field of manufacturing of high-end equipment such as aerospace power and to continue to consolidate central manufacturing capacities.
