The sales of injection molding technology and market analysis

The sales volume of Chinese Metal Injection Molding industry is 4.85 billion RMB in 2015 year,among of 67% sales from 5 enterprises.The report said that the sales of 15 companies has beyond 40 million, the other are small-scale factories.

Chinese steel structure China steel structure association of powder metallurgy branch reported the newest  progress of metal injection molding in China.In recent year, MIM industry is growing fast. Many of people enter this industry in each year.

The report say that there is about  more than 130 MIM factory at present in China,don’t including Taiwan.With 65 of the pearl river delta, Yangtze river delta have 35, Beijing, tianjin, hebei and shandong area 20.The rest is located in hunan and other areas.

Regarding the application,the biggest market of metal injection molding  is mobile phone parts,and then computer parts,wearable devices,auto parts,medical machine parts, and electronic tool parts and so on.

The output of metal injection molding material is 6000-7000 tons.the import material was about 3000-3500 tons in 2015 year.

In China, the most widely machining MIM material is stainless steel and low alloy steel,about occupy 80% output,but its mostly stainless steels are 316L and 17-4PH,tungsten material occupy about 10%,the other 5% is hard alloy,including alloy and titanium alloy.

We expect that MIM material will have more complex in the future,including stainless steel without nickel,Aluminum etc.
