Chuangxin Laser's continuous fiber laser has been selected as a national-level 'Manufacturing Industry Single Champion' and has completed public announcement.

Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology officially announced the list of the ninth batch of 'Single Champion' manufacturing enterprises. Chuangxin Laser was successfully selected due to its outstanding performance in the field of continuous fiber lasers and its leading position in the global market. This is also the first time that a domestically produced continuous fiber laser has been included in the national 'Single Champion' manufacturing enterprises, marking the highest national recognition of Chuangxin Laser's technological strength, market position, and brand value, especially in the area of continuous lasers!

"The 'Manufacturing Single Champion' is hailed as the jewel on the crown of the manufacturing industry, representing the highest level of development in China's segmented manufacturing sectors. This selection is organized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, aiming to guide Chinese manufacturing enterprises to focus on innovation and quality improvement, form a global competitive advantage in more specific product areas, and is one of the core measures to achieve the strategy of building a strong manufacturing nation. Selected companies must meet stringent criteria, including long-term focus on specific niche markets, internationally leading production technologies or processes, and having a global top-ranking market share for a single product."

According to the '2024 China Laser Industry Development Report' by the Wuhan Documentation and Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 2024, Chuangxin Laser ranked first domestically in total revenue, surpassing its laser industry peers. Its laser sales and shipment volumes were also the highest in the country. This market leadership, coupled with the authoritative recognition as a national-level 'Single Champion Enterprise in Manufacturing,' provides indisputable official validation of its top-tier status.

Since its establishment, Chuangxin Laser has successively overcome the core component technologies of fiber lasers and was the first in China to create a vertically integrated model of lasers and core components. After 2012, Chuangxin gradually achieved 100% independent research and development of all fiber laser components, including pump sources, combiners, acousto-optic modulators, fiber Bragg gratings, and mode matchers, thereby breaking dependence on overseas imports and technological monopolies. In 2021, Chuangxin's Wuhan Research Institute built a fiber R&D and production equipment platform and now has the capability to produce fiber in-house, extending vertical integration of laser components to the core materials of lasers.

The core technology of the key components lies in Chuangxin's exclusive patented triple-cladding high-power specialty fiber technology. Compared to ordinary double-clad fibers, the triple-clad fiber adds a special quartz reflective layer that can reflect 90% of the pump light and withstand temperatures of up to 1000°C. By optimizing the fiber core and waveguide design, the laser light field distribution becomes more uniform, effectively suppressing Raman effects. This comprehensively addresses the three major challenges of thermal management, efficiency, and nonlinear effects, allowing it to handle pump light exceeding tens of kilowatts and ensuring the stability of laser output in ultra-high-power continuous fiber lasers.

The triple-clad technology has laid a solid technical foundation for the innovation and development of domestic ultra-high-power continuous fiber laser products, achieving a technological leap for domestic ultra-high-power industrial fiber lasers on the international stage.

As a key driving force in the development of China's fiber laser industry, the growth trajectory of Chuangxin Laser has witnessed the rise of domestic laser technology. In its early days, the company entered the market with pulsed fiber lasers, quickly achieving the top domestic shipment volume thanks to excellent product performance and market performance, securing a solid foothold in its niche. However, Chuangxin Laser did not stop there!

With the continuous accumulation of technological strength, the company has proactively shifted its research and development focus to continuous fiber lasers, gradually achieving a series of breakthroughs in the high-power sector. This not only successfully broke the overseas monopoly in the field of continuous fiber lasers but also positioned the company among the global leaders in industrial-grade ultra-high-power continuous fiber lasers, achieving a leap from catching up to leading.

In order to break through the traditional 6kW power ceiling of domestic lasers and free Chinese laser technology from dependence on overseas technology, Chuangxin Laser began planning the "domestic industrial ultra-high power fiber laser technology" as early as 2017, successfully developing China's first 10 kW laser. In 2018, they designed a brand-new "third-generation" continuous fiber laser technology solution, which had significant advantages over previous solutions in terms of performance, stability, and cost, and 10 kW laser products began to enter the industrial field in small batches. In 2020, Chuangxin Laser set 10 kW as the company's core strategic direction and launched the "10 kW Storm" with a focus on "efficiency." From 2021 to 2022, Chuangxin Laser successively proposed the "High Power, High Brightness" technology route, launched the 10 kW three-in-one product, and released a complete set of core solutions including the 4200W maximum power single pump. In 2024, Chuangxin Laser's 160 kW ultra-high power multimode continuous fiber laser achieved the country's first "160 kW Full Laser Parameter CNAS Testing Certification." The Chinese Society for Optical Engineering organized an expert group to hold a scientific and technological achievement evaluation meeting. The expert group unanimously concluded that this achievement reached an internationally advanced level overall, with the ultra-high power continuous industrial fiber laser output being internationally leading. This is of great significance in promoting Chinese laser equipment to gain a position in the global high-tech competition.

Based on the series of breakthroughs from the inside out mentioned above, Chuangxin Laser has successfully established a presence across the entire ten-kilowatt track, promoting the accelerated penetration of high-power fiber laser technology into the industrial sector, spurring rapid growth across the upstream and downstream laser manufacturing industry chain. As a result, the industry is entering a 3-5 year golden development period, greatly advancing the overall leap of China's laser industry, while also responding to the urgent demand for efficient processing in China's manufacturing sector.

Chuangxin Laser has always been market-oriented and technology-driven, continuously focusing on core laser technologies. At the end of 2023, the company launched the groundbreaking "Digital Spot" process technology named "Zi Di," providing the entire industry with the capability to customize lasers. The Zi Di "Digital Spot" technology transforms the previously discrete single spots into digitally precise controllable spots, where each spot pixel can be independently controlled, ultimately enabling real-time transformation of any spot. At the same time, combined with Chuangxin's self-developed process control system, it allows flexible and independent control of the emission power, frequency, and duty cycle of each pixel light point.

The 'Digital Light Spot' by Zidi precisely meets diversified processing needs for specific and complex application scenarios, helping downstream customers break through the red ocean and open up new tools for high-quality development.

With the implementation of 'digital beam spots' across Chuangxin's continuous fiber laser product lines, the products have been widely used in cutting, welding, cladding, 3D printing, and other fields, and have penetrated into core manufacturing industries such as new energy lithium batteries, photovoltaics, automotive, and consumer electronics, proving that lasers are the best tools of the 21st century.

At every critical juncture of industry transformation, Chuangxin Laser has consistently stood at the forefront, leading the industry with technology and promoting ecosystem prosperity through cooperation, continuously expanding broader and higher-quality development prospects for China's laser industry. The title of 'Single Champion' signifies greater responsibility and commitment. Chuangxin Laser, with a higher strategic vision, is guiding the industry from the 'red ocean' of cost competition toward the 'blue ocean' of 'technology, service, and ecosystem.' This not only fosters the evolution of the enterprise itself but also promotes the healthy, orderly, and sustainable development of the entire industry.

Being selected as a national-level "Manufacturing Industry Single Champion Enterprise" and completing the public announcement not only affirms Chuangxin Laser's past achievements but also reflects expectations for its future development potential. This honor would not have been possible without the long-term trust and support of governments at all levels, partners, and clients, and it is also attributed to every Chuangxin employee who fulfills their duties diligently and innovates courageously; it is their wisdom and hard work that have laid the foundation for the company's development.

In the future, Chuangxin Laser will take this as a new starting point, continue to uphold the mission of 'Laser China Core, Technology Benefiting the Public', further increase investment in research and development, break through more 'bottleneck' technologies, consolidate and expand its leading advantage in the global market, enhance the international competitiveness of Chinese manufacturing, and contribute to the advancement of the global laser industry!
