[SMM Titanium News] Recently, a project dedicated to the research, development, and production of titanium alloy materials has officially landed in the Xi'an High-Tech Zone. The project is invested and implemented by a national-level high-tech enterprise, aiming to fill the technological gaps in specific niche areas within China. The investing enterprise is a subsidiary established in Xi'an in June 2022 by a publicly listed firm in China, focusing on integrating advantageous resources in the titanium industry. The enterprise is mainly engaged in the R&D, production, sales, and intelligent manufacturing of rare metal materials and products, with its products widely applied in high-tech fields such as aerospace, naval vessels, military industry, energy, and 3C electronics. It possesses mature capabilities in the R&D and automated intelligent manufacturing of rare metal materials like titanium alloys and high-temperature alloys, while also having profound technological accumulations in the design, development, and manufacturing of intelligent production lines. Currently, the preliminary research work for this titanium alloy project has been basically completed, and it is about to enter the small-batch pilot production stage. The main target applications of the project's products are key components such as external cooling pipes, ACC bleed air ring pipes, and cooling bleed air pipelines for aerospace vehicles. The project's R&D involves multiple critical technological links, incl
