Foshan City gives priority to supporting common technology development enterprises in the industrial aluminum industry to declare special funds

Recently, it was learned from the Municipal Bureau of Science and Technology that in 2009, the special fund project for the development of science and technology in Foshan City was formally launched. This year, the government's financial support will be tilted toward the four major areas of industrial aluminum industry common technology, ceramic industry common technology, energy conservation and emission reduction, and public safety science and technology support.

Foshan is a global aluminum enterprise, production capacity, talents and technology-intensive areas, with concentrated production capacity, talented personnel, advanced equipment, advanced technology, complete facilities, and cluster development. It has become a global aluminum production and processing center. Foshan has a high concentration of aluminum industry, a complete industrial chain, and strong supporting industries. It has formed a large industrial cluster with obvious industrial scale advantages and brand advantages. However, the aluminum industry in Foshan is still dominated by building profiles. The proportion of high value-added aluminum products is small, and the technical and economic indicators are not high. The gap between the overall technology and equipment level and the international advanced level is still relatively large.

At present, the development of the Guangdong aluminum industry is undergoing an important transformation period. While continuing to maintain Foshan's superior architectural aluminium profile aluminum processing industry, it is also accelerating the development of high-value-added, high-tech industrial aluminum processing to meet international financial needs. The impact of the crisis has enabled companies to change from output-based growth to quality-based efficiency, and then to technological innovations.

Based on this background, the city's science and technology department determined that this year will give the key support to overcome the "common technology of industrial aluminum industry."

It is understood that this project is based on the research and development needs of the “Aluminum Industry Technology Roadmap of Guangdong Province” to determine the “research and application of high-performance, high-precision, ultrafine microstructure aluminum alloy materials” and “development and application of infrared heating equipment”. 4 major research and development topics.
