Make great efforts to build a new powder metallurgy demonstration area

This year's government work report puts forward the need to vigorously develop emerging industries and transform and upgrade traditional industries. “As an important energy base and industrial city in Shandong Province, Laiwu City has made great efforts to develop new materials industry based on the optimization and improvement of the steel industry. In the field of high-performance powder metallurgy, it established the nation’s first strategic alliance for powder metallurgy industry and has established academicians. There are 19 innovative platforms such as workstations, and the powder metallurgy industry covers a wide range of fields from powder metallurgy materials to products. The production capacity of milling and products accounts for about 1/3 and 1/4 of the country's production volume. It is the largest steel powder production base in China.” National People’s Congress Representative Mei Jianhua of Laiwu City, Shandong Province, said.
