During the conference, officials from the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization stated that manufacturing serves as the core battlefield of the real economy. Building the “3+6” new industrial system stands as a highlight and priority of Shanghai’s manufacturing development blueprint. Precision and ultra-precision machining technologies act as core enablers of advanced manufacturing, long being a key focus of research, development and application of sophisticated manufacturing technologies worldwide.

Relevant enterprises should focus on R&D, manufacturing, process optimization and market expansion within niche segments, advancing toward the development path of being specialized, refined, distinctive and innovative. They must step up efforts to upgrade product quality and cultivate corporate brands. Meanwhile, enterprises should fully leverage exhibition platforms to share innovative concepts for the advancement of precision machining technologies, seek new opportunities for coordinated technological development, drive integrated industrial technological innovation, and facilitate high-quality industrial growth.

Devoting efforts to a single niche market to deliver specialized, sophisticated, unique and innovative products is the core ethos of SRDI enterprises. Taking SRDI development to the extreme creates hidden champions. Positioned as an exhibition featuring specialized, refined, distinctive and innovative highlights, PME CHINA International Precision Machining Expo will serve as an integrated stage showcasing a full spectrum of precision machining technologies.

Guo Yiwu, Secretary-General of Shanghai Integrated Circuit Industry Association, shared his insights. The integrated circuit industry has achieved groundbreaking innovation from scratch, yet the road ahead remains arduous. Collaborative innovation among upstream and downstream industrial players is urgently required. By combining precision and ultra-precision machining technologies, the industry can pool strengths to fuel leapfrog development and accelerate key technical breakthroughs for integrated circuits.

Jiang Wenbo, Vice President of Shanghai Additive Manufacturing Industry Association, pointed out that additive manufacturing plays an indispensable role in precision and ultra-precision machining sectors. Additive manufacturing enables the production of high-precision, high-quality components that fully meet the stringent standards of precision and ultra-precision machining. Additionally, the technology supports rapid prototyping, delivering fast, efficient product development and design solutions for precision machining enterprises.

Qiu Yunfeng, Deputy Secretary-General of Surgical Implant Committee under China Medical Device Industry Association, elaborated on medical applications of precision machining. Precision machining can shape raw materials into complex geometries tailored for specific medical applications, meeting strict tolerance requirements for permanently implanted human body components. It also enables customized design compatible with certain medical equipment. Implants such as artificial knee prostheses, prosthetic limbs and defibrillators all demand relentless pursuit of perfection to satisfy patients’ personalized clinical needs.

During the project launching ceremony at the press conference, all guests and industry insiders present witnessed this landmark milestone, a defining moment that empowers emerging forces advancing high-quality Chinese manufacturing.

Tailored for clients across vertical niche sectors, PME CHINA International Precision Machining Expo emerged amid industry challenges to build a robust, interconnected ecosystem for precision machining technologies.

Feng Xinhong, Project Director of PME, delivered a keynote speech themed “Build Trust to Create New Opportunities”. She introduced that PME CHINA International Precision Machining Expo is a world-leading international professional exhibition dedicated to precision and ultra-precision machining technologies. Its exhibition scope covers precision grinding, deburring, precision cleaning, surface treatment, special processing, micromachining and advanced materials. Aligned with the national strategic pursuit of high-quality development, PME CHINA is an unmissable international summit for precision machining technologies.

PME CHINA focuses far beyond exhibition display alone. Products and services within the precision machining sector serve as abundant carriers and innovative drivers for the expo’s core value.
