Revolution in the abrasives industry
At present, the environmental protection continues to increase, the price of raw materials, the rising cost of labor, the real estate fever, the downturn of the automobile industry, the trade war and other hot words are filled with the entire abrasive industry. Compared with the past, the external environment of the abrasives industry is for enterprises. Traditional production operations have brought enormous challenges. With the improvement of environmental protection requirements and the upgrading of consumption structure, keenly capturing new trends in consumption is the “golden key” to the success of the company. We can see from the 5th Zhengzhou Sanmao Exhibition that more and more enterprises are following the changes in market demand. Focus on technological innovation, flexibly adjust product structure, and explore the market "new blue sea" in "change".
The revolution in the abrasives industry is not only the product itself, but also the business model and service concept. The only constant is that whoever owns the user will have the market and whoever has the future. From a technical and market perspective, as the manufacturing industry shifts to mid-to-high end, the demand for high-speed, high-efficiency, precision, long-life, and environmentally-friendly abrasives will continue to increase.
Taking aluminium oxide as an example, the current segmental sand and granular sand market is basically transparent. The profit for the production enterprises is not large, and the market demand is also shrinking. The future of aluminium oxide products still lies in the deep processing of calcination, shaping and coating.

Taking brown corundum as an example, the current segmental sand and granular sand market is basically transparent. The profit for the production enterprises is not large, and the market demand is also shrinking. The future of brown corundum products still lies in the deep processing of calcination, shaping and coating.
Taking the grinding wheel as an example, from the point of view of grinding objects, with the continuous development of basic materials, softer or harder and harder materials will become the main battlefield of the grinding wheel. This change will force the grinding wheel to be super hard or Super soft direction development, of course, no matter which direction the material is going to soft and hard, the super hard material grinding wheel will definitely shine. In addition, as the workpiece has higher requirements on surface quality, fine-grained and super-fine polishing will become one of the future development directions of ordinary abrasive grinding wheel and super-hard material grinding wheel. From the analysis of grinding equipment, the precision of modern grinding machines is getting higher and higher, and the rotating speed is getting faster and faster, which also requires the grinding wheel to develop in super-fine and high-speed direction. In terms of user demand, customization is also one of the future development directions of the grinding wheel. Different grinding environments have different requirements for all aspects of the grinding wheel. Under this circumstance, the influence of the national standard on the grinding wheel will gradually decrease, and the non-standard product will be reduced. The application will continue to expand.
Taking coated abrasives as an example, products that are efficient, labor-saving, and suitable for automated operations, such as: ceramic corundum abrasive belts, zirconium corundum abrasive belts, diamond abrasive belts, etc.; environmentally friendly, less polluting products, such as: grid sand cloth, Sand disc products, etc.; used in precision polishing fields such as 3C electronics, automobiles, home improvement consumables, such as: polyester film belt/sand disc, elastic sand film and metal wire drawing belt, plate polishing belt sand disc, etc., market The prospects are promising and the potential is huge.
It is true that there is still a gap between us and the world's strong abrasives, but China's abrasives have moved because of “new”, and the pace of industrial transformation to “excellent” has never stopped. Relative to the development of the world's abrasives and strong countries, we are still in the "juvenile" stage. Juvenile means that we still have a lot to learn; juvenile means we are full of vigor; juvenile means we are pioneers of innovation; juvenile means that we are hope for the future. The juvenile is strong and the country is strong, and the juvenile Chinese abrasives are strong in China!
