Recently, significant progress has been made in the domestic high-end titanium materials sector. A high-end aerospace sponge titanium full-process project with a total investment of 1.2 billion yuan by a certain titanium industry in Chaoyang has recently entered the final sprint stage, and the 130,000-square-meter main factory building has been fully capped. As a national-level manufacturing single champion, the enterprise's first-phase 5,000-ton production line has been officially put into operation, and its output in the first quarter increased by more than 20% year-on-year. After the project reaches full production capacity in 2028, its annual production capacity is expected to soar to 50,000 tons, and it is likely to become a key material supply base for national strategic projects such as domestic large aircraft and the Long March rocket.

Capacity leap: From a single advantage to industry leadership

The core product, small-grained sponge titanium, with its high purity and uniform particle size, has long been serving the domestic C919, Long March series of rockets and other fields. This expansion project adopts a fully intelligent process, covering the entire industrial chain from raw material purification to the preparation of electrolytic magnesium and titanium tetrachloride. After full-scale production in 2028, its annual output of sponge titanium will account for more than 30% of the domestic high-end market, providing a stable raw material guarantee for the global aerospace industry chain.

Technical breakthrough: Breaking through the bottleneck of key materials

Through its independently developed "small-particle sponge titanium preparation technology", the enterprise has achieved a product purity of over 99.9%, meeting the strict material requirements of the aerospace industry. The new production line has introduced an internationally leading electrolytic magnesium recovery system, reducing energy consumption by 15% compared to traditional processes and lowering the production cost per ton by approximately 8%. This technological breakthrough not only enhanced the industry's competitiveness but also provided a referenceable solution for the green transformation of the domestic titanium materials industry.

Strategic value: Ensuring national industrial security

After the project reaches its full production capacity, its annual output value can reach 1.29 billion yuan, creating 667 jobs. This will effectively alleviate the reliance of domestic large aircraft and aerospace projects on imported titanium materials. A relevant official from the local Department of Industry and Information Technology pointed out that this project is a key project for implementing the "strengthening and supplementing the industrial chain" strategy, injecting new impetus into the high-quality development of the regional economy.
