With the continuous development of aerospace technology and the widespread application of clean room systems, the demand for high-purity stainless steel forgings is gradually increasing. Therefore, the stainless steel forging industry is facing huge development opportunities in response to this trend.
At the national policy level, China has always been committed to improving the level of high-end equipment manufacturing and continuously promoting innovative development of aerospace technology. At the same time, in order to meet the demand for high-end materials in aviation, aerospace, nuclear industry and other fields, the country has also issued several related policies to support the research and development and production of stainless steel forgings with high strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature grades, and other characteristics. For example, the “Notice on Accelerating the Implementation of the Initiative to Promote High-quality Development in Several Priority Areas” issued in 2019 clearly stated that China will strengthen technological innovation in high-end equipment, new materials and other fields, build a high-precision and cutting-edge manufacturing system, and promote high-quality economic development.
In terms of practical applications, high-purity stainless steel forgings have been widely used. For example, in the aerospace field, stainless steel forgings with high strength, corrosion resistance, and the ability to withstand high and low temperatures are essential materials. Especially in satellite manufacturing, the requirements for precision and reliability are extremely high, and high-purity stainless steel forgings with excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance can meet these requirements.
In addition, clean room systems are also an important application area for high-purity stainless steel forgings. With the rapid development of biopharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and other fields, the requirements for cleanliness are becoming higher and higher. High-purity stainless steel forgings have been applied in these areas with high requirements due to their lack of oxide residue, excellent metal surface cleanliness, and corrosion resistance.
In summary, high-purity stainless steel forgings, as a material with high strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature, high pressure, and other properties, have a wide range of application in aerospace and clean room systems, and still have huge potential and development space in the future.
