Editor's Note | In recent years, Henan has insisted on putting innovation at the logical starting point of development and the core position of modern Henan construction, and firmly follows the "Huashan Road" of innovation-driven high-quality development.

In order to open up the key link from the laboratory to the production line, the Henan Provincial Development and Reform Commission recently announced the first batch of Henan Provincial Industrial Innovation Centers. Lead industrial development through scientific and technological innovation, and promote the transformation of Henan manufacturing to Henan creation, Henan speed to Henan quality, and Henan products to Henan brand.

In order to fully demonstrate the industrial innovation achievements of our province and help build a "reserve team" of the National Industrial Innovation Center, starting from September 5, Dahe Daily and Dahe Finance Cube jointly with the Henan Provincial Development and Reform Commission launched a special report to welcome the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China— We conducted a series of reports on the first batch of provincial industrial innovation centers and conducted on-site visits to 8 centers.

[Dahe Daily·Dahe Cai Cube] (Reporter Wang Leibin Text and Picture) A few days ago, the Henan Provincial Development and Reform Commission announced the list of 8 provincial industrial innovation centers.

is led by Zhengzhou Abrasives and Abrasives Grinding Research Institute Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Sanmile Institute), and forms an innovative alliance with Henan Yellow River Cyclone Co., Ltd. and Henan Power Diamond Co., Ltd. to jointly build Henan The Provincial Superhard Materials Industry Innovation Center is among them.

As a major production province of superhard materials , what is the significance of Henan’s construction of a superhard materials industry innovation center? How to form an innovation consortium? How do companies involved in building innovation centers play a role?

html From September 7th to 9th, a reporter from Dahe Daily and Dahe Cai Cube visited Henan Province Superhard Materials Industry Innovation Center and its leading construction unit Sanmo Institute to visit the construction of the industrial innovation center.

Superhard materials output accounts for more than 80% of the country

Henan has a relatively concentrated and relatively complete high-tech industrial chain

Superhard materials and products are important cornerstones to support the construction and development of the national economy, and are known as the "tite" of modern industry ”, Widely used in aerospace, defense and military industry, high-end CNC machine tools and other fields. After nearly 60 years of development, my country has developed into a major producer of superhard materials.

As the birthplace, technology center, radiation source and industrialization base of China's superhard materials and abrasives industry, the output of superhard materials and products produced in Henan accounts for more than 80% of the country. Therefore, there is a saying in society that "the global market for superhard materials and abrasives look at China, and the Chinese market look at Henan."

According to Sun Guannan, director of the Science and Technology Development Department of Zhengzhou Abrasives and Grinding Research Institute Co., Ltd., the global superhard materials market is basically dominated by my country, among which artificial diamond sales account for more than 90% of the world market.

was founded in 1958. It has successfully developed my country's first artificial diamond, the first cubic boron nitride , the first artificial diamond polycrystalline, the first cubic boron nitride polycrystalline, and A series of superhard material products that fill the gap in China and industry-specific production and testing equipment and instruments, etc. The acquisition and promotion of these achievements have promoted the formation of my country's abrasive tools and superhard material products industry, and have made important contributions to the development of the industry and related application fields.

public data shows that the current domestic superhard materials, the three-strong Zhongnan Diamond , Yellow River Cyclone and Power Diamond are all Henan enterprises. Among them, the Yellow River Cyclone is the largest diamond production base in China, with its output ranking first in the country and among the world. The "Tornado" brand series products are best sold in developed countries such as Japan, the United States, Europe and Southeast Asia.

Sanmosou, Yellow River cyclone, and power diamonds form an innovation consortium

Together build a superhard material industry innovation center

Although my country is a major country in superhard materials and products, it is not a strong country. The industrial technology level is still as internationally employed. First, there is a greater level gap. Some high-end superhard material technologies are still in the hands of countries such as the United States and Japan.

is mainly reflected in: basic innovation capabilities need to be improved, innovation systems and mechanisms need to be improved; key common basic technologies and cutting-edge technologies in the industry are weak; innovation resources are relatively scattered, innovation results are not transformed smoothly, and various units of innovation chains such as universities and enterprises have not been formed. The combined efforts have led to a slow pace of industrial innovation and upgrading.

Therefore, Henan's superhard materials industry urgently needs to build a high-level industrial collaborative innovation platform, further improve the technological innovation system, and lead the promotion of industrial transformation and upgrading.

According to the list of 8 provincial industrial innovation centers announced by the Henan Provincial Development and Reform Commission, Sanmo will take the lead in forming an innovation consortium with the Yellow River Cyclone and Power Diamond to jointly build the Henan Superhard Materials Industry Innovation Center.

Regarding the establishment of the innovation consortium, Sun Guannan said that after years of development, each company has accumulated a large number of innovation resources such as experts and technology, forming its own technological advantages and product directions. An innovation alliance is to gather the strengths of each company and gather together to form an innovative synergy.

"The establishment of an innovation consortium is conducive to solving the technical problems of industrial development and leading the high-quality development of industrial clusters." Sun Guannan said.

As the only scientific research institute in the industry, Sanmill Institute has long carried out technical research and results transformation of superhard materials and superhard material products. It has established good cooperative relationships with domestic universities, research institutes and enterprises, and has obvious resource advantages.

Yellow River Cyclone mainly engages in superhard materials and products, superhard composite materials and products, etc., mainly including industrial diamonds, cultivation diamonds, grinding wheels, , knives, drill bits, saw blades, etc.; used in diamond tool manufacturing, jewelry, Ceramic processing, exploration and mining, building materials processing, optical glass and gem processing, electronic and electrical manufacturing, automotive parts manufacturing and other fields.

Power Diamond main products include incubation diamonds, diamond single crystals and diamond micro powder. Cultivating diamond products are mainly used to make diamond rings, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and other light luxury jewelry; diamond single crystal products are mainly used to make diamond tools to make diamond tools for non-metal hard and brittle materials saws such as cemented carbide , stone, ceramics and glass. Cutting, cutting and polishing, etc.; diamond micropowder products are mainly used in cutting and polishing of photovoltaic new energy and third-generation semiconductor silicon carbide and other fields.

According to Sun Guannan, in addition to these three units, there are also a group of universities, research institutes, etc., who will participate in the construction of the innovation center.

Build an internationally first-class superhard materials and products original innovation source

Lead and support the high-quality development of the industry

So, what exactly will the Industrial Innovation Center do?

According to reports, the Industrial Innovation Center will focus on the development trend of "high-end, serialized, intelligent and green" in the superhard materials and products industry, combine "production, education, and research" to jointly conquer a number of key core technologies and solve the problem of "study, education, and research". The bottleneck problem that restricts the high-quality development of the industry and the autonomy of high-performance basic materials in downstream applications provides source technology supply for industrial development.

In terms of results transfer and transformation, it has introduced a number of major scientific and technological achievements in universities and institutes, and relied on the central strength to transfer or transform the results, forming a leading domestic and international first-class new product, and achieving the economic benefits of scale .

" Collaborate with the innovation forces of industry universities and leading enterprises, publish industrial technology innovation and development plans, and propose major technological innovation directions for industrial development. Build a high-level industry technology exchange platform, hold professional technology forums, youth technology forums and other activities to enhance the industry's popularity and Influence. "Sun Guannan said that he will also explore the joint training mechanism of graduate students, sign a joint training agreement for graduate students, and cultivate high-level postdoctoral fellowship, and achieve remarkable results in the construction of young talent teams.

In addition, the Industrial Innovation Center will also formulate relevant management systems such as operating mechanisms, project management, results transformation, open cooperation, talent introduction and training to stimulate personnel's innovative vitality.

Sun Guannan said that he hopes the government will give more opportunities to participate in related industrial planning and major project suggestions. At the same time, we will increase support for the introduction of leading talents in the superhard materials industry.

"In terms of policy, it is recommended to focus on the training of young technical personnel for superhard materials and products. At the same time, we hope that the government will provide continuous financial support to the Industrial Innovation Center to accelerate the transfer and transformation of industrial achievements." Sun Guannan said.

According to the development plan of the Industrial Innovation Center, by 2025, the construction of the Industrial Innovation Center will make important progress, and the various operating mechanisms and are sound systems, breaking through a number of key common technologies in the industry "bottleneck" and significantly improving the independent innovation capabilities.

"Build into an internationally first-class original source of innovation for superhard materials and products, build an industrial technology research and development platform, an industrial innovation comprehensive service platform, a highland for the output of major achievements, a highland for the independent intellectual property rights and technical standards, and a highland for the cultivation of high-end industrial talents, becoming a country The first echelon of strategic scientific and technological forces in the field of new materials will comprehensively enhance the core competitiveness of my country's superhard materials and products, and lead and support the high-quality development of the industry."
