1. As the key part of laser cutting equipment, motion control system has high reliability and real-time. It must ensure the fault-tolerant ability, and can self-correct the parameters, so that the system can operate normally and stably. At the same time, it must also meet the accuracy requirements of the system for real-time communication and have the ability to respond quickly to operational tasks. In addition, the motion control industry is also developing in the direction of intelligence and flexibility, continuous improvement of control accuracy and speed, and networking technology, which puts forward higher requirements for control system enterprises.
2. The galvanometer product is composed of optical scanning head, electronic drive amplifier and optical reflector, which is mainly used with galvanometer control system. The galvanometers can be divided into 2D galvanometers and 3D galvanometers, of which 2D galvanometers are mainly used for laser two-dimensional surface treatment, drilling and other micro-processing, as well as additive manufacturing and other scenes; 3D galvanometer adds 3D processing function, which is mainly used for laser 3D surface treatment, carving, cleaning and other micro-processing, as well as welding, additive manufacturing and other scenes.
The release of downstream demand drives the market scale of galvanometer products to accelerate growth. With the release of demand in downstream applications such as laser welding, laser cleaning and laser marking, the market scale of laser galvanometers in China is expected to accelerate. According to relevant statistics, the market size of laser galvanometers in China has increased to 840 million yuan in 2021, up 9.9% year on year.
3. High-end galvanometers rely on imports, and high precision and customization become the future development direction. According to statistics, from 2014 to 2022, the number of galvanometer manufacturers in China increased from less than 10 to more than 20. Among them, the head manufacturers include Han's Laser, Century Sonny, Jinhaichuang, Zhibotech and other enterprises, but the products are mainly concentrated in the middle and low end, and the high-end market is occupied by foreign enterprises such as CTI in the United States, Scanlab and Raybase in Germany. In the field of high-precision marking, scribing and drilling, there is still a large gap between domestic galvanometers and foreign manufacturers. In the future, domestic galvanometer enterprises will gradually enhance the production capacity of high-precision and customized galvanometers, increase the proportion of high-end market and further enhance profitability.
