Guangzhou Saisu Technology's Metal Tantalum Implant Additive Manufacturing Project Receives RMB 6.3265 Million Provincial Funding and Up to RMB 3 Million District Matching Funds

2026-09-16 · Impact score: 45

On September 16, the Guangzhou Huangpu District (Guangzhou Development District) Science and Technology Innovation Bureau announced the 2026 second-half science and technology project matching funding review results (High-Quality Development 30 Measures - 2024 Edition) (Sui Kai Ke [2026] No. 108): Saisu Technology (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd. (renamed from Guangzhou Sailong Additive Manufacturing in September 2025) had its 'Additive Manufacturing Customized Metal Tantalum Implant Industrialization Technology Research and Application Demonstration' project approved at the provincial level, with superior-level funding of RMB 6.3265 million; based on the 50% matching rate for provincial projects, capped at RMB 3 million, RMB 2.5306 million was already matched in the first half of 2026, and this allocation adds RMB 469,400, bringing the cumulative total to the RMB 3 million cap. On September 18, the district Science and Technology Innovation Bureau issued a funding notice; in the same batch, Guangzhou Medprin Regenerative Medical Technologies' 'Additive Manufacturing of Bioactive Bone Repair Materials' received RMB 520,000 in matching funds, totaling RMB 989,400 for the two enterprises. The project was part of the Guangdong Provincial Key Area Research and Development Program (No. 2018B090906003), led by the former Guangzhou Sailong with participation from the Northwest Institute for Nonferrous Metal Research, Xi'an Sailong, and other units. It passed acceptance in May 2024, yielding achievements including medical-grade spherical tantalum powder, medical powder bed electron beam additive manufacturing equipment, and forming process packages. Saisu Technology possesses electron beam selective melting (SEBM) and PREP powder production technologies. Its electron beam 3D-printed porous tantalum hip joint filling block system received Class III medical device registration certification from the National Medical Products Administration in February 2026; its medical-grade spherical tantalum powder was named a 2025 China Additive Manufacturing Quality Product. Value for powder buyers: 1) Tantalum powder is a high-value, niche product; the certification of customized tantalum implant medical devices will drive volume growth for medical-grade spherical tantalum powder; 2) Policy matching funds (provincial + district totaling up to approximately RMB 9.32 million) support the iteration of its SEBM equipment and powder production lines, driving parallel growth in upstream tantalum raw material and powder processing demand; 3) The medical additive manufacturing niche continues to receive increased government funding, serving as a reference for powder manufacturers' medical-grade portfolio planning.

US Metal Powder Maker Amaero Lists on Nasdaq: IPO Priced at $4.25 to Raise $20 Million, Circuit Breaker Triggered on First Day

Amaero, a US-based supplier of titanium and refractory metal powders for defense and aerospace 3D printing, completed its Nasdaq cross-listing pricing on October 15, 2026: 4.7 million shares at $4.25 per share, raising approximately $20 million under the ticker AMRO. The offering price was slightly below the ASX latest close converted value of about $4.31. Baird and Lake Street Capital Markets served as joint book-running managers. On the first day of trading, the stock rose as much as 7%, triggering a stock exchange circuit breaker. Headquartered in McDonald, Tennessee, Amaero produces spherical refractory metal and titanium alloy powders for additive manufacturing (covering niobium, tungsten, tantalum, molybdenum, rhenium, and titanium alloys) and manufactures large near-net-shape components via powder metallurgy hot isostatic pressing (PM-HIP). Its products target hypersonic weapon systems, satellite propulsion, strategic missiles, aerospace, and medical fields. The company initially filed in September to offer 7.5 million shares and raise over $50 million (at a converted price of $7.06), but later adjusted the scale due to market conditions, with the final raise shrinking about 60% from the original target. For the 12 months ended June 30, 2026, the company reported revenue of approximately $12 million. Net proceeds from this offering are about $15.7 million, of which up to $10 million is planned for capital equipment purchases over the next 12 months, with the remainder for working capital and R&D. Value to powder buyers: 1) Amaero is a core US domestic supplier of spherical refractory metal and titanium alloy powders; the IPO will support its capital expenditures and capacity expansion, potentially enhancing supply stability for overseas customers purchasing its specialty powders such as niobium, tungsten, tantalum, and rhenium; 2) The PM-HIP large-component route is expanding concurrently, which will increase in-house use of upstream spherical powders and change the market supply structure; watch for subsequent equipment procurement announcements; 3) Note the going-concern risks and loss status disclosed in the prospectus.

Yangchun Quanda Metal Products Powder Metallurgy Project Filed: Water Atomization Plant to Produce 3,000 Tons of Metal Powder Annually

On October 15, 2026, Yangchun Quanda Metal Products Co., Ltd. completed the enterprise investment project filing for its powder metallurgy project (filing application date: October 15). The project is located in the Guangdong Yangjiang Yangchun Industrial Transfer Park, with a total investment of approximately RMB 30 million, leasing a plant area of 2,868.7 square meters. The main production equipment planned for the project includes medium-frequency furnaces, high-pressure water atomization towers, powder dryers, and injection molding equipment. The primary purchased raw materials are various alloys and stainless steel. The production process is as follows: alloys and stainless steel are melted in medium-frequency furnaces, water-atomized under high pressure, dried, then formed by MIM injection molding or press molding. After passing inspection, the products are packaged and stored. Once completed, the project will produce 3,000 tons of metal powder annually. Value for powder buyers: ① Adds 3,000 tons/year of stainless steel and alloy water-atomized powder capacity, serving both MIM and press-sintering downstream sectors, providing a nearby supply option in the Pearl River Delta MIM industry cluster; ② The small-scale water atomization line has a short commissioning cycle; attention should be paid to whether its stainless steel grades and particle size distribution match mainstream MIM requirements; ③ The investment scale is relatively small, so supply capacity will mainly serve as a regional supplement.
