Exclusive | Jinci Haina Completes Tens of Millions of Yuan Series A+ Financing, Focusing on R&D, Production and Sales of Amorphous/Nanocrystalline Ribbons, Magnetic Cores and Soft Magnetic Alloy Powder Cores
Jinci Haina New Material Technology (Nantong) Co., Ltd. recently completed a Series A+ financing round of tens of millions of yuan, led by Chengkai Fund with participation from Yueke Finance and follow-on investment from existing shareholder Hongfu Assets; Linglu Capital served as exclusive financial advisor. The funds will be directed toward construction of a nanocrystalline magnetic powder core production line, product R&D iteration and market expansion, accelerating large-scale volume production of high-end soft magnetic alloy powder cores. Founded in 2018, the company focuses on amorphous/nanocrystalline ribbons, magnetic cores and soft magnetic alloy powder cores, and has established an alloy powder core production base in Tongling, Anhui.
Jinci Haina has built a complete product matrix covering amorphous magnetic powder cores, amorphous composite magnetic powder cores, nanocrystalline magnetic powder cores and nanocrystalline composite magnetic powder cores. Compared with conventional FeSi and FeSiAl products, its magnetic powder cores deliver 20% higher saturation resistance and more than 60% lower high-frequency loss; in the high-frequency band above 30 MHz, the permeability of its nanocrystalline materials can reach up to 12 times that of conventional MnZn ferrites, with 3 times the current handling capability. On the process side, the company's self-developed alloy formulation achieves trace-element proportioning precision of one part in ten thousand, roughly 10 times the industry level, enabling customized formulation development within 3 days; its proprietary composite-modified nano insulating coating technology uses a coating system combining inorganic and organic materials to improve high-temperature resistance and mechanical strength. In September 2025 the company published a patent for an "ultra-small laminated-thickness magnetic core forming device and forming method"; it has been granted 12 invention patents and 8 utility model patents. A magnetic powder core production line with annual capacity in the thousands of tons is under accelerated construction, and ultra-thin nanocrystalline cut magnetic cores have completed validation in a leading server power supply manufacturer's next-generation high-power-density AI server BRM power supply project and entered small-batch delivery.
For the metal powder industry, this development signals a shift in soft magnetic powder cores from FeSi and FeSiAl systems toward amorphous/nanocrystalline systems, with high-power-density scenarios such as AI data centers, new energy vehicles and photovoltaic energy storage creating large-scale demand for high-frequency, low-loss powders. Jinci Haina's entry into the supply chains of leading customers such as Sunlord Electronics, Sungrow, Huawei and Sigenergy means that the batch delivery capability of nanocrystalline magnetic powder cores is beginning to undergo device-level verification, and process requirements for upstream atomization powder production, insulating coating and heat treatment will rise accordingly.
Value for powder buyers: (1) Monitor the volume ramp of amorphous/nanocrystalline magnetic powder cores in AI server power supplies and new energy applications, and assess ahead of time the feasibility of replacing conventional FeSi powder cores; (2) when evaluating suppliers, focus on verifying insulating coating processes and formulation customization response speed, as these two factors directly determine high-frequency loss and batch-to-batch consistency; (3) incorporate the construction progress of the thousand-ton-scale production line into supply assurance assessments, and reserve alternative powder sources before large-scale capacity comes online.

Precision Resource Breaks Ground on Two New Additive Manufacturing Production Facilities, Deploying DMP Flex 350 Triple Three-Laser Systems with 3D Systems
On October 28, 2026, 3D Systems and Precision Resource, a precision stamping and additive manufacturing service provider, jointly announced that the latter has officially broken ground on two new additive manufacturing production facilities: an expansion of its Huntington Beach, California plant that will double existing industrial additive manufacturing capacity, and a new facility in Shelton, Connecticut, the company's first additive manufacturing site in that location. Both facilities are expected to begin operations in the first quarter of 2027, coinciding with Precision Resource's 80th anniversary. The new plants will deploy DMP Flex 350 Triple three-laser metal 3D printing systems and add in-house heat treatment and complex machining capabilities, creating an integrated path from printing to finished parts.
Headquartered in Shelton, Connecticut, and founded in 1947, Precision Resource serves the automotive, heavy industry, medical, semiconductor, commercial, and defense markets. It already has precision blanking, grinding, lapping, laser powder bed fusion, heat treatment, and complex machining capabilities, and previously deployed an AS9100-certified DMP Flex 350 at Huntington Beach. The newly introduced three-laser system continues the same platform architecture, allowing powder parameter packages and grade-matching systems to be reused directly, reducing the time cost of process validation during the new plants' ramp-up phase. Once completed, the two facilities will form a North American metal additive manufacturing production network with existing sites, providing capacity redundancy and geographic backup for commercial and defense customers.
For the metal powder supply chain, the signal sent by this expansion lies in a structural shift on the demand side: the batch deployment of three-laser LPBF equipment means powder consumption per plant will rise significantly, while stringent requirements from defense and commercial customers for batch consistency and certification documentation will push the competitive threshold for powder suppliers from "able to supply" to "able to certify." The "interconnected additive manufacturing network" mentioned by Chris Gratton, Precision Resource's director of additive and equipment operations, essentially requires powder supply to maintain stable output under the same quality system across multiple plant locations.
Value for powder buyers: ① The commissioning of multiple three-laser LPBF machines will directly drive increased procurement of standard-grade powders such as Ti6Al4V, stainless steel, and nickel-based superalloys; the DMP 350 platform's powder parameter packages are mature and the grade-matching threshold is low; ② Supply chains serving defense and commercial customers have high requirements for powder batch consistency and ASTM/AMS certification documentation, so powder suppliers with certification capabilities will benefit first; ③ Watch the powder supplier certification window ahead of the first-quarter 2027 commissioning and lock in sample submission and audit schedules in advance.

AddireenNow Launches End-to-End Additive Manufacturing Production Services for Pure Copper and Other Metals
AddireenNow, the online services division of Addireen, has officially launched end-to-end additive manufacturing production services for industrial metal parts, covering the entire workflow from quotation and design optimization to printing, post-processing, and inspection. Headquartered in Shenzhen, the company entered the market in 2023 with China's first green-laser metal 3D printing solution, capable of processing highly reflective metals such as pure copper, copper alloys, and aluminum alloys. This launch extends its business from equipment and processes to production services. The platform supports materials including pure copper, CuCrZr, AlSi10Mg, 316L stainless steel, and Ti6Al4V, and can handle both pure copper parts with fine features and high-volume production requirements. After users upload CAD files and specify material, quantity, post-processing, and inspection requirements, the platform automatically analyzes the model and provides a preliminary quote and lead-time estimate. Once the order is confirmed, Addireen's engineering team conducts a DfAM review, checking design, tolerances, surface requirements, and other factors and offering optimization suggestions. The company then coordinates the entire production chain from printing through inspection. For the metal additive manufacturing value chain, combining the green-laser route with an online service platform turns processing capability for highly reflective metals into capacity that can be ordered directly, lowering the collaboration barrier from design to delivery for materials such as pure copper and accelerating the validation of powders and process parameters in real order scenarios. Value for powder buyers: (1) The launch of pure copper and CuCrZr printing services provides copper-based powder suppliers with a end-use application outlet they can connect to; (2) The platform also covers AlSi10Mg, 316L, and Ti6Al4V, making it easier for buyers to match multiple powder categories to order requirements; (3) Upfront DfAM review helps clarify material and process requirements, reducing powder selection and trial-and-error costs.
