Sirui Additive (Shenzhen) Technology Co., Ltd. recently completed a Pre-A funding round in the tens of millions of yuan. The round brought in new investors Tongkai Wanwei Venture Capital and consumer electronics industry investors, with existing angel-round shareholder SUSTech Wutong Angel Fund increasing its investment; Detai Capital served as financial advisor. The funds will be used to scale up production of 3D printing metal powder preparation technology for consumer electronics, liquid cooling, and other applications, and to further develop multi-metal powder manufacturing and fine-tuning technologies. Founded in 2023 by Yan Ming, a professor at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), the company focuses on R&D and production of recycled titanium alloy powders and other advanced metal powders. Based on its self-developed metal cold-shaping powder-making technology, Sirui Additive has launched recycled TC4, TA1-4, and TA15 titanium alloy powders, as well as ultra-high-strength and ultra-high-hardness titanium alloy powder products, for applications in 3C electronics, decorative consumer goods, medical, automotive, marine engineering, and aerospace. The company estimates that, compared with virgin titanium alloy powder, the recycled route could reduce raw material costs and energy costs by 40% to 50%, and carbon emissions by 60% to 80%; recycled titanium alloy strength and hardness can be 30% to 60% higher than virgin titanium alloy. CEO Dr. Wang Dawei revealed that an international mobile phone manufacturer has supplied Sirui Additive with ton-level titanium alloy scrap and is validating the entire process from scrap processing and recycled powder production to 3D printing of recycled powder. Metal powder is the foundational raw material for metal 3D printing. Sirui Additive said a key technical barrier in recycled powder is whether scrap can truly be used to produce products that meet customer specifications and achieve stable mass production at reasonable cost, with oxygen content control being a critical indicator affecting titanium alloy performance. The company aims to capture 20% to 30% of the recycled titanium alloy 3D printing powder market and, on that basis, extend its cold-shaping recycling technology to more metal categories.
