BREAKTHROUGH! China Shocks US with World’s Largest 50,000-Ton Vertical Extruder, 80 times Cheaper!
China has long been recognized as a resource-rich nation, especially in steel production. Yet, despite being the largest steel producer by volume, China has faced persistent challenges in achieving self-sufficiency in high-quality seamless steel pipes. These specialized pipes, vital for industries such as nuclear power, offshore drilling, and aerospace, have historically been imported at high costs, largely due to technological blockades by the United States, Germany, and Japan. With imports priced at up to $20,000 per ton, China’s reliance on foreign suppliers posed a significant risk to its rapid development and strategic industries.
In response, China launched an ambitious project to break free from this dependency. In 2020, after years of research and investment, China North Industries Group Corporation (Norinco) successfully developed a 50,000-ton black metal vertical extrusion machine, the world’s most powerful. This milestone allowed China to produce large-diameter, thick-walled seamless steel pipes domestically, marking a critical turning point in the nation’s manufacturing capabilities. By mastering the technology, China eliminated its reliance on foreign suppliers, enhancing its national security and industrial independence.
This video explores the journey behind China’s breakthrough in heavy-duty steel pipe production. From the challenges posed by technological blockades to the monumental success of Norinco’s indigenous extrusion machine, we analyze how China’s steel industry has transformed. The success not only impacts critical sectors like energy, military, and aerospace but also demonstrates China’s strength in high-end manufacturing and innovation, positioning the country as a global leader in heavy machinery.
