en.Wedoany.com Reported - Guangzhi Technology has won the 2026 Ringier Technology Innovation Award for Laser Processing in the Annual Innovation Team category, awarded by Ringier Trade Media, for its 1000W high-power continuous-wave green fiber laser. After receiving the award, Huang Zhihua, Chairman of Guangzhi Technology, shared the technical details and market insights of the product. Founded in 2018, Guangzhi Technology started with fiber MOPA (Master Oscillator Power Amplifier) and has since expanded horizontally into areas such as fiber green lasers and ultrafast lasers.

The challenges of high-power continuous-wave green lasers primarily lie in three aspects: frequency doubling efficiency, thermal management, and nonlinear suppression. By optimizing oscillator technology, Guangzhi Technology has enabled the continuous operation to naturally generate characteristics similar to "fragmented pulses," where the effective peak power is slightly higher than the average power, thereby improving frequency doubling efficiency. The company's R&D team has repeatedly refined fiber coiling and heat dissipation structures, and introduced a power closed-loop feedback system based on green light to control power instability caused by polarization state fluctuations at high power. In terms of beam modes, Guangzhi Technology has developed a dual-compatible structure for single-mode and multi-mode operation. The flat-top beam profile of multi-mode output is more suitable for certain welding scenarios, and advancements in transmission fiber materials have made long-distance high-power green light transmission feasible.

This laser has been applied in scenarios such as copper foil cutting, lithium battery electrode processing, copper welding, and copper 3D printing. Case studies show a yield improvement of over 30%. Huang Zhihua stated that domestic green lasers face the practical threshold of needing iterative validation of performance with customer scenarios, and costs remain relatively high, with the localization rate of core materials and components needing improvement. Recently, Guangzhi Technology's fiber green laser bench verification power has exceeded 2.5kW, but current market demand is primarily for stable engineering products within 1kW. The company is conducting deep customization development around specific customer industry needs to refine its green laser product matrix.

Regarding market prospects, Huang Zhihua believes that the green laser cutting upgrade for new energy lithium battery electrodes may be implemented more quickly, while AI heat dissipation-related components are still in the validation stage, with market volume growth expected in 2027 or 2028. Guangzhi Technology's market positioning is to serve solely as a light source supplier, collaborating with equipment manufacturers and end users to optimize laser design and process solutions.

The company started with fiber MOPA products and has built a competitive moat by horizontally expanding its product categories. Huang Zhihua stated that Guangzhi Technology is one of the companies with the most extensive product lines among domestic industrial laser manufacturers, having highly adapted to the business model of new product expansion and industry customization. After the new base is operational, the green laser production line will be further expanded, becoming an important business segment for the company in the future.

Regarding the intense competition in the laser industry, Huang Zhihua believes that "involution" stems from the high maturity of domestic capital, talent, and industrial capacity, with the market shifting from incremental expansion to stock competition. However, the direction of "more, faster, better, and cheaper" presents a fair challenge to every company. High-quality production capacity is always scarce, and quality customers are willing to pay for quality products. Guangzhi Technology adheres to stable operations and does not rely on capital subsidies to scale up.
