The 2026 China Economic “Semi-Annual Report” was released. Who is the industrial “main force” that contributes the most? Who else is “carrying the big flag” in industry? The answer is two key words: equipment manufacturing and high-tech manufacturing. 3D printing equipment and lithium-ion batteries have been sold all over the world in the past six months, and none of the factories have been busy. In the first half of 2026, domestic consumer 3D printing equipment production increased 48.5% year on year; from January to May, 2.94 million units were exported, up 90% year on year, with an export value of 7.82 billion yuan, an increase of 106.8%. China firmly occupies 90% of the global consumer 3D printing equipment market. One company's battery factory in Huizhou is more popular than the 3D printing circuit. The chief R&D engineer said bluntly that production was “busy enough to smoke” in the first half of the year. On the day of the reporter's interview, they received an urgent order of hundreds of millions of yuan and needed to urgently deliver more than 8,000 sets of energy storage battery packs. The company's energy storage battery orders soared 30 times in the first half of the year, and old employees who have been in the business for 15 years have never seen such strong market demand.
