Status Quo of China Synthetic Diamond Industry 2. 3 Application of Synthetic Diamond 2. 3. 3 Machinery, Mining, Energy China’s economic growth has entered a mid-stage of transformation, several endogenous forces such as rising labor costs, target market transferred from export to domestic demand, and acceleration of urbanization, coupled with the subjective promotion of policies, China’s equipment manufacturing industry is accelerating the upgrading.According to the downstream demand structures of diamond tools in China, the United States and Japan (the shares of manufacturing industry in the onsumption of diamond tools are **% **% and **% in China, the United States and Japan respectively), diamond products have huge growth potential in China. Machinery and Automobile: Diamond tools are in the mid-stage of application promotion in the U.
S. and European markets, and are in the initial stage of promotion in China. It’s predicted that diamond tools will see the highest sales growth rate in the field of machinery in China, which will remain as high as **% in 2008-2013.Shares of Global Complex Chip (for PCD/PCBN Cutting Tools) Market Source: ResearchlnChina 2 Mine and Oil Field: Synthetic diamond tools achieved market penetration over **% in China’s oil extraction industry, but most of them are diamond drills imported from foreign countries or made by Joint ventures. The stage of import substitution is to come; large-scale promotlon nasn’t Deen carrlea out In tne TlelO 0T coal mlnlng, ana the integration of coal mines will promote the application of synthetic diamond tools.Polycrystalline diamond tools mainly take advantage of the excellent anti-impact strength of diamond with large crystals, so they can be used for cutting. In general, here are three categories of demand: the PDC cutter of oil/gas well drill bit or PDC bit; PDC cutter for mining; and lathe tool / milling cutter (metal processing involves six processes, namely, lathe, milling, planing, grinding, drilling and boring.
Polycrystalline diamond can only be used to manufacture tools in simple shapes).PDC cutter of oil/gas well drill bit or PDC bit is the largest application in the U. S. and European markets, and also an application with the biggest challenge to the quality of composite chip. According to the statistics of the total depth of wells dug in the U.
S. in 2010, about 65% used diamond drills. Shares of Global Oil / Gas-use PDC Market 3 Output Value of Chinese Composite Superhard Materials and Market Size of Global Products (Unit: RMB bn) As technology advances, diamond drills can be used in wider geological scope.Although PDC is harder than cemented carbide, it has a problem in the combination of polycrystalline diamond and substrate.
In addition, different principles of diamond drill breaking rock lead to drill losses of varying degrees, and diamond drills are in a disadvantageous position in breaking hard rock. During the development of the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, high-speed rail was recognized as a development priority among the strategic emerging industries during the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period. The localization of high-speed rail parts has entered a pressing stage.As the Ministry of Railways plans to achieve localization over 80% during the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period, and the eight-year cooperation agreement signed by the Ministry of Railways and the world’s top three giants in 2003 will expire in 2012, the localization of high-speed rail equipment and parts is imperative. The ocalization of high-speed rail brake is expected to start around 2012, and the market capacity is expected to reach about RMB** billion in 2015.

3 Development Strategy As the new entrant in the industry, the monocrystalline silicon capacity of Sino Crystal Diamond is far from that of Huanghe Whirlwind.Sino Crystal Diamond plans to give play to equipment advantage in monocrystalline synthesis, adopt its independently developed HJ-650 reinforced diamond synthesis compressor, and newly construct the project with the annual capacity of 640 million carat high-grade diamond. Sino Crystal Diamond also intends to set up the HJ-IOOO larger volume ompressor which is currently amid pilot production so as to enhance its equipment edge.
8 Furthermore, Sino Crystal Diamond has expanded the downstream product market.Large groups of products have accomplished the early stage R, the sector of diamond line for polycrystal silicon cutting in the PV industry has fulfilled the trial production of samples, and is anticipated to acquire the mass production in 2013 so as to meet the highly increased demand for diamond tools. Sino Crystal Diamond plans to invest RMB** million in the project of “PV Dedicated Micron Diamond Line” with the main body of Zhengzhou Sino-Crystal Diamond Joint- stock Co. , Ltd, its subsidiary, and the construction scale of 0. 3mm 14400km/a and 0.
12mm 132000km/a. After the completion and production of the project, the annual revenue can hit RMB** million, the gross margin over 50%, and the net profit margin around 34. 8%.
As a substitute for the traditional cutting mode of steel wire+ cutting material *cutting fluid, the diamond line cutting mainly needs to solve the problems of breakage rate and wafer surface smoothness. The substitute space will be huge if the technical breakthrough can be made.
