Chinese Metal 3D Printing Firm Xinjinghe Raises to Scale Rocket Part Production

Funding and Scale

Xinjinghe Laser Technology Group has closed a new equity round co-led by CMC Capital's Huawen Qingneng fund and the Chuzhou municipal government. The company plans to direct the capital toward a new aerospace additive manufacturing hub in Chuzhou, with a focus on ramping production capacity for rocket engine components.

Founded in 2015 and based in Huzhou, Zhejiang, Xinjinghe builds industrial metal 3D printing equipment and operates its own printing services. The company covers powder-bed, powder-fed, and wire-fed metal additive processes, with build volumes ranging from hundreds of millimeters to several meters across its machine lineup.

China's Commercial Space Push

China's rapidly expanding commercial launch sector has created intense demand for rocket components. Xinjinghe already supplies thrust chambers, nozzles, and combustion chambers to major Chinese aerospace groups. The new Chuzhou hub is designed to shorten lead times as launch cadence increases across the sector.

The company's dual business model pairs equipment sales with high-value contract printing. Data from its own production runs feeds back into hardware improvements, which the company says creates a tighter iteration loop than pure equipment vendors can match.

Beyond Aerospace

Rocket parts are not the only growth area. Xinjinghe has secured liquid-cooling component orders from a global semiconductor manufacturer and initiated joint development work with a major consumer electronics brand. It has also fielded enquiries for nuclear fusion equipment, suggesting that high-temperature, high-precision metal additive is finding applications across hard-tech industries.

The funding round adds to a busy year for Chinese metal 3D printing. Several domestic players have expanded capacity as the country pushes for greater self-sufficiency in aerospace and semiconductor manufacturing. Xinjinghe's latest move signals that additive manufacturing is moving from niche supplier to strategic infrastructure.
