China has inaugurated a national innovation center for high-end equipment nondestructive testing in Beijing, designed to enhance intelligent inspection technologies to bolster the smart manufacturing sector.
Situated under the State Administration for Market Regulation, the center is primarily backed by the defense technology research and test center of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation Limited. It focuses on pioneering and common technology research in high-end equipment nondestructive testing, as reported by the People's Daily on Monday.
The center aims to establish a collaborative platform that merges industry, academia, and research entities, according to the report.
"With the rapid advancement of modern high-end equipment, such as aerospace products, nuclear power equipment, and large-scale bridge structures, the application of new materials, processes, and intelligent manufacturing has brought a series of monitoring and evaluation challenges," noted Li Hongmin, chairman of the innovation center and director of the CASIC defense technology research and test center.
"The innovation center will address gaps in these fields by developing advanced NDT technologies while enhancing their intelligence, informatization and standardization," Li also mentioned.
To achieve its goals, the innovation center has assembled a coalition of 46 leading institutions, including Xi'an Jiaotong University, Harbin Institute of Technology, and China Special Equipment Inspection and Research Institute, aimed at driving technological advancements and raising industry standards.
