Lasers are the core components of laser application equipment. With the rapid development of the laser industry as a whole, the laser industry has broad room for development. According to survey data, the global laser market in 2018 was approximately US$13.75 billion, with a compound growth rate of 11.14% from 2009 to 2018.
The laser market in China as a whole started late, but as domestic companies break through core laser technology to achieve large-scale production of lasers and core optical products, as well as encourage lower optical raw material costs, the ability of domestic lasers and laser equipment has exploded.In 2018, China's laser equipment sales revenue reached 60.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 22.2%.
Global laser sales from 2009 to 2018
From 2011 to 2019, laser equipment was sold in China.
1. Industrial Lasers
Global industrial laser sales revenue was US$5.06 billion in 2018, with fiber laser sales revenue accounting for 51.4 percent at US$2.6 billion. Fiber laser efficiency has steadily improved as a result of advances in semiconductor laser pumping technology and active fiber manufacturing technology, demonstrating high market competition in the field of industrial applications, and the market scale has been increasing year by year. The upgrade of the manufacturing industry has stimulated strong market demand for fiber lasers in the Asia-Pacific region, which includes China, Japan, and India, and includes numerous automotive, conventional manufacturing, and semiconductor industries. In 2017, the fiber laser industry in Asia-Pacific accounted for 42.9 percent of the global market, making it the world's largest fiber laser application market.

2. Low power, high power fiber laser
Domestic low-power fiber laser shipment volume rose from 13,000 units in 2013 to 111,000 units in 2018, with a localization rate of 98.2 percent. The target of import substitution has been met. The annual sales volume of medium-power fiber lasers rose from 12,000 in 2013 to 24,000 in 2018, with regional products accounting for 52.1 percent of the market. Foreign laser manufacturers continue to hold a leading role in high-power lasers due to technical advantages. The rate of localization has gradually increased as domestic manufacturers have completed independent research and development of certain high-power fiber laser products and placed them on the market.Domestic high-power fiber lasers accounted for 34.5 percent of all high-power fiber lasers in 2018. Medium and high-power fiber lasers are expected to be fast in the future. Make import substitution a reality. The company's current domestic market share is 12.3%, and its market revenues rank second among domestic companies, so import substitution would profit it greatly.

3. Development trend of fiber lasers
As the application range of fiber lasers in industrial processing continues to expand, the development of the fiber laser industry will present five major development trends in the next few years:
Higher output power has been one of the key research contents of the production of fiber lasers, driven by the need for high-tech fields such as shipbuilding and aerospace, as well as the widespread use of additive manufacturing technologies. Fiber laser output power will increase from 100 Watts to 10,000 Watts, with kilowatt-level growth. High-end production will increasingly depend on industrial machinery with high-power fiber lasers ranging from kilowatts to tens of thousands of watts.
To develop pulsed fiber lasers with high average power and high peak power: In many laser applications, pulsed fiber lasers with high average power and high peak power are required, and high beam quality, low-power lasers are used as seed light sources, double-clad As an amplifier, optical fiber is easy to obtain pulsed laser output with high average power and high pulse energy, which is also a hot and difficult point of current industry research.
Towards the direction of ultrashort pulse fiber lasers: In the field of laser fine processing, such as perforating brittle materials and cutting sapphire glass, ultrafast ultrashort pulse fiber lasers are required. At present, medium and high power ultrafast ultrashort pulse fiber lasers are a hot spot for research and development.
Development towards higher brightness: High-power fiber lasers with high beam quality are in strong demand in scientific research and military fields. The main users are scientific research institutions, universities and government departments. At present, foreign developed countries use high-beam quality high-power fiber lasers as the preferred light source for tactical laser weapons. Special military requirements will promote fiber lasers to develop toward higher power and higher brightness at the same time, that is, to increase output power. At the same time, the quality of the output beam of the fiber laser is maintained.
Development towards modularization and intelligence: In order to meet the various demands for lasers in the market, fiber lasers will gradually move towards serialization, combination, standardization and generalization. Using limited specifications and varieties, by combining and matching different modules, shorten the development cycle of new products and improve product stability and reliability. At the same time, through the use of advanced communication technology and design concepts, remote diagnosis, remote maintenance, remote control, and data statistics of fiber lasers are realized. Through real-time monitoring of the operating status of fiber lasers, potential product failures can be discovered and handled in advance.
