— Dongguan Laowu Hardware Products Co., Ltd. participated in the industry-university-research collaboration event held in Chang'an Town.

In order to further deepen the collaborative innovation among industry, academia and research, and to open up the channel for the connection between scientific research achievements and industrial applications, in order to assist enterprises in technological upgrading and high-quality development, recently, the city-town collaboration (Chang'an专场) industry-academia-research cooperation matchmaking event was successfully held at the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Dongguan Institute of Materials Science and Technology. Dongguan Laoyou Hardware Products Co.， Ltd. responded positively to the government's call and was invited to participate in this event. Together with experts from research institutions and industry colleagues， they gathered to explore the path of technological innovation and seek new opportunities for industrial development.

This industry-university-research collaboration event focused on the technical demands of enterprises in the new materials sector in Chang'an Town. It brought together top research teams from institutions such as the Dongguan Institute of Materials Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Songshan Lake Materials Laboratory, as well as representatives from several key enterprises in Chang'an Town. The aim of the event was to build a communication bridge among the government, research institutions, and enterprises, promoting precise matching of innovation resources with the industrial frontlines, solving technical problems in enterprises' production and research, and accelerating the industrialization and implementation of scientific research achievements.

At the event site, the representative of Dongguan Laoyou Hardware Products Co., Ltd. first visited the exhibition hall of the Dongguan Materials Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the amorphous research department. They gained a deep understanding of the cutting-edge achievements and technological breakthroughs of the research institute in the fields of new material research and development, advanced manufacturing technology, and material performance optimization. As a hardware products company specializing in the research, production and integrated services of zinc alloy die-casting technology, Laoyou Hardware has been deeply engaged in core businesses such as precision mold making, precision die-casting, and precision part processing. The company mainly focuses on the market of high-speed rate optical module structures such as e-port-SFP-T, OSFP-800G, QSFP-DD 400G, QSFP-SR4 AOC 40G 100G 200G, QSFP-LR4 100G, SFP+AOC DAC 10G 25G, SFP+SR COB 10G 25G, SFP SC 1.25, 1.6T, etc., and has always adhered to driving product upgrades through technological innovation. During the visit, the enterprise representative, based on the company's production reality, focused on the research achievements in the fields of amorphous alloys and advanced metal materials, carefully understood the application potential of new materials in hardware die-casting and structural component manufacturing, and had preliminary communication with the researchers.

During the discussion and cooperation session, the experts from the research team detailed the research directions, technical advantages, and the cooperation models for industries and research in the fields of amorphous materials, micro-processing, and functional ceramics. The representative of Laoyou Hardware focused on the technical demands of the company in areas such as improving the performance of zinc-aluminum alloy materials, optimizing the processing techniques for precision components, and developing high-end structural components. They had one-on-one in-depth discussions with the expert team. The two sides conducted in-depth discussions on core issues such as material formula improvement, process upgrading, product performance testing, and joint technology research. The scientific researchers provided professional solutions and feasibility suggestions for the technical pain points raised by the enterprises, offering strong intellectual support for the subsequent technological innovations of the enterprises.

This participation in the industry-university-research collaboration event organized by the Chang'an Town Government is an important measure taken by Dongguan Laoyou Hardware Products Co., Ltd. to deepen technological innovation and promote cooperation between universities, enterprises, research institutes and enterprises.

From the very beginning, Laoyou Hardware has always adhered to the concept of innovation-driven development, actively relying on the industry-university-research cooperation platform established by the government, continuously strengthening exchanges and cooperation with research institutions, continuously increasing investment in technological research and development, and striving to provide high-quality and high-performance hardware structural component products for the high-end manufacturing of optical module structures. The relevant person in charge of the enterprise stated that in the future, they will take this collaboration event as an opportunity to further deepen the integration of industry-university-research, accelerate the transformation and application of scientific research achievements, continuously enhance the enterprise's independent innovation ability and core technology level, keep up with the high-quality development pace of the manufacturing industry in Chang'an Town, and contribute more to the transformation and upgrading of the Dongguan hardware products industry.

The "bridging" cooperation among industry, academia and research institutions has successfully enabled enterprises' demands to directly reach the laboratory of the materials institute. From technological bottlenecks to collaborative research efforts, it might only require one efficient connection. We look forward to its implementation in the future!
