From July 18-20, 2025, the global mining industry’s premier event—the Silk Road Mining Cooperation Forum and the China Xinjiang International Mining and Equipment Expo—came to a successful close in Urumqi, Xinjiang. As one of the world’s top three mining exhibitions and a core platform for national mining technology innovation, this year’s event focused on “New Manufacturing, New Services, New Business Models,” providing a panoramic view of innovation trends across the entire mining industry chain.
Huafeng Wear-Resistant Materials, an important player in the casting grinding ball field, was deeply involved in the event. The booth displayed a variety of chromium alloy products, austenitic cast products, impact test samples, and more. Through physical samples, working condition data charts, and grinding solution demonstrations, the company visually presented efficiency enhancement paths to customers in the mining, beneficiation, and cement industries.
01. Chromium Alloy Series Products
Core hardness ≥62 HRC, with a dense and uniform microstructure. Using special alloy formulas and precise heat treatment processes, the material structure is ensured to be uniform and stable. This is the preferred solution for fine grinding of medium to high-hardness ores. It is particularly suitable for fine grinding operations in common ores such as iron ore and copper ore.
02. Austenitic Cast Series Products
Layered hardening, initially good toughness, and later strong wear resistance, perfectly balancing performance requirements. Initial hardness is 50-58 HRC and reaches over 60 HRC after use.
The fracture rate is <0.5%, leading the industry. It performs exceptionally well in large semi-autogenous mills and ball mills.
This is a specialized solution for high-stress conditions, designed for extreme working environments to reduce maintenance costs.
Through in-depth exchanges with global exhibition customers, Huafeng Wear-Resistant Materials precisely grasped the three major development trends in the wear-resistant materials industry:
First, with the increasing proportion of deep-well mining, ore hardness has significantly increased, driving growing demand for high-impact-resistant wear products. Second, the cement industry’s increasingly stringent energy-saving and consumption-reduction requirements highlight the value of efficient grinding solutions. Third, the international market’s recognition of “Made in China” wear products continues to rise.
These valuable market insights provide important guidance for our R&D direction. In the future, Huafeng will take a global perspective, benchmark against international top standards, and drive innovation and customer demand to provide more efficient and reliable grinding media solutions for global mining, cement, and other industry customers!
