Tungsten is one of the strategic metals and has extremely important uses in many fields such as metallurgical machinery, petroleum chemistry, aerial and space industries, and national defence engineering. China is rich in tungsten resources and has a high capacity of tungsten ore mining and dressing. During the past 10-odd years its supply of tungsten exceeded the demand. By the end of 1998, the tungsten ore mining-dressing capacity of the country stood at about 60,000 tons, the smelting capacity approximately 70,000 tons, and the tungsten metal production capacity exceeded 35,000 tons. In recent years the global demand for metal tungsten has been about 31,000 tons, while China's metal tungsten production in 1998 amounted to about 22,000 tons, making up 71% of the global demand. China's present domestic demand is nearly 8,000 tons, and most of its products (tungsten concentrates, intermediate products and articles) are exported. In the recent 10 years and more, excess exports have caused a decline in the international tungsten price, unfavorable to the development of the tungsten industry in China.Henan Hongxing Mining Machinery Co., Ltd is the professional manufacturer of complete sets of mining machinery, for example,mobile crusher,sand washing plant Welcome all of you to visit our official website.iron ore concentrator:http://www.hxjqchina.com/n28.html

Henan Hongxing Mining Machinery Co., Ltd is a joint-stock mining machinery manufacturing enterprise integrated in scientific research, production and marketing. It is located at the High & New Technology Industries Development Zone of Zhengzhou,China with an area of 50 thousand m2 which includes 15,000 m2 of standard heavy duty industrial workshop. Equipments are more than 160 pieces, including large and medium sized metal processing, riveting and installing equipments. There are more than 660 workers including 80 administrators with secondary and senior occupational titles and engineering technicians. In order to promote the competitive strength, the advanced technologies have been introduced from America, Germany, Japan and Australia, which established the international advanced production line, first-class modern testing base as well as research centers of sand maker, mill and mine-selecting equipment. Scientific management, advanced processing technology and innovative manufacturing theory make the company become the mining machinery manufacturing and exporting base in China.

During the recent 10 years, the production of intermediate tungsten products has developed rapidly and the productive capacity grown by a big margin. The 1989 statistics show that the productive capacity of APT for the analyzed 48 enterprises was 31,680 tons and their production also increased year by year. If the country's various intermediate products were all converted to APT, the production of APT of the whole country would have increased annually by 9.28% in the period 1987~1991. At the beginning of the 1990s, the country's total production of APT reached 22,085.87 tons.
