Southwest University of Science and Technology Students Visit AIMBON to Explore the Secrets of Air Purifier Manufacturing

Recently, students from the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Southwest University of Science and Technology walked into the AIMBON Air Health Technology Park to visit the entire manufacturing process of air purifiers on – site, and closely experienced the technological charm of “making healthy breathing within reach”. This practical activity has built a bridge for the integration of theory and industry for college students, and also demonstrated AIMBON’s open – sharing and popular science responsibility after 28 years of deep cultivation in the air health field.

In the AIMBON R & D and Design Center, the students were first attracted by more than 280 patent achievements on display. The technical expert explained in detail the R & D process of the “Water – Gated · Air Health Technology” – from the breakthrough of basic principles to the iterative application of 7 product series. Behind each patent is AIMBON’s ultimate pursuit of “healthy breathing”. Aiming at the characteristics of the materials science major, the engineer focused on sharing how to balance purification efficiency and energy consumption through material selection (such as high – efficiency HEPA filter materials, antibacterial composite materials) in the design of filter elements and air duct optimization, allowing students to directly understand the practical path of “materials science empowering industrial innovation”.

Entering the mold manufacturing workshop, the precision machining equipment was operating in an orderly manner, and the molds for the core components of the air purifier were undergoing CNC finishing. The technical personnel introduced that AIMBON’s mold manufacturing strictly follows the “micron – level precision” standard. From mold design to molding, 12 quality inspection procedures are required. The students observed the EDM (electrical discharge machining) of molds and surface treatment processes at close range, and had a lively discussion on professional issues such as “how to control product consistency through mold precision” and “the impact of material selection on mold life”, deeply linking the classroom knowledge of material mechanics and forming processes with actual production.

In the assembly workshop, the intelligent production line was operating efficiently: AGV trolleys accurately distributed materials, automatic screw – locking equipment ensured assembly consistency, and the online detection system monitored product performance in real – time. The commentator introduced that AIMBON’s assembly adopts “digital twin” management, and the whole process of each air purifier from parts to finished products is traceable. The students followed the rhythm of the production line to understand the assembly logic from spare parts to the whole machine, and had a concrete understanding of “lean manufacturing” and “intelligent manufacturing collaboration”. Many students exclaimed: “It turns out that the birth of an air purifier is such a complex system project behind it!”

In the national – level CNAS – certified testing laboratory, the AIMBON engineer demonstrated the extreme challenges of the air purifier: simulating the operation stability in an extremely cold environment of – 20 °C, the purification efficiency test in a 100,000 – level dust cabin, and the verification of the removal rate of VOCs pollutants… In the laboratory, professional equipment recorded various performance data, and indicators such as “3000 – hour continuous operation without failure” and “PM2.5 single – time purification efficiency ≥ 99.97%” made the students deeply realize the strict standards behind “healthy technology products”. For the materials major, the engineer specially explained the filter material life test, the durability verification of antibacterial materials and other links, corresponding to the students’ professional research directions.

After the visit, the AIMBON technical team held a discussion and exchange with the teachers and students of Southwest University of Science and Technology. The R & D director of AIMBON, combining 28 years of industry experience, shared the “development trend of air health technology” – from traditional filtration to intelligent purification, from a single function to full – scene coverage, materials science has always been the core driving force. He mentioned that AIMBON is cooperating with university laboratories to explore the application of new nano – catalytic materials in formaldehyde decomposition, and looks forward to working with more young talents to innovate.

The leading teacher of the School of Materials Science of Southwest University of Science and Technology said: “This visit has allowed students to jump out of book knowledge and directly feel the application value of materials science in the people’s livelihood industry. AIMBON’s open practice platform has provided a valuable industrial perspective for the training of college talents. It is expected to deepen the industry – university – research cooperation in the future and accelerate the implementation and transformation of more scientific research achievements.”

The students also actively asked questions, from “how to balance filter material efficiency and air resistance” to “the challenges of the civilian use of antibacterial materials”, and the on – site interaction was enthusiastic. One student exclaimed: “I used to think that materials science was very ‘high – end and aloof’. Today, I found that it is in every breath around us. AIMBON’s practice has made me see the application value of professional knowledge, and has strengthened my determination to deeply engage in materials research.”

As an “invisible champion” in the air health field, AIMBON has been deeply cultivating for 28 years and has always been on a mission of “letting everyone enjoy truly healthy breathing”. This time, opening the manufacturing base to receive college students’ visits is another practice of AIMBON’s “industrial popular science” – by uncovering the mysterious veil of air purifier manufacturing, more young talents can understand the underlying logic of the health technology industry, and stimulate the exploration enthusiasm of the younger generation for materials science and air health technology.

In the future, AIMBON will continue to open industrial resources, deepen industry – university – research cooperation with universities and scientific research institutions. On the one hand, it will cultivate reserve talents for the industry, and on the other hand, it will accelerate the implementation and application of cutting – edge materials and innovative technologies, contribute to the “Healthy China” strategy, and let the concept of “technology for good, health for the people” be transmitted and extended in each “industry – university interaction”.

This visit and exchange by the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Southwest University of Science and Technology is not only a simple “enterprise visit”, but also a cross – boundary dialogue between “materials science and health industry”. When the inquiring eyes of youth meet the deep – rooted industrial strength, what is sparked is the infinite possibility of the “future of health technology” – and this is exactly the original intention of AIMBON to adhere to openness and embrace innovation.
