Vaping is a promising emerging industry, and with continuous innovation and transformation in technology, this industry is rapidly advancing. Currently, the technical barriers in the vaping industry mainly focus on the airflow system, ceramic technology, atomization structure (no oil absorption, no leakage), heating technology, ID design, and component solutions. Many related enterprises in the entire industry chain have been working hard on research and development, seeking breakthroughs.
In these technologies, atomization technology is the core element of atomizers, directly affecting the user experience and even determining the success or failure of a product. The atomizer is to vaping what Intel chips are to computers.
Since the birth of e-cigarettes in 2004, the core atomization technology of atomizers has been continuously evolving and iterating, experiencing six generations of technological changes, including cotton wicking, oil guide ropes, cotton wicking, ceramic cores, metal mesh, and ultra-thin stainless steel blades.
Ceramic cores are currently the most widely used atomization technology in the small vaping product sector, with the biggest advantages being “pure taste”, “clear layers”, “high restoration”, “durability”, and “not easy to burn”, providing consumers with an unprecedented vaping experience.
Today, I will share with you two major domestic vaping technology brands that specialize in ceramic atomization technology, and the impressive strength behind them.
1. FEELM
FEELM is a vaporization technology brand based on ceramic-coated atomization cores, launched by Shenzhen Microwell Technology Co., Ltd. in 2016.
FEELM's metal coating technology uses ceramic as a carrier, employing high-temperature forged ceramics that form numerous honeycomb-shaped capillaries internally, which are more conducive to the uniform penetration and heating of e-liquid, while retaining and enhancing the original characteristics of ceramic cores such as “pure taste” and “rich layers”.
FEELM's core technology completely breaks free from the constraints of traditional heating wires, covering the bottom of the ceramic with a metal film through a special process, distributed in an “S” shape, greatly enhancing overall heating performance.
As a vaporization technology brand, FEELM is a paradise for vaporization technology enthusiasts, gathering over 270 vaporization research experts globally and establishing multiple basic research institutes, applying for over 800 vaporization-related patents worldwide, and winning the only global tobacco industry “Golden Leaf Award” for a Chinese technology brand in 2018.
2. SILMO
SILMO is a micro-porous ceramic electronic vaporization technology brand launched by Shenzhen ZL Energy Electronics Co., Ltd. on March 22, 2019.
SILMO is an electronic vaporization technology with independent intellectual property rights, using micro-porous ceramics as the substrate, employing thick film printing technology for metal slurry, and creating a new heating element through ceramic surface coating, innovatively solving the long-standing technical bottleneck of heating elements in the industry.
SILMO was first born in 2017 at the ZL Energy Basic Science Research Institute, originating from our initial concept heating element Silmo 1.0. That year, ZL Energy first attempted to create a new heating element using thick film printing technology on a ceramic substrate to address the weak vapor and thin flavor issues of low-power vaporization devices. After two years of exploration and two generations of updates, the third-generation heating element Silmo 3.0 under the SILMO brand has matured, with its technical level far surpassing the entire industry. With the official market launch of Silmo 3.0 in March 2019, the veil of SILMO is gradually being unveiled.
SILMO is committed to improving the user experience of inhalation vaporization devices and contributing to the development of the electronic vaporization industry. “More than just pure”, as its slogan conveys, SILMO is not just a vaporization technology but represents a mission—using the power of technology to lead the healthy and sustainable development of the industry. SILMO makes vaporization purer, healthier, safer, and more enduring—“More Than Pure”.
