Intelligent manufacturing is the main upgrading direction for China’s manufacturing industry and high-end new materials are core for high-end equipment and major engineering projects; therefore, promoting the integration of intelligent manufacturing and high-end new material manufacturing is crucial for enhancing the manufacturing capacity of high-end new materials and satisfying the demand of major equipment for high-end new materials. This study first analyzes the necessity of promoting intelligent manufacturing for high-end new materials. With increasing demands for high-performance manufacturing of high-end new materials, integration and lightweight manufacturing of complex components, and efficient and low-cost green manufacturing of high-end components, serious problems and huge challenges have been encountered by the traditional trial-and-error method for materials manufacturing. Meanwhile, grand opportunities are provided by a data-driven research and development mode for intelligent materials manufacturing. Taking materials forming and processing as an example, the common key technologies of intelligent materials manufacturing that need to be developed are systematically clarified, and countermeasures and suggestions to accelerate the development of intelligent manufacturing for high-end new materials, including key technology research and development, innovation system establishment, interdisciplinary talent cultivation, and achievement transfer, are also proposed, in order to support the upgrading and leapfrog development of China’s materials industry.
