Abstract: Remanufacture, taken as emerging strategic industry, greatly meets national strategy of recycling economy, and has highly valued by government and enterprises. Remanufacture forming technology (RFT) is the cored content of remanufacture engineering, which can rebuild original size of the worn pieces, and at the same time, restore or even upgrade its performance. It states current status of RFT in the world, and comparatively analyzes difference between China and other countries on aspects of RFT and its quality standards. Novel achievements on RFT in China are elaborated in the following three parts: additive RFT, the machining combined RFT, and quality control and evaluation for remanufacture forming. At last, it prospects developing trends of RFT in China, and proposes the advisable strategies of developing RFT.

Key words: Current status, Developing trend, Recycling economy, Remanufacture forming technology
