2015 China's CNC machine tool industry booming production and demand
Under the sluggish situation of the overall performance of the CNC machine tool industry, the growth rate of the export of machine tool products has been significantly accelerated. According to the data, in the first 11 months of 2014, the export of CNC machine tools and tools was US$10.5 billion, an increase of 22.5%. Among them, the metal processing machine tool was 3.06 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 18.6%.
In recent years, China's machine tool manufacturing industry has benefited greatly from the national environment to revitalize the equipment manufacturing industry. Among them, the CNC machine tool industry leading today's machine tool manufacturing technology is even better.
It was learned from the China Machine Tool Industry Association that since the 15th Five-Year Plan period, China's machine tool consumption has been a record, and that the total consumption of machine tools in the mainland market (the import value of domestic product sales-export value) and the import value have ranked first in the world for five years in a row. The world's largest consumer of machine tools.
The level, variety, and production capacity of CNC machine tools reflect the country's overall technical and economic strength. As the strategic equipment of the national defense industry, CNC machine tools are the most important means of manufacturing all kinds of weapons and equipment and are an important guarantee for the modernization of national defense and military equipment. However, revitalizing the CNC machine tool industry has a certain degree of difficulty for the machine tool industry. According to experts, the digital manufacturing technology required for the development of CNC machine tools is the core of advanced manufacturing and is the key to achieving independent innovation. Therefore, for the whole industry, rejuvenating the CNC machine tool industry is both a strategic opportunity and a severe challenge.
During the 12th Five-Year Plan period, the CNC machine tool industry will usher in a favorable opportunity for structural adjustment. In the next few years or even longer periods, the downstream industries in the fields of aviation, aerospace, shipbuilding, electricity, energy, automobiles, rail transportation, and high-speed railways will undergo large-scale and in-depth structural adjustments. This is for the machine tool industry. While bringing great opportunities, new and higher requirements will also be put forward for machine tool products in accuracy, efficiency, reliability, energy saving and environmental protection. For example, the aviation sector will demand more high-speed, precision, compound, and multi-axis linkage of high-level CNC machine tool products; the electric power industry will put forward new requirements for high-rigidity, high-torque, multi-coordinate heavy-duty machine tools, and numerical control tools and gauges. The industrial upgrading of the shipbuilding industry requires high-quality heavy-duty, super-heavy-duty machine tools for special processing equipment; the automotive industry will require a large number of production lines, flexible lines and special machine tools.
Luo Baihui suggested that China's CNC machine tool companies should regard accelerating structural readjustment as a long-term strategic priority in the future, further use scientific and technological innovation as the starting point, accelerate the pace of structural adjustment, and strive to achieve a shift from focusing on scale and speed to focusing on quality and efficiency. Eliminating low-grade resources and high-energy-consuming products, and fully enhancing the added value of the products, thus enhancing the overall level of development of enterprises in the CNC machine tool industry.
