Machine tool industry into a more steady and rational development period

In 2007, China's machine tool industry will enter a period of steady and more rational development.
Over the past year, the economic situation at home and abroad are busy, the machine tool industry in our country has made rapid development, although the total increase fell slightly, but growth momentum remains strong, is expected to 2006 the national machine tool industry total output value reached 160 billion, an increase of about 22%. A variety of machine tool products exports increased significantly, especially the numerical control machine tools increased by nearly 30%. Imports also showed a rapid growth in 2006, imports of metal processing machine tool about $7 billion, a new record high. Machine tool industry vigorous development situation that our national economy in the national "Eleventh Five Year" planning to start the year investment, consumption, import and export trade power of machine tool industry a powerful pull, but also shows the substantive progress achieved in machine tool industry in the innovation, development, adjustment and reorganization.
First, China's machine tool industry is currently showing significant features
1. The first army, namely so-called paces-etter companies and many other companies in terms of technology, scale, brand distance is pulled apparently big, forming a a has the strength and the world famous enterprises competition real pillar enterprises. The size of these enterprises in different varieties to establish a leading position in the industry, with the world's advanced level of the gap further reduced. In metal cutting industry such as Shenyang, Dalian machine tool machine tool and, its total sales reached 70 billion yuan, two years will enter the tens of billions of enterprises, these enterprises will in the development of trans regional or even transnational development, through market means to expand enterprise scale, improve the sources of technology and innovation ability; in the forging industry, such as economic, Jinfangyuan, Yawei such enterprises, the technological level of the product has and the international advanced level of similar or equivalent; in the cutting tool industry, Kazakhstan, Chengliang, Hanzhong tools have products reach the world advanced level, market share rate has improved significantly.
2 machine tool products market development, attracted the attention of the parties concerned. Machine tool industry but not a basic and strategic industry, also can become a better return on investment type and brand development of the industry, domestic or foreign, including some in other areas has been the effectiveness of enterprise poured in machine tool industry. Currently only in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong provinces there are thousands of start-ups in machine or functional components production and operation, after investigation. The majority of these enterprises is small. Sales in millions to tens of millions of dollars. Products are generally common, low level of sales to meet demand within the geographical scope mainly. There are also part of private and foreign-funded enterprises began to mergers and acquisitions in the central and western regions have higher level and brand visibility, large machine tool enterprises, such as Wanxiang Group, Xinrui group, Haitian Group has larger movements. At the beginning of twenty-first Century the new machine tool industry, restructuring, restructuring and development momentum in the past two years into the peak.
The pace of development. Some high, fine, sharp and high technology products accelerated development cycle and the formation of industrialization cycle is gradually shortened, the development cycle of new product only 2 to 3 months, sophisticated and major equipment only a year to a year and a half, developed a new product "line" has commodity level, design, technology, equipment to reconcile the corresponding software has a production capacity, reliability in design and technology have been fully taken into account and s-et a goal. Therefore, in recent years, China's machine tool industry's new products have been developed according to market needs, according to user requirements s-et, according to the reliable application of production. Now the development of a new high level of CNC machine tools, China's machine tool industry is not in terms of the insurmountable gap.
4 China's machine tool industry's social supporting capacity has been greatly improved, a variety of basic functional components have been more perfect system. F-rom Shandong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong and other regions reflect the situation in the four province machine tool accessories, functional parts production enterprises has reached 3000 to 4000, the production of varieties, specifications have thousands of, f-rom the spindle servo motor to a variety of door, lubrication, knife, knife s-et available. The improvement of social support and promote the development of the whole industry, competition is fierce to a certain degree promotes the improve product quality and level, promote the research and development of new products, but generally speaking, the labor-intensive products supporting more and less duplication, overlap, technology intensive functional components and slow development of, some important functional components, such as linear motor, knife, high-speed spindle remains to be strengthen or improve the level of technology.
5. The Chinese machine tool industry enterprises are mainly the original large state-owned backbone enterprise development Co., Ltd., technically still dominant, market is still the mainstream, but some private enterprises have been in the middle and low-grade products occupies certain proportion, foreign-funded enterprises is still auxiliary force. Of course, in a number of technology intensive high-tech supporting functional components, joint venture or foreign enterprises occupy a control position, the overall development of China's machine tool industry has a certain constraints.
Two, 2007 China's machine tool market demand analysis
1 world economic situation will be improved, the global production and demand for equipment will be increased. According to the analysis of the United States, Japan and the European Union have three major economies of the recent economic reports, American economy will f-rom 2006 rose turn for the trend of rapid growth, growth of 3% ~ 5%, and Japan is through the period of weakness, into the recovery
