According to the statistics of the floor lathe manufacturers in the second half of 2016, China's machine tool industry has shown a stable development trend. As of July 2017, the output of cutting machine tools and forming machine tools reached 42.40 and 183,000 units respectively, up 5.2% and 3.4% respectively over the same period of last year. Since 2009, China's machine tool production and sales have accounted for 30% of the world's total, ranking first in the world. Floor lathe manufacturers believe that the high-end CNC machine tool industry lags behind the world's advanced national level, and still faces problems such as large but not strong mainframes, lagging development of high-end CNC systems and key functional components, and insufficient technical service capabilities.
Highlights of downstream demand: automotive, 3C electronics, defense military, woodworking furniture, etc.
The downstream demand for machine tools is mainly in the automotive, traditional machinery, electronics and defense military industries: as of July 2017, the automotive industry completed investment of 716.24 billion yuan, an increase of 8.8% year-on-year, maintaining a relatively high growth rate. In the traditional machinery industry, the investment in general equipment manufacturing, special equipment manufacturing, electrical machinery and equipment manufacturing, and transportation equipment manufacturing increased by 1%, 4%, 9.3%, and 9.1% respectively over the same period of last year. Warming up. The investment in TMT manufacturing was 686.80 billion yuan, an increase of 27.2% over the same period of last year, the highest growth rate in 6 years. In addition, we are concerned about the growing demand for machine tools in the woodworking furniture, jewellery, 3C (mobile phone casing, mobile phone screen) industry.
Technological innovation in the machine tool industry: the stock is updated and upgraded, and the market space is broad; 1 the demand for low-end products is declining, and the demand for medium and high-end products is increasing, and the industrial upgrading is required; 2 the demand for updating and upgrading is large: at present, the numerical control rate of the machine tool industry in the manufacturing industry in the world is reached. More than 60%, China's machine tool industry numerical control rate is still expected to further improve; 3 technological innovation to promote the replacement of CNC machine tools: China is the largest patent output country in the field of CNC machine tools, the patent output is 6586, accounting for the total application volume 60%. With the in-depth advancement of Industry 4.0, CNC machine tool technology has entered a new round of update cycle.
