Machine tool industry bid farewell to rapid progress into strategic transformation

In China's machinery industry, the machine tool industry is in a special position as a "tool mother machine". Most of its demand orders come from various types of enterprises in the machinery industry; at the same time, its level is also of special importance to the upgrading of all industries and industries in the machinery industry. The significance. Therefore, the development of the machine tool industry depends not only on the overall development of the Chinese machinery industry, but also on the healthy development of the entire industry.

Compared with the situation in China's machinery industry, the changes in the machine tool industry and the contradictions faced in the past year were all more pronounced. Data from the China Machinery Industry Federation shows that during the 10 years of the “10th Five-Year Plan” and “Eleventh Five-Year Plan”, the Chinese machine tool industry achieved a sustained ultra-high speed development. Until the first half of 2011, the demand was still very strong. Machine tool companies are in a state of exuberant production and sales; but from the second half of last year, demand growth has slowed down significantly, new orders have fallen sharply, economic conditions have gradually become severe, and profit margins have continued to decline. Despite the rapid growth in the first half of the year, the growth rate of the total output value of China's machine tool industry last year fell from nearly 39% at the beginning of the year to 32.5% at the end of the year, and the profit growth rate has dropped dramatically from 57.5% at the beginning of the year to 29.8% at the end of the year. It can be seen that the situation of the Chinese machine tool industry changed drastically last year.

According to data learned by China Machine Tool Network (Ollenet), in 2011, China's machine tool industry imported 20.7 billion U.S. dollars, while exports accounted for 7.3 billion U.S. dollars, and the import and export deficit was as high as 13.4 billion U.S. dollars. It can be seen that the demand for China's machine tools and tools is objective. It is only that the domestic machine tool companies cannot fully satisfy it; if it can achieve the basic balance between imports and exports, the Chinese machine tool industry could increase another 13.4 billion US dollars last year (equivalent to nearly 100 billion yuan. ) Sales. Last year, the trade deficit between China's machinery industry and the world’s recognized mechanical industrial powers Germany and Japan were as high as 49.2 billion U.S. dollars and 57.8 billion U.S. dollars, respectively; last year, the average export price of CNC machine tools in China was only 33,000 U.S. dollars per unit, while the import unit price was 219,000 U.S. dollars. USD/Taiwan, the export price is only 15% of the import; "All these kinds of things, have clearly told us that China's machinery industry's technological level and the international advanced level there is still a big gap."
