Machine tools: high-end differentiated market momentum is obvious

Abstract From the recent major industry events of the 2018 industry announced by the China Machine Tool Industry Association, 2018 is a special year for the machine tool industry.

From the recent major industry events of the 2018 industry announced by the China Machine Tool Industry Association, 2018 is a special year for the machine tool industry. In the first half of 2018, the company continued its good development momentum in 2017. In the third quarter of 2018, orders began to decline, and the decline in the fourth quarter was even more serious. Negative news such as Sino-US trade frictions, the first annual decline in automobile production and sales in 28 years, not only brought more uncertainty to the market, but also affected the confidence of the market, and directly affected the operation of machine tool enterprises.

Based on the analysis and judgment of favorable factors and unfavorable factors in 2019, the Machine Tool Association predicts that there will be downward pressure on the development of the machine tool industry in 2019. Overall, the medium and low-speed development trend will be maintained. The main business income will be flat or slightly fluctuating in 2018. Industry sectors will behave differently.

Market growth slowed in the second half of 2018

After a rapid development in the past 10 years, China's machine tool industry has seen a sharp turning point in 2011. From the perspective of the industry as a whole, the downward trend continued until 2016. 2017 showed a recovery growth. However, the growth trend in the second half of 2018 has narrowed significantly.

Comments: An industry insider believes that there are five reasons for the rapid decline of the industry. First, the development of new energy vehicles has a huge impact on the traditional automobile powertrain; second, the investment in the direction of new energy vehicles is not clear. Third, the Sino-US trade friction has increased the uncertainty of the investment territory; the fourth is the uncertainty of the investment caused by the transformation of the automobile emission standard from the national five to the national six; the fifth is the lack of confidence in the automobile consumption market. In general, under the impact of reduced market demand, some enterprises have caused debt crisis due to blind expansion or relocation and relocation, and there are operational dilemmas, and some even bankruptcy reorganization; otherwise, some industry enterprises seize market segments. Development opportunities are growing rapidly. Whether it is forward or backward is extremely important for the accurate judgment of the market.

Some foreign-funded enterprises expand investment in China

In 2018, the Chinese machine tool market is still attractive to foreign-invested companies: India's McLaren Metz Machine Tool Company opened a “Technology Experience Center” in the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone; Swiss TORNOS Group opened a Shanghai Customer Service Center in the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone; ABB announced that it will invest in a new robot factory in Shanghai, China; the Japan FANUC Robotic Chongqing base project will start construction in Liangjiang New District; the German Emak Taicang plant will be relocated to the new plant, nearly double the previous area; Siemens CNC SNC will Invest in the construction of a digital factory in Nanjing. Not all.

Comments: On the one hand, in the next ten years, the sales volume of machine tools of the world's 10 largest companies will account for 30% of the world machine tool market; the sales volume of the 20 largest machine tool companies will reach 45% of the world machine tool market. Well-known foreign brands will naturally not miss this huge market in China. For the Chinese market in 2019, some foreign companies expressed cautious optimism, and some foreign companies with greater relevance in the automotive sector have lowered their business targets in 2019.

Machine tool industry standard construction work continues to advance

In 2018, the construction of the Group Standards of China Machine Tool Industry Association continued to deepen, and the first phase of the “Product Quality Commitment Commitment” was carried out. The “Standards for Product Quality Evaluation” was established. The 11 group standard plan projects have been approved. Review and enter the approval stage. In terms of international standards, in February 2018, the international standard proposal for "Industrial Automation Systems and Integration · Machine Tool CNC System · General Requirements" submitted by China was approved and officially approved, marking that China is expected to achieve zero in the field of machine tool CNC system international standards. "The breakthrough; in October 2018, the "S-shaped test piece" for the accuracy inspection of five-axis CNC machine tools developed by China entered the final draft stage of the international standard (FDIS stage), marking the "S-shaped test piece" Enter the international standard sequence.

Comments: Continuously improving the brand value of the region and enhancing the right to speak in the industry is the goal that the industry has been striving for, as well as at home and abroad. In terms of participation in international standards, the “S-shaped test piece” proposed by China Aviation Industry for the accuracy detection of five-axis linkage CNC machine tools entered the final draft of the International Standard (FDIS). This marks the first time that China has developed a universally recognized universal standard in the field of international metal cutting machine tool testing.

Many projects in the machine tool industry participated in the Machinery Industry Science and Technology Award and won the award

In the 2018 China Machinery Industry Science and Technology Awards, the machine tool industry announced a total of 41 projects, and finally decided to win 20 projects, the award rate was 49%. Among the winning projects, there are 1 special prize, 4 first prizes, 5 second prizes and 10 third prizes. The project “Key Technology Research and Key Field Application of Precision Horizontal Machining Center” won the special prize. The project participants include: Beijing Machine Tool Research Institute Co., Ltd., Beijing Gongyan Precision Machinery Co., Ltd., Sichuan Pushkin Ningjiang Machine Tool Co., Ltd., Shen Machine Group Kunming Machine Tool Co., Ltd., Tianjin University, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Beijing Xinghang Electromechanical Equipment Co., Ltd.

Comments: Knowing with technology, it is always the magic weapon for the industry to win. In recent years, the demand for high-end machine tools in the domestic market has been in a steady and steady growth trend. I believe that those companies that continue to improve their technology and quality and move toward the medium and high-end direction will have good development in the future.

CCMT2018 international level to achieve new heights

As a well-known brand of machine tool exhibition in China, the China CNC Machine Tool Exhibition (CCMT), sponsored by China Machine Tool Industry Association, celebrated its 10th birthday in April 2018.

Comments: The characteristics of machine tool exhibits are in fact the direction of machine tool technology development. Digital manufacturing is an inevitable choice for the global manufacturing industry to face the future. The development of machine tools to digital is the general trend. Integrated manufacturing is one of the ways to obtain high-efficiency, high-performance products. In the process of “high-tech”, integrated technology is bound to be widely used. Intelligent machine tools and special machine tools are also increasingly needed by manufacturing companies. It can be seen that digital, integration and specialization have become the future development trend of the machine tool industry.
