Machine tool industry further establishes an important position in the national economy

With the "National Medium and Long-Term Plan for Scientific and Technological Development", CNC machine tools have been listed as one of the 16 major projects, further establishing the importance of the machine tool industry in the national economy. The machine tool industry has focused on the key development areas of the country and strengthened product innovation and development of special planes. It has achieved effective breakthroughs in precision manufacturing and limit manufacturing, and upgraded the technical grades of key products such as large and heavy-duty CNC machine tools and 5-axis linkage machine tools. And level.

At present, domestic high-end CNC machine tools have begun to enter the country's key development areas and the field of national defense and military construction. In the development of the national economy, high-end CNC machine tools that are urgently needed are excessively dependent on imports, and are gradually improving. In 2009, the market share of domestic metalworking machine tool output value continued to increase, reaching 70.1%; the domestic market share of CNC machine tool production reached 62%.

Experts pointed out that the current technological level of the world's machine tools is mainly driven by the production of CNC machine sheet machines. The development in the next 20 years will continue to be the case. On the basis of further improving accuracy, efficiency, automation, intelligence, and networking, the company has gradually transitioned to processing units and cutting-edge flexible manufacturing systems. While the Chinese machine tool industry has experienced the development process of learning, imitating, and independent innovation, there is still a considerable gap between accuracy, efficiency, automation, intelligence, environmental protection, and foreign advanced level.

With the rapid development of science and technology in the world today, processing technology has entered the era of sub-micron and nano-scale ultra-finishing, and networked manufacturing technology is in the ascendant. Green manufacturing is highly valued. Digital manufacturing using CNC machine tools as a technology platform has been promoted to a new stage of intelligent manufacturing. Integration and technology compounding have become one of the most active trends in the development of CNC machine tools.

Although China's machine tool industry has enjoyed a strong momentum of development over the years, it has always followed the old road in terms of technology and strategy, and has not fundamentally sought to change its development thinking. The world machine tool industry has a highly international character, which is reflected in the internationalization of the market, the internationalization of technology, and the internationalization of investment. Based on this, choosing the mode and path suitable for the development trend of the contemporary machine tool industry is a must for the future domestic machine tool industry to be stronger, and this choice should not only stay in the form. At the same time, cross-border mergers and acquisitions are also an important way to implement industry industrial restructuring. In short, with a more open international perspective, flexible operation modes, and utilizing all domestic and foreign industrial resources that can be utilized, a win-win situation for cooperation can be achieved. The way to achieve the goal of innovation and upgrade of the machine tool industry should be actively promoted and implemented.

At present, the state attaches great importance to the development of the machine tool industry. The National Science and Technology Major Project of “High-end CNC Machine Tools and Basic Manufacturing Equipment” was put into operation in 2009. This has undoubtedly played a very positive role in promoting the technological innovation of enterprises in the industry. However, in the specific implementation process, there is also the need for further improvement so that relatively limited resources can play a greater role. The first is to select the project participants to participate in the process, not only concerned about the company's production value, production capacity, volume, not based on the nature of the company to choose the basis, but should be comprehensive consideration of the company's product market position, influence and advancement, The uniqueness and originality of technology, the future market development space and other factors, in order to maximize the role of the input resources. Big is not necessarily strong, and even vice versa. This point is very obvious in the current domestic machine tool industry. The second reason is that in view of the complexity of machine tools, the desire to “completely achieve results in one battle” is unrealistic. Then, focusing on selective resources to provide effective breakthroughs in some of the industry's key technical problems may have the effect of “doing more with less” and driving other technical problems. The third is the formation and establishment of a long-term mechanism, the implementation of dynamic management, evaluation of the implementation effect, with special funds to activate the enterprise's enthusiasm for technology research and development, with limited funds to stimulate more industrial resources to invest in technological innovation activities Instead of making it "Don Juan meat." The fourth is to establish a safeguard mechanism. The technological achievements made with public resources should be shared across the industry, rather than being monopolized by special status.

We believe that the Chinese machine tool industry will further improve its product quality and service awareness by further deepening reforms, actively adjusting industry and product mix, transforming economic growth patterns, enhancing independent innovation capabilities, accelerating R&D and market development of middle-to-high-end CNC machine tools and functional components. In order to improve the overall competitiveness of the industry, the industry will be able to achieve sustainable development in a good and fast manner, and accomplish the goal of becoming stronger and stronger.
