CNC machine tool industry to high-end development

In recent years, thanks to the national environment for revitalizing the equipment manufacturing industry and strong market demand, the domestic machine tool industry has witnessed rapid technological development and high investment enthusiasm. The "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" has adopted the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry as the main content to promote the optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure, and CNC machine tools have become one of the key points in the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry. In the future, China will focus on the development of high-speed, precision, composite CNC cutting machine tools; heavy CNC cutting machine tools; CNC special processing machine tools; large-scale CNC forming stamping equipment and related parts of CNC machine tools.

According to the report, in 2011, China produced 1,094,400 machine tools, achieving a total industrial output value of 660.65 billion yuan, an increase of 32.1% year-on-year, of which 271,200 CNC machine tools, an increase of 15.26%, CNC machine tools have become the mainstream of machine tool consumption. In particular, high-end CNC machine tools belong to the high-end equipment manufacturing industry. They have the characteristics of high-tech content and high-tech added value, and are important focal points for the development of strategic emerging industries. In the future, the market for high-end CNC machine tools is huge.

At present, the user's demand for high-end products of CNC machine tools is relatively strong, and it is particularly manifested in two aspects: First, the number is rapidly increasing. The proportion of CNC machine tools in the total consumption of machine tools has risen to more than 60%, and will continue to rise rapidly during the “12th Five-Year Plan” period.

On the other hand, the level of demand continues to increase. During the 12th Five-Year Plan period, with the development of high-level new products in the key fields of revitalizing equipment manufacturing industry, every field has put forward higher requirements for CNC machine tools, such as the development of large-scale thermal power generation and nuclear power units, and the manufacture of large-scale chemical equipment. The development of large-scale marine transport ships, the development of large-scale sheet hot and cold continuous rolling mills, the development of high-speed trains, new types of subways, and rail transit vehicles all require a large number of high-speed, precision, high-efficiency, and special-purpose CNC machine tools to manufacture and manufacture new-generation weapons and ships. The development of aircrafts, satellites, and missiles also raises higher demands on CNC machine tools.

China has surpassed Germany to become the world’s largest machine tool market, and CNC machine tools have become the mainstream of machine tool consumption. The future of CNC machine tools is huge. It is roughly estimated that by 2015, the total assets of China's CNC machine tools industry will be expected to exceed 240 billion yuan, sales revenue will exceed 180 billion yuan, and total profit will reach 12 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of over 10% year-on-year.

At the same time, the technology of CNC machine tools in China will also be greatly improved. By the end of the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan”, high-end CNC machine tools and basic manufacturing equipment will achieve a significant increase in the ability to independently innovate and master a large number of core technologies with independent intellectual property rights. The technical level has entered the international advanced ranks. At that time, the main engine, numerical control system and functional components will be "mid-range and high-grade industrialization. China will develop a number of key equipment with advanced international standards, with high-volume, precision vertical and horizontal processing. The market share of centers, CNC lathes and other products will increase significantly.
