China's machine tools continue to develop rapidly for 7 years or will usher in a downward trend

In the course of rapid economic growth for several consecutive years, we can see the changes in policies in this process. The initial policy advocated rapid and rapid development, while paying attention to the quality of operations while maintaining rapid development. The next step was to promote good and fast development of policies and put “good” ahead of “fast”. Finally, the policy was adjusted to advocate steady and healthy. development of.

The Chinese machine tool industry has maintained a high growth rate for seven consecutive years. Its manufacturing volume has been raised from the ninth in the world rankings to the third highest in the world. After Italy ranked second, its output value has increased by more than six times. In this process, the Chinese economy has also developed rapidly for six or seven years, and continuous high growth like the machine tool industry is not normal. At this time, the market has changed, or the market has started to decline. It is an inevitable trend. .

In the process of policy adjustment, the quality of economic operations has been constantly emphasized. For example, good and fast development, the first emphasis is good, this "good" is reflected in the machine tool industry is the continuous improvement of the quality of machine tools. For example, the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway to be launched now requires speeds of 350 to 400 kilometers per hour, compared with 120 to 150 kilometers a few years ago. According to experts, each sleeper on the Beijing-Shanghai Railway has to be machined with a grinder, and the grade of manufacturing equipment for the railway can also be imagined.

By the same token, current aircraft, ships, automobiles, and power generation equipment are all different from the past. This development trend means that, on the one hand, the demand for low-grade products in the market is saturated, and on the other hand, the demand for high-grade products develops. This is an inevitable trend of development. Even if there is no financial turmoil, this will happen. Coupled with the strong contingency of the financial turmoil, the situation facing the machine tools industry is becoming more severe at the moment, but this also strengthens the determination of industry companies to change their product structure. For example, Hangzhou machine tools, Shenyang machine tools and other companies have expressed their determination to get rid of these small, low-end products and have been hesitant.

From January to September 2008, the Chinese machine tool industry continued the rapid development of the previous seven years, and the output value and sales amounted to approximately 250 billion yuan respectively. Compared with the same period of last year, sales increased by 32%, and the total output value increased. 31%, profit increased by 30%. Judging from these three sets of data, the period from January to September performed well and maintained a steady and rapid development. However, there are also hidden crises under the high-speed development.
