As a basic and strategic equipment and industry, the development of machine tool industry, known as the industrial mother machine, has always been the focus of attention in the industry. Recently held in Tianjin 7th World Intelligence Congress, experts, entrepreneurs generally said that the machine tool industry chain development trend is becoming more prominent, the future will face the process, technology, market and other opportunities and challenges.
The trend of chain development is becoming more prominent
The level of machine tool manufacturing industry directly determines the overall level of equipment and industrialization of a country, especially high-end CNC machine tools is an important guarantee for the innovation and development of major equipment in various industries, is the engine for the upgrading and development of manufacturing industry, and has been concerned by the industry.
Wang Xu, vice president of the China Machine Tool Industry Association, said that the obvious changes in the machine tool industry in recent years are “industrial groups” and “industrial clusters”. General Technology Group as the representative of the “national” brand group army in the industry integration of active exploration, after several years of integration and capacity, with the whole product line to the needs of key user areas for a comprehensive display; The cluster effect of host and functional components industries in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong and other regions began to appear, accelerating the upgrading of industrial base and the modernization of industrial chain into the stage of capacity release.
Lu Yimin, general manager of GE Technology Group, introduced that after integration, the machine tool industry layout of GE Technology Group covers more than 80% of the product types of metal cutting machine tools in China, forming an industrial chain construction pattern with clear division of labor, integrated innovation and collaborative development. The enterprise drives the development of more than 1200 industrial chain enterprises with the construction of industrial chain, supports the large enterprises in the subdivided fields to become stronger and better, and promotes the supporting small and medium-sized enterprises to become specialized and refined.
In order to accelerate the integrated development of industries, General Technology Group has led more than 60 units of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, such as domestic enterprises, universities and research institutions, to establish a strategic alliance for technological innovation in the CNC machine tool industry, gather resources and strength of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, and improve the industrial chain security ability.
Zhou Ji, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and director of the Strategic Advisory Committee of National Manufacturing Power Construction, said that in the future, China’s machine tool industry will take the industrial chain as the lead, intelligent manufacturing as the main direction, machine tool products and manufacturing capacity at the same time to the forefront of the world’s machine tool industry, from the world’s “low-end” to “medium-high-end” machine tool industry.
