Market demand for metal products in the machine tool industry increases

From the perspective of industry development, the domestic cutting machine tool industry started earlier. Large-scale enterprises such as Shenyang Machine Tool and Dalian Machine Tool Co., Ltd. have emerged, and have entered the world's top 10 machine tool production value. Compared with the cutting machine tool, the forming machine tool started late, the scale of the industry scale and the income of the key companies are far less than the cutting machine tool industry, and the sales value is about one third of the cutting machine tool.

During the “10th Five-Year Plan” period, the compound growth rates of cutting machine tools and forming machine tools were 26.7% and 19.6%, respectively. The corresponding data during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period was 21.72% and 30.32%, respectively, and the growth of forming machine tools had exceeded that of cutting machine tools.

China has been ranked first in the world in machine tool consumption for eight consecutive years since 2002. China, as a major machine tool consumer country, is also a major machine tool producer. Due to the impact of the international financial crisis, the production of machine tools in Japan and Germany has fallen sharply, making China the world's largest machine tool producer for the first time in 2009. Metal forming machine tools are an important part of the machine tool industry. Light industry, home appliances, automobiles, transportation, construction, petrochemicals, aerospace and other industries require a large number of metal forming machine tools every year. Therefore, metal forming machine tools have also shown rapid growth in recent years. . The scale of output value of China's metal forming machine tools has increased from 6.13 billion yuan in 2001 to 365.3 billion yuan in 2010, with a compound growth rate of 19.54%.

Although China has ranked as the world’s largest machine tool producer in 2009, the gap with developed countries remains significant. Metal forming machines, as an important class of machine tools, also have large but not strong features. China's metal forming machine tool industry is generally small. At present, there are about 460 enterprises with sales revenues of over 5 million yuan in the forging machinery industry in China, of which the vast majority are small and medium-sized enterprises, and the core equipment and production facilities (factory, lifting, assembly conditions) for large-heavy and precision machining are insufficient. The production capacity is very limited, and it is impossible to produce large tonnage, high speed, wide tabletop, and high-precision presses, and it is not possible to meet the requirements of metal forming process development on forming machine tools. The product structure of China's metal forming machine tool industry has been continuously optimized in recent years, but at present, the proportion of medium-sized and low-value-added products for metal forming machine tools in China is still relatively large. In the future, the industry's products will be developed to large (heavy) and super-heavy. The downstream industries will require high-speed, high-precision, high-stiffness, composite, and intelligent flexible metal forming machine tools in the process of technological upgrading; the proportion of customized products will gradually increase. To meet the individual needs of different users.
