“There are more and more companies involved in the heavy machine tool market now. More than 50 gantry-type boring and milling machines (including simple CNC models) have been started or are currently being produced in China.†Chen Yanlin, China National Machine Tool Industry Association’s industry development department, told Chinese industry Reporter: "Recently, the Association has visited a number of companies and found that many companies are preparing to enter the heavy machine tool market. So the association has issued early warnings to companies in the industry and hopes that companies can carefully consider them."
While in Wuhan Heavy Machine Tool Group (referred to as "Wuzhong") served for more than 20 years, the current chief engineer of Wuzhong Guilin does not agree with the "fire" in the heavy machine tool market. He believes that in recent years, driven by the country's domestic demand, the market demand for heavy machine tools has indeed expanded a lot, but it has not reached the point of "fire." Now companies want to launch heavy machine tool projects, perhaps with the sharp decline in the domestic and international market demand for machine tools caused by the financial crisis. Because this crisis has had little impact on the heavy machine tool market, many machine tool manufacturers have turned to the big and heavy machine tool market, which has a better market.
The project stimulates demand for growth. Guilin believes that during the 30 years of reform and opening up, only during the “Seventh Five-Year†and “Eighth Five-Year Plan†period, companies have invested relatively much in technological transformation. So today, with the rapid development of the national industrial economy, There is an urgent need for investment in technological transformation. In this context, heavy machine tools ushered in the peak wave of the industry's development. "This is a normal development cycle." Guilin said.
In response to the global financial crisis, the country has adopted various policies to expand domestic demand and maintain economic growth. This includes accelerating the construction of major infrastructure such as railways, highways and airports. These policies will, to a large extent, stimulate the market demand for heavy machine tools. At the same time, the ten industrial restructuring and revitalization plans that will be introduced in succession will also use a loan interest subsidy method to arrange a special fund of 20 billion yuan to support enterprises in technological transformation. It is expected that this will directly drive 460 billion yuan of investment in the entire society. Refined to the machine tool industry, the company has also paid close attention to the "Special Guidelines for High-end CNC Machine Tools and Basic Manufacturing Equipment". The special projects are mainly aimed at aerospace, shipbuilding, automotive and power generation equipment. The needs of these industries are aimed at large and heavy machine tool products, such as the major tasks proposed by major special projects, high-speed precision composite CNC machine tools (18 types) and heavy CNC machine tools (7 types) , CNC special-purpose machine tools (4 kinds), large CNC forming stamping equipment (11 kinds) and so on. In addition to the special tasks listed above, a large number of CNC machine tools and special machine tools of different types and specifications are required, such as various NC special equipment required for large aircraft manufacturing, and large-scale steam turbines and generator rotors. Root and groove milling machine" and "CNC rotor slot milling machine" and so on.
All these make the market demand for heavy machine tools very strong. Guilin recognizes that Wu's recurring orders are full, and according to the current production capacity, it cannot meet the needs of the market. In the face of huge market demand, it is not surprising that machine tool companies have changed their minds, transformed their production, and advanced into the heavy machine tool market for military and aerospace manufacturing.
In 2004, the national large-scale aircraft project encouraged independent innovation companies to enter the high-end machine tool market. To this end, Shenyang Machine Tool began to take the path of development of high-end machine tools, and developed a beam-moving gantry five-axis machining center suitable for the processing of aircraft large-scale aluminum alloy plate parts, to protect large aircraft manufacturing. The Qinchuan Group also took the aviation manufacturing industry as the breakthrough point and successfully developed a worm wheel brush bed for aviation worm wheel disk special equipment. The reporter noticed that the top four players in the machine tool industry are the Shenyang Machine Tool Group, Dalian Machine Tool Group, Qizhong CNC Equipment Co., Ltd., and Qi 2 Machine Tool Group Co., Ltd. Qizhong and Qi 2 Machine Tools have all made significant advances, which is not unrelated to the prosperity of the heavy machine tool market in recent years.
The expansion of the enterprise needs to be prudent under the financial crisis. The increase in inventory is a common problem faced by many machine tool companies. In this regard, the China Machine Tool Industry Association has conducted a large-scale sampling survey of industry and industry stocks. The results show that, in terms of product specifications, most of the inventory is small and medium-sized machine tool products, while large-scale, heavy-duty products still keep the market selling, even non-CNC large-scale, heavy-duty products are also very popular with the market, which envy the other branches of the machine tool industry Endlessly. In the international market, it is another scene. Since the 90s of last century, the famous foreign heavy machine tool manufacturers have changed their doors. For example, the German heavy machine tool manufacturing industry, once rated as the world leader, has been declining due to the long-term slump in the world machine tool market. Famous manufacturers such as Heath and Coburg have ceased to be the main players in the independent market. This allows Shenyang Machine Tool, North One Machine Tool and other companies have the possibility of overseas mergers and acquisitions.
The current prosperity of China's heavy machine tool market is also benefiting from the international market. As the so-called "he" eliminates "this" increase, the world's heavy machine tool competitors are relatively weakened. Through the introduction of absorption, China's heavy machine tool companies are accelerating their growth. Taking Wu Zhong as an example, in the past two years, its overseas markets have expanded very rapidly. Many large-scale equipment have been exported to European and American markets. For example, Wuzhong's 8-meter vertical-vehicle has been exported to Canada. The 5-meter vertical-vehicle is exported to Brazil. The 8-meter vertical lathe, the 4.5-meter-wide Gantry mobile boring and milling machine, and the boring axis 260-mm boring mill have been exported. United Kingdom.
It is understood that in the first quarter of this year, Wuzhong's contract orders have exceeded 500 million yuan, of which contract orders for which advance payments have already been made have exceeded 300 million yuan. In the face of strong orders, the greatest pressure from Wuzhong now comes from the increase in production capacity. In the face of the pressure of delivery, Wuchang factory has already begun to put into use, and now the new factory and the old factory will start production at the same time. In recent years, the technological transformation of machine tool companies has been very strong. According to the statistics of the China Tool Industry Association in 2007, the self-investment funds of the entire industry have exceeded 20 billion yuan, mainly used for the construction of new factories and equipment procurement. . Wu Lin, director general of the China Tool Industry Association, concluded that from the first few years of the Tenth Five-Year Plan, the expansion of the Chinese machine tool industry can be roughly divided into two stages. The first stage is the expansion of the scale, mainly in the capacity building. On the second stage is the expansion of the specifications, such as the big lathe to do small lathes, heavy lathes to do big lathes, gantry milling for small milling machines, and super heavy-duty milling machines for gantry milling machines. Wu Bolin also believes that the development of the market to today, you can see companies blindly expanding production capacity, especially the rapid expansion of production capacity of middle and low-end products is currently experiencing a huge market crisis. At present, many companies have invested in the construction of heavy-duty plants and the purchase of heavy equipment. He hoped that before the enterprises competed for cakes in the heavy machine tool market, they must conduct multiple surveys, have a full understanding of the market, and carefully enter.
