The transformation of domestic machine tool market demand for structural upgrading is imperative

The main task of China during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period is to adjust the structure and change the mode. Therefore, the structural upgrading and transformation of the user industry has become a driving force for the development of machine tool market demand to the high-end. Due to the high import pressure, the market share of domestic machine tools in 2012 was 66.1%, which was 0.8% lower than the previous year.

In 2012, a large number of scientific and technological advancements in the machine tool industry entered the field of application, and the market demand for high-end products continued to increase. Under the impetus of this internal and external power, the adjustment of the industry's product structure has progressed significantly, and a number of high-end machine tools and protective covers have emerged. Towline work light, machine mattress iron.

In 2012, the rate of production of CNCs increased by 1.8 percentage points over the previous year, and the numerical control rate of output value increased by 2.2 percentage points over the previous year. The growth rate of output value of domestic metal processing machine tools is also much higher than that of output. The average unit price of metal processing machine tools increased by 15.3% year-on-year, of which the average unit price of forming machine tools increased by 35.9% year-on-year.

In 2012, the import growth rate of metal processing machine tools was as high as 40.6%, which was 11.2 percentage points higher than the growth rate of the output value of similar machine tools in China. Imports from Germany and Japan accounted for two-thirds of the total, pushing up the average unit price of metal processing machine tool imports by 33.2% year-on-year.

“In recent years, the numerical control rate of domestic metal processing machine tools has been continuously increasing regardless of quantity or amount.” The related data reflects the acceleration of market demand structure upgrade, and the user’s demand for medium and high-end products has increased significantly. It also reflects domestic High-end products cannot meet this change in many aspects such as technological level, industrialization, ability to adapt to the market, and overall services.

As far as the Chinese market is concerned, the current situation facing the machine tool industry is more severe. The explosive growth over the years will not continue. The slowdown in market demand will slow down; improving quality and pursuing connotative growth will be an inevitable result of China's industrialization process. In the process, this forced the machine tool companies to constantly worry and fear, and took measures to implement them and put them into action.
