Interpretation of Machine Tool "Twelfth Five-Year" Series Part Two

In the first half of 2011, the machine tool industry continued the hot market in 2010, and many leading companies' operating income increased by more than 30% year-on-year.

For example, Shenyang Machine Tool achieved sales revenue of 9.3 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 32%, which is 52% of the annual plan; CNC machine tool production and sales reached 18,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 47%, which was 56% of the annual plan.

From January to June, Qinchuan Group's enterprises achieved operating income of 4.27 billion yuan, an increase of 35% year-on-year; profit and tax of 310 million yuan, an increase of 43% year-on-year.

According to the statistics of the China Machine Tool Industry Association, the machine tool industry accumulated a total industrial output value of 129.40 billion yuan in the first quarter of 2011, an increase of 38.1% year-on-year; the cumulative product sales output value of 126.43 billion yuan, an increase of 39.2% year-on-year.

Looking back at the 2010 data, the machine tool industry completed the total industrial output value of 553.68 billion yuan, a year-on-year growth rate of up to 40.6%, how exciting.

In fact, from 2002 to 2010, China has been ranked as the world's largest consumer and importer of metal processing machine tools for nine consecutive years. In 2009 and 2010, China also became the world's largest producer of metal processing machine tools.

Three laurels are at the head, it can be said that China's machine tool industry has entered a golden period of development. But the old saying is: My body is my three provinces. Therefore, at this "best moment", we should probably look back to see how much the real level has improved in recent years, and what deficiencies still need to be improved.

Six regrets under rapid development

——The main machine is big but not strong In 2009, the output value of China's metal processing machine tools reached 15.3 billion US dollars, becoming the world's largest machine tool production country.

However, over the years, the overall level of the mainframe is still far from the advanced level abroad. There are few enterprises that can provide users with complete sets and line services. They lack the ability to provide complete solutions or undertake more complex engineering general contracting projects. The mid-to-high-end CNC machine tools urgently needed in the market mainly rely on imports.

In 2008, China's metal processing machine tool imports amounted to US $ 7.59 billion, of which metal cutting machine tools were US $ 5.68 billion; metal forming machine tools were US $ 1.91 billion. Despite the impact of the financial crisis in 2009, the amount of imports decreased, but it still reached 5.9 billion US dollars, including metal cutting machine tools 4.56 billion US dollars; metal forming machine tools 1.34 billion US dollars.

In 2010, the import value hit a new high again, reaching 9.42 billion US dollars, an increase of 24.4% compared with the highest point in history in the same period of 2008. Among them, the main products with large imports are: machining centers, CNC lathes, precision grinding machines and special processing machine tools.
