CNC crucible machine tool encounter

At the 13th China International Machine Tool Fair held in April this year, CNC machine tools exhibited by Changsha Machine Tool Co., Ltd. shined, breaking the monopoly of German companies on this project, but this is "Winning machine tool domestic products, but suffered a loss: Although there are a lot of companies that have expressed interest in buying, but have not yet completed a deal.

The machine tool industry is a working machine in the machinery industry. For a long time, the high-end CNC machine tools required for China's economic construction and key projects have mainly depended on imports. The domestic market share of domestic middle-end CNC systems is only 5%, while that for high-end beds is 95%. From overseas, the domestic market share of functional components is only 30%. The transformation and upgrading of China's machine tool industry is imminent, but why is the domestically-made high-end machine tool suffered from the market?

status quo:

The core competitiveness is not strong, and the low-end and over-capacity in the machine tool industry, the number of CNC machine tools as the axis of the drive, 3 and 5 axis for the high-end products, more than 5 axes for high-end products. At present, China's machine tools are mostly low-end products with 3 axes or less.

Unlike the high-end CNC machine tool market, which is basically controlled by Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea, the domestic medium- and low-end machine tool market has basically pushed out foreign competitors.

The reason for this gap is that the person in charge of Changsha Machine Tool Co., Ltd. believes that on the one hand, many companies pay too much attention to short-term interests, and short-term interests become the main basis for enterprise decision-making and resource allocation; on the other hand, users tend to change technology. Lower capital investment.

“Some domestic users of machine tools have lower requirements for accuracy and quality, and the number of products is small and they have to be urgent. Given the input and benefits, they will often choose low-end and medium-end machine tools. The price is affordable, purchase, use, The domestic machine tools that are very convenient after sales are naturally the first choice for these companies." The person in charge of Changsha Machine Tool introduced.

awkward:

Domestic high-end CNC machine tools have been cold-suppressed in the market Since last year, the demand growth of the domestic machinery industry has been slowing down. Many tactile and sensitive machine tool companies have already felt that with the transformation and upgrading of China's national economy, the explosive growth of demand in the early stages of industrialization will soon be over. The requirements for equipment and quality in various industries will become higher and higher, and the market for high-end CNC machine tools in China will become a battleground for military strategists.

In the workshop of Changsha Machine Tool, the reporter saw this year's CNC machine tools that shined at the China International Machine Tool Fair. “Now it is processing gears in batches for the intended customers.” According to the person in charge of Changsha Machine Tool, the current CNC crucible machine tool technology is already very mature and can be used directly in production and processing. There are also many companies that have expressed interest in buying, but There has been no deal to date.

"Customers think that the price is too high is the main reason." The person in charge said bluntly, "But there is no way, our key components of this machine are imported from abroad, and the cost itself is very high."

Even the simplest parts, once used on precision machine tools, must reach a certain degree of precision. The functional components needed for CNC machine tools, such as bearings, oscillating heads, and gratings, are all at the starting stage in China and cannot produce first-class products. The most common components such as screws, guide rails, and knives are also lagging behind. For Chinese companies that are committed to building high-end CNC machine tools, not only are the high-end segments firmly branded by foreign brands, but also high-quality components. Need to import, this brings no hindrance to the industry upgrade.

Small and medium-sized customers can't afford it, and large companies can't use it. "Some large-scale joint ventures have already used the foreign CNC machine tools at the beginning of the production line design. If they want to change the 'parent machine', the product can not be applied on the one hand, and on the other hand, the joint venture can not accept it is also the key." Peng Keli, deputy general manager of Hunan Haijie Precision Industry Co., Ltd., said, “In such a situation, we can only provide trial services to those customers who are interested in purchasing, and let them feel the benefits of high-end CNC machine tools in the country, so as to obtain the customer’s stand by."

Remarkably strive to enter the "high society"

Cracking the industrial development of domestic machine tools, on the one hand, the major companies to strengthen the hard power of the main products, on the other hand, machine tool companies have also launched different levels of CNC machine tools for different customer groups.

As the trump card of Changsha Machine Tool, the broaching series has always been the first in the country. "The most common application is in the automotive sector. Last year, Chery Automobile placed an order of 800 million dollars in us within three months." The person in charge of Changsha Machine Tool Co., Ltd. introduced: "Like China Sany Heavy Industry [1.60% funding research] ], BYD [2.01% Capital Research], Chery, Geely and other companies, their gearboxes, gearboxes, driveshafts, tank engines are used to process our company's broaching machine."

Traditional advantages can not be lost, and high-end technology must catch up. Haijie's sophisticated CNC8312A CNC high-speed camshaft grinder has been used by many companies in the military industry.

On the other hand, the formation of a technological innovation system in which enterprises are the mainstay and the combination of production, study and research is also a choice for many companies to change the competitiveness of high-end CNC machine tools. “Although we go to universities every year to tap professional talents, the training process of CNC machine tools is very long. At present, the level of treatment is limited, and the loss of talents is also serious. Therefore, the combination of production, learning and research is still the direction of our current corporate development.” Changsha Machine Tool Manager said.

According to statistics from the Industrial Development Research Center of the Foresighted Industry Research Institute, the average annual compound growth rate of China's CNC machine tool production in the past five years was 37.39%. According to He Danyang, a researcher of the CNC machine tool industry of the Industry Research Institute of Forward Looking Industries, the average annual growth rate of CNC machine tools in China will exceed 10% in the future. By 2015, the demand for CNC systems in China will reach 400,000 sets, and annual sales will reach 850 billion yuan.
