High-end CNC machine tools into the industry development trend

With the continuous advancement of computer technology, all major countries in the world are aware of the status of CNC machine tools for the entire industry, especially in response to the international financial crisis, they have adjusted the industrial policy of CNC machine tools, competing to develop high-end CNC machine tools to promote industrial and The development of the national economy. The manufacturing industry is undergoing tremendous changes. In particular, the emergence of various new technologies in recent years has led to major changes in various industries.

U.S. Wants to Rejuvenate Manufacturing Industry with New Act

The United States has always attached great importance to the development of the CNC machine tool industry and has solid foundations in the design, manufacture, and numerical control systems of the host computer. Technological progress is a major factor affecting the U.S. numerical control machine tool industry. Intelligent, high-speed, and precision are the mainstream of U.S. machine tool industry development. In August 2010, U.S. President Barack Obama signed the "US Manufacturing Promotion Act." Its main purpose is to increase the competitiveness of "Made in the United States." The bill will reduce or suspend the tariffs that American companies must pay when importing raw materials for production to help U.S. manufacturing companies reduce costs and restore competitiveness. It is expected that after the implementation of the bill, US manufacturing companies will save US$298 million in import tariffs, increase US$4.6 billion in output value, and increase 90,000 jobs within three years. The machine tool industry as a very important production sector in the U.S. manufacturing industry will benefit from the bill.

Japan attaches great importance to the research and development of the machine tool industry, especially CNC machine tool technology, and provides sufficient R&D funding to encourage scientific research institutions and enterprises through planning and formulating laws and regulations (such as "Mechanical Law", "Mechatronic Law" and "Mechanism Law"). Vigorously develop CNC machine tools. Under the encouragement of the "machine vibration method", Japan's CNC machine tool industry has focused on developing key technologies, highlighting the development of numerical control systems and developing core products. The Japanese government also focused on supporting Fanuc, gradually making it the world's largest supplier of numerical control systems. Its numerical control system has a market share of more than 80% in Japan and accounts for about 50% of world sales. Others Manufacturers focus on the development of machining parts. This cooperative division of labor improves the efficiency of Japanese CNC machine tools and avoids the incompatibility of industry standards and weakens competitiveness.

With the gradual recovery of the global economy, the machine tool industry has recovered significantly. EU governments and industry associations have introduced policies to help the industry regain its rapid development. The European Machine Tool Industry Cooperation Council (CECIMO) has 15 member countries and covers the vast majority of EU machine tool manufacturers. In order to maintain the competitive advantages of the European machine tool industry, CECIMO proposes to use advanced production technologies, high R&D investment, rapid innovation cycles, and a highly skilled workforce as the basis for maintaining the future competitiveness of the European machine tool industry and launch a series of Measures to increase market competitiveness.

Germany emphasizes talents and product quality and actively supports SMEs

Machinery manufacturing industry is an important pillar industry in Germany. Due to the strategic position of CNC machine tools in the machinery industry, the German government has given strong support in many aspects. The country attaches great importance to the advanced practicality of the accessories for CNC machine tools, and various functional components rank the highest in the world in terms of quality and performance. Another important feature of the German machinery and equipment manufacturing industry is the concentration of SMEs. The government has adopted a series of measures to encourage SMEs to actively carry out R&D and innovation activities and improve their competitiveness. Such as the most widely covered SME innovation core project (ZIM), ERP projects that provide long-term low-interest loans for corporate innovation programs.

CECIMO promotes the "Future Factory" program in the enterprise for the construction of a European technology platform to guarantee Europe's decisive voice in future investment projects with a total investment of 12 billion Euros. In addition, CECIMO also actively promotes comprehensive industrial policies that promote social economy, finance, and trade, enabling the sustainable development of European industries, thus maintaining the status of European machine tool production and research bases. Pay special attention to "reality" and "effectiveness", adhere to the "people-oriented" principle, hand in hand, and constantly improve the quality of personnel. While vigorously developing automated production lines, Germany has always maintained a scientific attitude of seeking truth from facts, paying special attention to the combination of theory and practice, conducting in-depth research on the common problems of CNC machine tools, and continuing to steadily progress in quality.

China's high-end machine tool products upgrade

After years of efforts, China's mid-to-high-end machine tool products have basically achieved the upgrade and leap from "cannot be done" to "can do." However, the machine tool manufacturing industry is still in the middle and low end of the international division of labor and industrial chain, and is "controlled by people." The phenomenon still exists.

In recent years, China's machine tool and tool manufacturing industry has made great progress, and the economic scale has achieved rapid growth from small to large, ranking first in the world for many years. Researcher Luo Baihui believes that in the field of high-end products, China has achieved a breakthrough from scratch, and the main specifications of mid-to-high-end machine tool products have basically been upgraded from “do not do” to “can do”, and at the same time The overall quality of enterprises has been generally improved, and a group of enterprises with strong market competitiveness have emerged.
