Increased demand for heavy machine tools requires increased investment

With the rapid development of industries such as energy and power, shipbuilding and ocean shipping, aerospace, transportation, defense and military, construction machinery, and metallurgical equipment, and the ever-increasing scale, the demand for heavy-duty machine tools has become increasingly prominent. In order to meet the needs of national economic development, independent innovation of heavy-duty machine tools has emerged and has been able to basically meet the development needs of various fields.

Relevant statistics show that in the past three years, the total output value of China's heavy machine tool products has increased year after year. In 2008, it has exceeded 12 billion yuan and the total output is close to 2,000 units. Such a large-scale production of heavy machine tools is the highest in the world, and the output of such a large-scale heavy machine tool can also be among the best in the world. According to incomplete statistics, the heavy machine tools imported from 2006 to 2008 accounted for about 1/3 of the total market of China's heavy machine tools, but the number of machines is much less. It can be seen that the imported heavy machine tools are all high value-added high-end CNC machine tools. In China's huge market of heavy machine tools, there is still a large demand for high-end products.

Industry agencies and experts also repeatedly appealed that new investment in heavy machine tools should not only stop at the blind expansion of production capacity and the repeated construction of existing products, but should increase investment in research and development of high-end products, and quickly upgrade China's high-grade heavy-duty machine tools. Manufacturing level and capacity.
