Heavy machine industry stepped in to adjust the association to push the high-end route

From July 20 to 22, the Sixth General Assembly and the Council of China Heavy Machinery Industry Association were held in Beijing. At the meeting, the Heavy Machinery Association introduced the industry data for the past year and the first half of this year. Xu Shanji, the fifth executive deputy director, stated in response to the current industry situation: “There are uncertain factors in the economic form this year. The decline in the industrial economy with external demand is continuation of the slowdown in growth rate in the second half of last year. ."

Association data released in 2011 heavy industrial machinery industry output value of 868.61 billion yuan, an increase of 26.2%; industrial sales value of 846.13 billion yuan, an increase of 27%; export value of 13.96 billion US dollars, an increase of 20.4%; import value of 6.89 billion US dollars, year-on-year The increase was 15.7%; the import and export surplus was US$7.076 billion, an increase of 36.9% year-on-year; the profit was 58.45 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 23.9%.

In terms of sub-sectors, the sales value of the metallurgical machinery industry was 101.93 billion yuan, an increase of 12.3% year-on-year; the export value was 1.58 billion US dollars, an increase of 10.8% year-on-year. The enterprises with metallurgical equipment mainly declined.

Mining machinery industry sales value of 276.67 billion yuan, an increase of 33.75%; export value of 1.443 billion US dollars, an increase of 54%. The export growth of mining equipment, screening and washing equipment, drilling rigs, mining hoisting equipment and mining machinery parts all exceeded 40%, but the export value of crushing grinding equipment fell by a large margin, a decrease of 47.13% year-on-year.

The sales value of the lifting and transport machinery industry was 467.53 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.8%. The output value of bridges and gantry cranes that were overcapacity grew by only 9%, and the sales of parking equipment increased by about 30%. The export situation was good; the export value was 109.39 Billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year increase of 24.9%, of which light and small exports of equipment, cranes (except bridges, gantry cranes), elevator lifts, continuous handling equipment and parts exports are strong.

From January to May of 2012, the gross industrial output value of the heavy machinery industry was 365.6 billion yuan, a decrease of 14 percentage points from the same period. Compared with January to April, the growth rate dropped by 1.13 percentage points. Among them, the metallurgical machinery industry fell by 3.8 percentage points over the same period; the mining machinery industry fell by 14 percentage points over the same period; the material handling industry fell by 16 percentage points over the same period.

The development momentum of the medium-sized enterprises in the heavy mining industry is still good, and a heavy industry company in Shandong has nearly doubled its growth rate over the same period of last year.

The market growth of bridges and gantry cranes slowed down, and orders for more concentrated production in Henan Changyuan fell by more than 40%, reflecting that it was difficult for small and medium-sized enterprises to receive orders, while Weihua Group's growth was rapid.

The market for continuous handling equipment was relatively good. The output value increased by 35.61% over the same period of last year. The situation of large-scale enterprise groups was relatively good, blocking imports and the export situation was optimistic. The advantages of belt conveyors continue to grow.

This year's industry product import and export situation continues to maintain a strong growth momentum. In the first five months of 2012, the total import and export volume of the heavy machinery industry was US$9.1 billion, an increase of 16% year-on-year.

The continuous improvement of technological innovation Xu Shanji concluded that in recent years, the major key enterprise groups in the heavy machinery industry have stepped up scientific and technological innovation capacity building, developed a number of products with technical and quality levels at or near the international advanced level, and entered the markets of Europe, America and emerging countries. . The process of internationalization of large-scale enterprises has been accelerated, which has promoted the export of products and the steady and rapid development of enterprises.

A heavy forging welded hot wall hydrogenation reactor was exported to India; 4 m3, 10 m3, and 35 m3 excavators were exported to India, Russia, Kazakhstan, and other countries; the large scale of CITIC Heavy Industries Ball mills exported to more than 20 countries including Australia, Brazil, and Russia and established sales networks in Australia, Brazil, Chile, etc.; Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industry produced large-scale marine pipelaying systems and equipment exported to the United States; Dalian Heavy Industry’s large-scale bulk material handling machinery exported to Brazil. North Heavy's cement complete sets of equipment, mine equipment, and full-face tunnelling machines are exported to India, Brazil, and Iran.

The characteristics of China's economic development during the adjustment period of the industry are driven by fixed assets investment, export, and consumption troika. At present, the European debt crisis is more prominent. Demand in the international market has dropped drastically and the market has shrunk. The form of exports is generally severe. Due to the rapid rise in energy, raw materials and labor wages, the increase in corporate costs, and the excessive appreciation of the renminbi, resulting in a decrease in the export competitiveness of our products. Fortunately, the import and export of the heavy machinery industry in the first five months of this year was better, to a certain extent Make up for the lack of domestic market.

The Chinese economy must take the path of sound development, and it must have a relatively long adjustment period to change the adjustment of economic growth mode and industrial structure. It is inevitable that the growth rate will be slowed down. This is determined by the laws of the market. This year China's GDP growth will be positioned at 7.5%. The equipment manufacturing industry is the pillar industry of the national economy and will still maintain about 15% growth.

Xu Shanji said that he expects the growth rate of the heavy machine industry will decline month by month before September this year, and will rebound slightly from the fourth quarter. The total industrial sales value will maintain a growth of 12% to 14%, but the growth rate will decrease by 13 to 15 percentage points compared with 2011.

He believes that the recent decline in orders will continue until September this year. The national government will strengthen macro-control measures and put steady growth on an important position. In the recent past, it has repeatedly lowered the renminbi deposit reserve ratio and lowered the interest rates for renminbi deposits and loans. To promote economic development and avoid a sharp economic downturn, the country still needs to expedite the approval of key projects. The project will increase investment in fixed assets for key infrastructure projects to stimulate economic development.

At the same time, he also stated that large-scale enterprises in the heavy machinery industry are all state-owned enterprises. In the past decade, large-scale technological transformation and rapid expansion of production capacity have resulted in a serious excess of production capacity, high corporate assets and liabilities, and low total investment contribution rate. The investment efficiency is relatively low.

Heavy-duty machinery products are mostly associated with fixed-asset investment. With the international financial crisis, especially the European debt crisis, the international market has shrunk, the growth of domestic economic forms has slowed down, the scale of fixed-asset investment has contracted, and the overall market space of the industry has shrunk. China’s iron and steel industry has a serious excess production capacity, and large companies serving the metallurgical industry have experienced a sharp decline in sales and profits. The adjustment of industrial structure is very difficult. In the high-end manufacturing sector, due to the lack of previous research and development investment and insufficient technology reserves, it cannot keep up with domestic and international Changes in the market, the momentum of development is not strong enough, it is worrying that the impact of large-scale industrial restructuring and development.

Overcapacity is still plagued by the industry Xu Shanji said that the supervision of major equipment investment is inefficient and a serious waste of state assets. The production capacity of large-scale casting and forging parts is too dispersive. For its heavy-duty forging equipment, there are more than 10 large-scale 10,000-ton hydraulic presses and hydraulic presses according to incomplete statistics. It is said that some companies continue to use 20,000-ton-class hydraulic presses for nuclear power equipment. At present, the operating rate of presses is relatively low, a large amount of state funds are wasted, investment returns are low, and the country has not introduced effective policies and measures.

The production of large-scale major equipment and the government lacked effective policy guidance. According to incomplete statistics, there are currently more than 20 domestic manufacturers of shield machines. Apart from Northern Heavy Industry, Shanghai Tunnel, and China Railway Tunnel, a few enterprises have independent research and development capabilities, and most enterprises only use the technology and key components of famous foreign companies. They only make steel structures and carry out assembly production. Most of their profits are earned by foreign companies. Large-scale enterprises with large investments in China have a serious shortage of production tasks, resulting in great waste.

With excessive production capacity of bridges and gantry cranes, the market competition of medium and small-sized belt conveyors has become fierce. The price war has reached a level of enthusiasm, especially for small and medium-sized bridges and gantry cranes.

In addition, the talent crisis in the industry is relatively prominent, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, weak research and development forces, lack of leading talents and high-tech workers, has become the bottleneck of development.

Due to fierce market competition, declining sales prices of products, rising raw materials and labor wages, and various burdens on enterprises, with the state controlling loans, the capital chain of SMEs will be in crisis.

The association pushed for the recommendation of the High-end Manufacturing Heavy Machinery Association to organize major scientific and technological research projects in the high-end manufacturing sector, and to organize joint research on production, learning, and research involving large-scale enterprises. In conjunction with project support projects, the state increased funding support and rationality. distribution.

Strengthen the training, introduce high-end scientific and technological talents, and promote the key technologies of high-end equipment manufacturing.

Strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights is conducive to promoting cooperation in production, learning, and research, and advancing the adjustment of industrial structure supported by technological innovation.

For industries with overcapacity, such as bridges and gantry cranes, it is necessary to strictly control the issuance of licenses, and to increase the threshold for issuance at the time of replacement, which will help promote the industrial upgrading and strategic reorganization of enterprises.

Grasping market opportunities, strengthening work on revision of standards, and eliminating outdated production capacity are conducive to participating in international competition and accelerating access to the international market.
