Innovating CNC machine tools for the first time exceeded 250,000 units

In 2011, China's machinery industry realized a total industrial output value of 16.89 trillion yuan, an increase of 25.06% year-on-year. The total profit realized in the year was 1,2013 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 21.14%. Of the 120 major mechanical products included in express statistics, the production of 102 products increased year-on-year. Among them, the output of CNC machine tools was 257,100 units, an increase of 20.6% over the previous year, and output exceeded 250,000 units for the first time, setting a record high. The growth rate of CNC machine tools is about 5 percentage points higher than that of ordinary machine tools. With the rapid growth of CNC machine tools, the adjustment of industrial structure has been carried out in an orderly manner and has accelerated significantly. One of the outstanding performances is to rely on independent innovation to accelerate the upgrading of technology products to the high end.

Independent innovation is the key All along, the level, variety, and production capability of CNC machine tools directly reflect the country’s overall technical and economic strength. As the strategic equipment of the national defense industry, CNC machine tools are the most important means of manufacturing all kinds of weapons and equipment and are an important guarantee for the modernization of national defense and military equipment. In 2010, the production value of 28 major CNC machine tool producing countries and regions in the world reached 66.3 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 21% from the same period last year to 54.7 billion U.S. dollars. In the process of recovery of the world's CNC machine tool industry, China has played a leading role. China has for many years become the world's largest consumer and importer of CNC cutting machine tools.

In recent years, thanks to the national environment for revitalizing the equipment manufacturing industry and strong market demand, the domestic machine tool industry has witnessed rapid technological development and high investment enthusiasm. At present, the leadership of the Party Central Committee and the State Council attaches great importance to revitalizing the equipment manufacturing industry. The “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” has taken revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry as the main content to promote the optimization and upgrading of industrial structure, and CNC machine tools have become one of the focuses of the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry.

However, revitalizing the CNC machine tool industry has a certain degree of difficulty for the machine tool industry. According to Luo Baihui, secretary-general of the International Mould and Hardware and Plastics Industry Suppliers Association, the digital manufacturing technology required for the development of CNC machine tools is the core of advanced manufacturing and is the key to achieving independent innovation. Therefore, for the whole industry, rejuvenating the CNC machine tool industry is both a strategic opportunity and a severe challenge.

Internationally, only a few companies, such as Germany's Siemens and Japan's Sunac, control the heart of the global machine tool industry, the CNC system. In order to develop the numerical control system, China's machine tool companies have gone through the imitation route and have also tried to introduce huge amounts of technology. The actual combat has failed. International counterparts are wary of China's entry into the core areas of machine tools. German experts said more directly that R&D cooperation alone is not possible because of the violation of local laws. Japan's TNC, which only sells numerical control systems, has earned a lot from this monopoly, but has forced most machine tool hardware makers to marginal margins.

Kaka is because you did not, you did not because it was too difficult. Although there are high profits in the high places, the high places do not win. Difficult to come to many domestic top hospitals and sigh, has long been classified as a major research topic but it can not be sustained for a long time. Shen Xiyou, chairman of Shenyang Machine Tool Group, told reporters: “The core technology cannot be bought, only relying on independent innovation. If there is insufficient enterprise strength, open innovation and integrate social innovation resources.” Shenyang Machine Tool United Nations 8 companies and 6 institutions The "CNC Machine Tool Industry Technology Innovation Alliance" has only 500 non-corporate scientific research personnel involved in collaborative research. In addition to the headquarters, Shenyang Machine Tool divides the fulcrum of R&D design in Shanghai, Beijing and Germany. In October 2011, Good News came from Shanghai and Shenzhen respectively. The software technology of the CNC system was successfully broken through, and the software and hardware integration and matching successfully broke through. What is even more gratifying is that the Shenyang CNC machine tools equipped with independent intellectual property right numerical control system have bulk orders. The CEOs of Italian machine tool companies saw Shenyang Machine Tool developed a numerical control system and were greatly surprised to take the initiative to be “acquired” because they had no core secrets. Shenyang Machine Tool Co., Ltd. refused to send cooperation to the door because we had mastered the core secrets. Guan Xiyou believes that for homemade machine tools, the autonomy of the CNC system not only means that it can “breathe fresh air at high altitudes”, and the numerical control system that accounts for nearly half of the price of CNC machine tools is no longer subject to human control. More importantly, it ends the domestic CNC system. The machine tool can only purchase the history of the imported parts of the numerical control system, and thus it will be personalized and intelligent. In 2011, which was generally declining in the industry, Shenyang Machine Tool won high growth with its own innovation. The group achieved sales of 18 billion yuan, ranking first in the world's machine tool industry for the first time in terms of operating scale, and ranking the industry leader in profitability.

Seek continuous breakthrough experts believe that: "At present, the user demand for high-end products of CNC machine tools is relatively strong. The outstanding performance is on the one hand the rapid increase in the number. The proportion of CNC machine tools in the total consumption of machine tools has risen to more than 60%, and the "Twelve Five" During the 12th Five-Year Plan period, with the development of high-level new products in key areas of the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry, each field has made even greater demands on CNC machine tools. High demand. Such as the development of large-scale thermal power generation and nuclear power plants, the manufacture of large-scale chemical equipment, the development of large-scale marine transportation vessels, the development of large-scale thin-plate hot and cold continuous rolling complete sets of equipment, the development of high-speed trains, new types of subways, and rail transit vehicles, all require a large number of high-speed, precision, and high-efficiency. And special CNC machine tools to manufacture. The development of a new generation of weapons, ships, aircraft, satellites and missiles also places higher demands on CNC machine tools. It is expected that China's fixed asset investment will maintain rapid growth in 2012, and industrial restructuring, technological progress and industrial upgrading will all bring considerable market demand to the machine tool industry.

The rapid development of science and technology in the world today is pregnant with a new revolutionary breakthrough. Processing technology has entered the era of sub-micron and nano-scale ultra-finishing, networked manufacturing technology is in the ascendant, and green manufacturing is on the rise. Digital manufacturing using CNC machine tools as a technology platform has improved the new level of smart manufacturing. Technology integration and technology compounding have become a numerically-controlled machine tool. One of the most dynamic trends in technology.
