At present, China is a large machine tool country, which has a long way to go from being a powerful machine tool country, and is also a major global machine tool consumer. China's machine tool market has entered the machine tool market one after another in order to ensure the profits of machine tool manufacturers in the case of sufficient capacity and fierce competition of low-end machine tools.
In 2012, the current competition pattern of China's CNC cutting machine tool industry entered the stage of brand fighting, and the brands at this stage were subdivided into medium, medium and upper, medium and high market segments. With the medium market mainly relying on price war, the operation became more and more difficult, leading many brands to start to develop upstream, and strive to obtain more brand added value and development space.
2012 is a difficult year for China's CNC cutting machine tool industry; 2012 is more difficult and complex for the entire CNC cutting machine tool industry. Through research, we found that the increase in sales in the first quarter largely depends on the digestion of inventory. In such an environment, China's CNC cutting machine tool industry faces many challenges, especially for Chinese local enterprises, which are clustered in low-end products and take price as the main means of competition, with weak risk resistance and low industrial concentration. Even in this environment, there are still some new brands entering the market, which shows the intensity of industry competition.
The fierce competition in the industry also promotes the development of China's machine tool industry, because only high-quality brands can obtain a larger market share and compete with foreign enterprises. In the new round of five-year plan, according to the "Twelfth Five Year" development plan for the machine tool industry released by the state, the new industrialization path of "integration of industrialization and industrialization" is to take scientific development as the theme, accelerate the transformation of development mode as the main line, and take strategic structural adjustment as the main direction. Grasp the important strategic opportunities for the development of the industry, take the development of CNC machine tools as the main task, the host machine as the leader, and the improvement of supporting facilities as the basis, break through the weaknesses of CNC systems and functional components, and accelerate the industrialization of CNC machine tools. The supporting functional components required by CNC machine tools were mentioned in the 12th Five Year Plan. The development of these functional components has become a bottleneck restricting the development of the machine tool industry.
The Twelfth Five Year Plan also clearly proposes to eliminate backward production capacity, such as the production of products with high pollution and high energy consumption, to produce and develop high-tech products, to upgrade China's machine tool products, and to use high-tech to go abroad and go global. During the "Twelfth Five Year Plan" period, with the industrial upgrading of the downstream user industry, higher technical requirements will be put forward for the products of the machine tool and tool industry, which also breeds greater market demand space.
Therefore, China's machine tool industry, especially in the field of machine tools, will be a process of continuous competition and elimination in the next few years, which will promote the progress of the entire industry chain.
