China's machinery industry will also usher in a decade of gold

With a flick of a finger, the China Federation of Machinery Industry has experienced a decade of hardships.

During the past ten years, China Machine Building and China's machinery industry have shared the same destiny and experienced the pulse of the development of the times. Through entrepreneurship, growth, and development, the white paper has been drawn on the scroll and it has also ushered in the history of the development of the machinery industry. Ordinary decade.

“In the past ten years, the machinery industry has made brilliant achievements that have attracted worldwide attention. If this is the golden decade for the development of the machinery industry, then the next decade is still a golden period and is an important opportunity for the development of the machinery industry, despite the challenges. But we are confident that we will achieve greater success in the new decade!"

On March 22, when receiving an exclusive interview, Wang Ruixiang, president of the China Machinery Industry Federation, was full of self-confidence.

The decade has turned into glory. “A decade after entering the new century has been an extraordinary decade in the development of China's machinery industry.” Wang Ruixiang recalled that its characteristics can be summarized as follows: the policy environment is getting better and better, and the industry development performance Significantly, the scientific development has taken new steps, the industrial structure has been optimized and improved, the quality of science and technology has achieved fruitful results, and the international status has significantly improved.

In the ten years, the number of enterprises above the scale of the machinery industry increased from 34,000 to 107,000, and the number of employees was nearly 17 million; the scale of assets increased from 2 trillion yuan to 10 trillion yuan; the total output value of the machinery industry from 1.44 trillion yuan in 2000 Increased to 14.38 trillion yuan in 2010, an average annual growth rate of more than 25%; during eight consecutive years of production and sales growth of more than 1 trillion yuan; despite the severe impact of the financial crisis, but the industry in 2009 both exceeded 10 trillion yuan production and sales In 2010, we stepped up to a new level of 3 trillion yuan annually, with production and sales exceeding 14 trillion yuan.

In the past decade, a large number of products in the machinery industry have leapt to the top of the world. Wang Ruixiang enumerated for reporters that the annual output of power generation equipment exceeded 100 million kilowatts for 5 years in a row, accounting for 50% of the world's total output. The output in 2010 exceeded 120 million kilowatts, which is nearly 10 times that in 2000; the automotive industry realized In a leap-forward development, from 2.07 million vehicles in 2000 to breaking the 10 million mark for the first time in 2009, the company ranked first in the world in terms of production and sales of more than 13 million units. In 2010, it produced and sold 18.26 million and 18.06 million vehicles, respectively. It was 9 times that of 2000; large and medium-sized tractors increased from 41,000 in 2000 to 380,000 in 2010, an increase of more than 9 times in ten years. In addition, the output of many major products such as motorcycles, internal combustion engines, loaders, truck cranes, and bearings is also among the best in the world.

It can be said that this decade is a decade in which the machinery industry has completed its capacity of quantitative change and accumulation in the process of revitalizing development. It is also a decade that will lay a solid foundation for the next step in achieving qualitative change and completing the transition from big to strong. The dramatic changes in the past decade have also condensed the efforts and sweat of the China Machines Association.

In the drafting of the relevant national laws and regulations, the State Council’s opinions on accelerating the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry, the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” mechanical industrial planning and industrial policy, and other important documents, there are industry claims reflected by China Machine Design; a large number of economic and industrial Among the professional research topics for development, there are the wisdom of the industry gathered by China Machine Group; among the national key projects such as the Three Gorges Project, the West-East Gas Transmission Project, and the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, which are related to the national economy and the people's livelihood, there is the hard work of the China Opportunities Organization; Among the large number of landmark achievements made in the autonomy of major technological equipment that has attracted worldwide attention, there are also the hardships paid by China Machines Association and the vast number of companies and service platforms for production, research, and research...

Since the establishment of the Federation, ten years ago, it has always insisted on revitalization as its mission and service as its purpose. It has fully fulfilled its responsibilities, fully played its role as a bridge link, focused on improving industry management support capabilities, and actively promoted the implementation of major national science and technology plans and technological progress in the industry. It has made important contributions to upgrading the level of China's major technological equipment, enhancing the international competitiveness of mechanical products, and promoting the steady and rapid economic development.

Jia Qinglin, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, said in a congratulatory letter to the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the China National Aircraft Association.

Big but not strong weaknesses to be removed from the "brilliant achievements to be treated with customers, but the problems and deficiencies can not be avoided." Interview, Wang Ruixiang repeatedly stressed.

In his view, the "12th Five-Year Plan" period is an important period of strategic opportunities for China's machinery industry, but the internal and external environment it faces is also becoming more complex and severe. Moreover, we are far from a mechanical power. We are still big but not strong. Major contradictions and weak links.

He explained that first, the capacity for independent innovation is still insufficient, advanced technologies rely on foreign countries, and the passive situation in which high-end equipment relies on imports has not been effectively improved; second, basic development has lagged behind, basic parts and components, high-quality special materials, automatic control systems, and test instruments. , CNC machine tools and basic manufacturing equipment obviously lag behind the development of the mainframe, and have become the three major bottlenecks affecting the upgrading of mechanical products to high-end; Third, modern manufacturing has not yet formed scale, the proportion of traditional processing and manufacturing is too large; Fourth, the mode of industrial growth is more extensive.

It goes without saying that if the industry’s own weaknesses cannot be cured as quickly as possible, the machinery industry will be stagnated, and the advancement of the industry into innovation-driven, endogenous growth tracks will also be on paper.

Then, in the face of new situations and challenges, how will the machinery industry seize the opportunity to overcome difficulties? "The key depends on the overall quality of the machinery industry front and the ability to control the situation." Wang Ruixiang believes that the industry must grasp four major issues.

First of all, nurturing and developing high-end equipment manufacturing industry is the only way to make the machinery industry bigger and stronger. Its goal is to eventually realize the independence of core technologies, localization of high-end products, and high value-added export products through industrial upgrading. “Our equipment self-sufficiency rate is 85%, but it is often the 15% that determines our fate and makes us subject to people.” He stressed that we must take it as a priority, strengthen the research and development of core key technologies, break through the weak links in key areas, and create the necessary conditions for the sustainable development of the machinery industry.

Secondly, improving the quality and efficiency of industrial development is an inherent requirement for changing the mode of economic development. The total size of China's machinery industry is not small, but the mode of economic growth is extensive, the level of industrial profits is very low, coupled with multiple pressures such as reduced external demand, rising costs, relative shortage of energy supply, and increased environmental pollution, the industry’s original comparative advantages and Just one step away from the comparative disadvantage, the security situation in the machinery industry is not optimistic.

Secondly, strengthening industrial common technology research is a strong guarantee for improving the innovation capability of the machinery industry. At present, China's common technology research is lagging behind, and it lacks supply systems and mechanisms, which form a bottleneck for industrial innovation and development. To this end, it is necessary to strengthen the nationwide system, strengthen organization and coordination at the national level, and build technology alliances.

Finally, the establishment of a modern industrial system is the ultimate destination for a new type of industrialization. It is also an inevitable choice for the machinery industry to change the mode of economic growth.

Collaborative Operation and Collusion "12th Five-Year Plan"

The "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" is the five-year history of China's machinery industry achieving a historic leap. According to the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan for the Development of Machinery Industry," the industry will strive to improve the quality and efficiency of development and accelerate the realization of equipment in accordance with the overall requirements of "mainly high-end, innovation-driven, solid foundation, integration, and green". The strategic goal of industry from big to strong.

“We must firmly grasp the important period of strategic opportunities for great accomplishments. To this end, China Machine Link will take promoting the sound and rapid development of the machinery industry as the top priority, continue to play a supporting role in the management of the industry, and give play to the advantages of resources to make the machinery bigger and stronger. Industry provides basic guarantees, etc."

Wang Ruixiang explained in detail to reporters: We must continue to strengthen the construction of the scientific and technological work system, further improve the independent innovation capability of the machinery industry, focus on the new characteristics of industrial development, and constantly deepen the standardization work; adhere to the concept of “quality and development” and comprehensively improve the overall quality of the machinery industry; Relying on the specialization of major technical equipment, we will actively promote the development of high-end equipment manufacturing.

“The specialization of major technical equipment for localization is a landmark project for the industry's service work. It is also an important support for the development of high-end equipment industry and comprehensive improvement of the industry level.” He said that in addition to participating in the development of a special plan and pre Prepare work, organize and coordinate the research and development of core technologies and key equipment, as well as further complete the appraisal and acceptance of major technical equipment for the first (set) product, and also coordinate the establishment of a research and development team that integrates manufacturing, research, and production, mainly manufacturing enterprises. And to promote the implementation of the use of domestic first (sets) of equipment to solve the production capacity surplus and the lack of coexistence of shortages of core components, etc., timely proposed macro-control policy recommendations.

At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen technical training, expand the ranks of high-skilled talents in the industry, set up work platforms, and promote innovation in corporate management.

“We are now among the largest countries in the machinery industry. This is the dream of several generations of robots. We should be proud of it. After years of hard work to truly become a manufacturing powerhouse, we will review the past and can do something for the development of the machinery industry. You can also talk about masturbation, after all, we also participated." Wang Ruixiang said with a smile.
