Current development status and trends of precision machining industry

1. Overview of industry development

Manufacturing is the core industry of the modern industrial system, and the technical level of manufacturing reflects a country's scientific and technological level, international competitiveness and comprehensive national strength; manufacturing products can be widely used in national defense, medical care, aerospace, transportation, electronics and other military And the civilian field is an industry that major industrial powers in the world generally support and develop.

However, my country's manufacturing industry is facing a 'big but not strong' situation, and there is a big gap compared with the world's manufacturing powers. One of the most prominent manifestations is the lag in the processing capacity of supporting components. Precision parts are usually the core components of the whole machine product and are the guarantee for the function of the whole machine product. Therefore, precision parts have very high requirements for quality, consistency, durability, etc.

There are many fine machining manufacturers in my country, and their technical level and processing capabilities are uneven. Although some domestic supporting processing manufacturers can meet the processing quality requirements of precision parts by purchasing advanced production equipment, it is often difficult to maintain the stability and consistency of product quality under the conditions of mass production and controllable cost. .

Realizing high-quality processing and manufacturing under mass production conditions not only requires advanced production equipment and other hardware equipment, but also requires designing and implementing scientific and reasonable production processes based on the product characteristics of the components and customer needs to balance processing quality, product delivery and cost control. and other multiple mutually influential constraints to achieve the optimal combination of production resources such as equipment, tools and personnel; at the same time, in order to ensure the effective implementation of the production process, processing manufacturers also need to establish a complete quality control system and equip production with highly disciplined production team.

2. Industry development trends

(1) With the continuous improvement of my country's manufacturing and processing capabilities, more brand manufacturers will outsource the manufacturing and processing business of precision mechanical parts. However, integrating into the supply chain system of brand manufacturers is a long-term and complex process, which requires high technical capabilities, management systems and service levels of parts manufacturing and processing manufacturers. Generally, it is necessary to go through factory inspection, technical exchange, and small batch samples. to mass production and supply process. Once a manufacturing and processing manufacturer forms a cooperation with a brand manufacturer, the two parties will easily form a long-term and close cooperative relationship, and manufacturing and processing manufacturers can develop together with the development of the brand manufacturer's business.

(2) The application industry of precision machining is more extensive. At present, domestic manufacturing and processing manufacturers mainly focus on electronics, home appliances, automobiles and other industries for supporting parts processing. In the future, with the industrial upgrading of my country's manufacturing industry and the further integration of my country's manufacturing industry into the global manufacturing industry's industrial chain division, domestic precision mechanical processing can be applied to broader fields at home and abroad, such as aerospace, intelligent equipment, rail transportation. , new energy, etc.

(3) The degree of automation of manufacturing and processing equipment is constantly improving. The automated application of equipment can reduce labor costs, improve product accuracy and stability, and improve production efficiency. With the continuous increase in labor costs, manufacturing and processing manufacturers are becoming increasingly willing to adopt automated equipment.

(4) The industry concentration continues to increase. At present, domestic precision manufacturing and processing manufacturers are generally relatively scattered and have uneven technical levels. With the overall upgrading of my country's manufacturing industry, manufacturing and processing manufacturers with small scale, backward equipment and slow improvement in technical level will be gradually eliminated, and manufacturers with a certain scale and strength can gradually expand their market share and increase their influence in the industry. And ultimately establish your own brand.

3. Correctly understand the gaps in the precision mechanical parts processing industry

With the upgrading of consumption, in order to meet consumers' requirements for the personalization and diversity of precision processing products, effectively reduce the production costs of mechanical processing enterprises, and realize flexible management and lean production management of precision parts processing, many precision machinery parts processing factories in my country The introduction of new precision parts processing equipment and the development of new CNC parts processing technology have greatly improved the technical level of my country's hardware parts processing industry and achieved remarkable development achievements.

my country's mechanical parts processing enterprises are mainly concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and Bohai Rim. Looking at the development of my country's precision parts processing industry, it has generally shown that it has a fast development speed, but is unbalanced in the region, small enterprise scale and weak strength. Although there are many precision machinery parts processing plants, their strength is relatively weak. Whether in terms of financial strength or CNC parts processing technology equipment and production processes, there is still a certain gap compared with the precision parts processing industries in industrially developed countries such as Germany and Japan. The domestic mechanical parts processing industry must maintain strategic determination. While focusing on the processing and production of hardware parts, it must increase the efforts to transform and upgrade in order to achieve leapfrog development.
