Chinese machine tools - dare to compete with strong players

Technological innovation breaks monopoly
In 2005, the relevant leaders of the central government inspected the domestic machine tool manufacturers represented by Qizhong Numerical Control Equipment Co., Ltd. (formerly Qiqihar First Machine Tool Plant), Wuhan Heavy Machine Tool Co., Ltd. and Weihai Huadong CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd. The development of industry has made many important instructions: "The machine tool is the working machine of the equipment manufacturing industry, and the modernization of the equipment manufacturing industry depends on the development level of China's machine tools. To revitalize the equipment manufacturing industry, we must first revitalize the machine tool industry." Adjustment, take a new road to industrialization, vigorously develop CNC machine tools, and create famous brands.

Going abroad and developing globally
The party and state leaders attach great importance to the machine tool manufacturing industry and have pointed out the direction for the machine tool industry. After the central government approved the key support and development of the machine tool industry, China's machine tool manufacturing enterprises and scientific research personnel have made many new breakthroughs in the independent innovation of machine tool manufacturing industry through unremitting efforts. Among them, Qizhong Numerical Control Equipment Co., Ltd. successfully developed vertical and horizontal lathe series, Wuhan heavy-duty machine tool limited development of CKX53 series CNC single-column mobile vertical lathe, Changsha Zhongda Chuangyuan CNC Equipment Co., Ltd. launched high-grade CNC Spiral bevel gear grinding machine. At present, Qizhong CNC Equipment Co., Ltd. has become the leader of the domestic machine tool industry, China's CNC machine tool production base, and has successfully ranked among the top 500 Chinese machinery. The leading products include heavy-duty CNC vertical and horizontal lathes, heavy-duty deep hole drilling boring machines, railway lathes, and roll lathes. Among them, the company's market share of CNC heavy-duty horizontal lathes and CNC vertical lathes has reached 95% and 70% respectively. In particular, its self-developed HT250×100/80-NC CNC heavy-duty horizontal lathe can be used for rough and fine machining of hard alloys, ceramics and other tools, with strong seismic resistance and working accuracy. Large domestic and foreign companies such as Siemens, Baosteel Group and China National Shipping Corporation are customers of the company. At the same time, the company also provided a large number of CNC equipment for the national key projects such as the Three Gorges Project, the West-East Gas Pipeline, and the West-East Power Transmission. These CNC machine tools have broken through the technological monopoly of large foreign companies. At the China Science and Technology Conference held at the beginning of this year, the CKX53160 CNC single-column mobile vertical milling lathe independently developed by Wuhan Heavy Machine Tool Co., Ltd. won the second prize of National Science and Technology Progress Award in 2005. It is reported that this product is another national award after winning the first prize of the mechanical industry science and technology progress in 2004. It shows that the development level of China's high-end CNC machine tools, especially high-end super-heavy-duty CNC vertical cars, has been ranked among the world's advanced. Cross-border cooperation to open up new roads In recent years, China's machine tool manufacturers have joined forces with international machine tool companies to develop better and better. The main reason is that the advanced management mode of multinational corporations is gradually affecting the production and operation of China's machinery industry. Local machinery manufacturing enterprises are continually drawing on foreign advanced management concepts, getting rid of all kinds of malpractices in business management, and prompting enterprises to enter benign Development track. At present, China's machine tool enterprises have successively cooperated and acquired with many world-renowned machine tool enterprises including the United States, Germany and Japan. Among them, only between 2002 and 2004, Dalian Machine Tool Group acquired the American Ingersoll Production Systems and the well-known German company Zimmermann.

In March 2005, Harbin Measuring Tool Group successfully acquired German Kaishi Company; in October of the same year, Beijing Jingcheng Electromechanical Holding Co., Ltd. successfully acquired the German Aldolf Waddrikko Fort Machine Tool through its subsidiary Beijing No. 1 Machine Tool Plant. Factory Co., Ltd. After reorganizing Yunnan CY Group, Shenyang Machine Tool Group acquired the entire share capital of Jiaoda Kunji Technology Co., Ltd. held by Xi'an Jiaotong University Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. in September last year. China's machine tool companies have carried out a series of cross-border cooperation and mergers and acquisitions, effectively utilizing domestic and foreign resources, and opened up a new way to improve the visibility of Chinese companies, build Chinese machine tool brands, and enhance the competitiveness of the international market. Aiming at competitors and seeking to leap, China's machine tool market is actively active in many powerful foreign competitors, such as Germany Gitemai Group, American Harding Company, Doosan Infracore (China) Co., Ltd. (formerly Daewoo Heavy Industry Yantai Co., Ltd.), Italy Riya Road Machine Tool Group, Switzerland Stuart Machine Tool Company, etc. These companies have advanced management and technology, and they have accelerated their entry into the Chinese market by establishing production bases in China. Among them, the world famous machine tool factory Gentmai Group has set up a factory in Shanghai in 2003. Its main product is DMU200P heavy machining center; the new factory of the famous American Harding Machine Hardinge (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. was also in last year. The company was completed in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. The company is famous for manufacturing high-precision, high-reliability CNC lathes. Its QUESTLMC42 lean manufacturing unit is different from any machine tool. It is a built-in manufacturing unit that can perform various complex processing in 4 independent processing areas. Italy Liya Road Machine Group also builds in Shanghai, mainly producing Special rotary flexible automatic machine tools and flexible rotary units, five-axis horizontal machining centers, precision horizontal machining centers, automatic production lines and special machine tools. Although Chinese machine tools still have a certain distance from international top products, some companies in China that have production and R&D capabilities and are growing fast are targeting these multinational companies as competitors in order to seek new breakthroughs.
