Tool companies should develop high-end products and technologies under the financial crisis

With the continuous development of the manufacturing industry, the tool industry that provides key equipment for the manufacturing industry will develop rapidly and steadily. According to the needs of the development of the manufacturing industry, multi-functional composite tools, intelligent tools, high-speed and high-efficiency tools will become the new darling of the times. For the growing number of difficult-to-machine materials, the tool industry must work hard to improve the original tool materials, develop new tool materials, and find more reasonable tool structures. Today, facing the challenges of the reshuffling and rapid development of China's tool industry and the challenges brought by foreign tool companies in the domestic market to squeeze the market space of domestic enterprises, where should domestic CNC tool companies go? How should we face this opportunity and challenge?

"To strengthen the development of China's CNC cutting tools, the only way out is to implement the central policy without compromise, further deepen reform, expand opening up, improve the market-oriented reform of China's economic system, and let government intervention disappear in corporate behavior, let enterprises Really become the main body of the market." Shen Zhuangxing, secretary general of the Tool Tool Industry Branch of China Machine Tool Industry Association, answered this question. "Only in this way can we solve the problem fundamentally."

Undoubtedly, giving play to the leading role of enterprises in the market economy is of vital importance to the current tool industry. In the development of traditional standard tools to modern high-efficiency tools, tool manufacturers are experiencing a painful and difficult process of change that is renewed and uncertain. This process of change is also a level of tool manufacturing. Division. This is because change is an objective need. A huge modern manufacturing system has rapidly emerged on the land of our country and has become an undisputed reality. Therefore, no matter from the survival space of China's tool industry itself or from the overall needs of China's manufacturing industry to improve competitiveness, it is imperative for tool companies to accelerate structural adjustment and promote the development of modern and efficient tools. There is no way to stop and stick to the rules. Whether this change in concept is prompt and timely will have a decisive impact on the development prospects of enterprises and industries.

In the face of this change, some companies have retreated, and the corporate helm has not chosen to face the difficulties in the face of this situation, but chose to stay in place. After seeing that traditional high-speed steel tools still have a considerable market in China, these enterprises still choose to obtain profits through the production of low-volume low-grade products and low labor costs. The decision-making level of enterprises does not dare or make efforts to improve through technology. Technology investment and other methods to enter the high-end product market, the development of advanced and efficient tools. This is doomed that these companies will not go far and will be eliminated by the market.

Other companies have seen the future trend of tool development, and they are far-sighted, not only paying attention to immediate interests, but also gradually shifting production focus to high-end products market by increasing technology research and development funds, cultivating technical talents, and storing technology. Some private tool companies, although their scale is small, the output value is only tens of millions, but the direction of these companies is very clear - is to do high-end CNC tools. These enterprises will gradually grow stronger in this process of change, and will eventually become an industry giant and become the leader in China's tool industry.

The main factor affecting the development of CNC tools in China today is that some of our companies are not enthusiastic about developing high-end products and technologies in the face of structural adjustment. Why is our company's performance in developing CNC tools is very different from that of developed countries? In the face of the strong demand for CNC tools in the development of modern manufacturing in China, there is no strong desire to open up new fields and occupy new markets. over there? Probably our market-oriented reforms are still not complete, and excessive government intervention and protection have distorted corporate behavior.

We can't force the entire industry to change the status quo in a flash. This is a process full of variables, and it needs to be inclusive in this process. In any case, we should all see the progress of domestic CNC tools. We need to give these companies more opportunities and trust. I believe that in the near future, China's CNC tools will grow rapidly and gradually show their own style.
