Plastic Machine Automation Market Returns to Normal Level

Since the accession to the WTO, China's plastics machinery manufacturers have also made efforts to keep pace with international standards, actively participating in international competition, implementing the "going out" strategy, and meeting the opportunities and challenges of history. In plastic molding machinery, three major types of injection molding machines, extruders, and blow molding machines are also used. The output and output of the three products account for more than 80% of the entire plastics machinery. Among the three major products, injection molding machines are used. It also accounts for more than 50%. In the 21st century, China's plastics machinery industry has become a new force in the machinery industry.

From the perspective of the market performance of the plastics machinery industry in the past four years, the growth rates of major indicators have all reached their peaks in 2010. The main reason for this phenomenon comes from the financial crisis in 2008, which caused the market to operate at a low level in 2009, and then triggered The market was booming in 2010. In 2012, affected by the downturn of the overall OEM industry and the slowdown of the automotive industry, the major economic indicators of the plastics machinery industry experienced a year-on-year decline or even negative growth. According to relevant market research surveys, in 2012, the overall scale of automation in the plastics machinery industry fell by about 6.5%.

Summary The main factors influencing the development of the plastics machinery industry are reflected in: 1. Positive factors and opportunities: With the continuous upgrading of the consumption structure, the growth of the plastics machinery industry will be promoted, especially for the automotive industry, the largest downstream area of ​​the press industry, and light vehicles. Promotion will play an active role in the industry. In addition, the development of energy-saving injection molding machines and all-electric injection molding machines will also become a growth engine for the industry. 2. Negative factors and challenges: Although the independent R&D production capacity of China's plastics machinery industry continues to increase, the asymmetric trade structure of China's imports of high-end presses equipment and exports of low-end equipment has caused the plastics machinery industry to face equipment. The pattern of deficit in import and export trade is hard to change.

According to industry sources, the “mechanical” part of the two core parts of the plastics machinery industry in China and the international level is far from one another. From raw materials to mechanical equipment processing and mechanical design, foreign advanced technologies cannot surpass Chinese companies in the short term. .

In 2013, with the recovery of the overall economy and the direct promotion of industrial upgrading, the automation market of the plastics machinery industry in 2013 will also return to normal growth levels, making it more likely to rank among the international advanced level.
