Metal Valve Industry Restructuring Needs Policy Guidance

In recent years, energy conservation has become the principle and goal of industrial development. From the aspect of energy conservation, the development of steam traps is a general trend, and it has been developed to subcritical and supercritical high parameters to meet the demand for the development of low energy consumption of pharmaceutical machinery and equipment. In the future, the valve industry will develop in two major directions. First, it will develop from a single species to multiple varieties and multiple specifications; second, it will develop in the direction of energy conservation. In order to meet the needs of a complete set of manufacturing projects, an enterprise needs to manufacture the valves needed for the project, which determines that all the valve manufacturers will provide more and more trends.

The development of the hardware valve industry has gone through decades of time. From the initial extensive development to the current development of diversification and diversification, hardware valves have their own unique and innovative development path.

At present, China's valve manufacturing industry has been able to provide users with about twelve categories, more than 3,000 models, more than 4,000 specifications of the product, its performance parameters range from vacuum valves to 600Mpa ultra-high pressure valves, the temperature from cryogenic -196 Celsius to high temperature 570 degrees Celsius. The main products of China's valves have basically met the needs of the domestic market. The rate of complete sets, complete sets, and complete sets of capabilities of the valve market have been greatly improved. Domestic valves have already had a certain foundation for revitalization.

With the acceleration of the pace of reorganization of the valve industry, the future industry will be a product of technological innovation, product quality and safety and product brand competition, the product will be high-tech, high-parameter, corrosion-resistant, high life direction. According to Luo Baihui, Secretary-General of the International Die & Metal & Plastics Industry Suppliers Association, the supply of hardware valves in the future will evolve from a single product to a variety of products and specifications to meet the needs of a complete set of manufacturing projects. The valve required for a company's manufacturing project consists of a valve. Manufacturers are offering more and more trends. Secondly, the other side of energy development is energy conservation. Therefore, from the aspect of energy conservation, we must develop steam traps, and develop high-level parameters that are subcritical and supercritical to meet the needs of the development of low energy consumption of pharmaceutical machinery and equipment.

The valve is an important fluid control device in the industry. It involves many departments of the national economy and is an important basic equipment for the development of the national economy. In recent years, China's valve industry has developed rapidly. After decades of development, China's valve industry has made great progress. At present, the number of valve companies in China ranks first in the world. The level of valve production has been greatly improved, and the output of valves has increased substantially.

China's valve industry has achieved considerable development. Valve market prices have also been relatively stable. The valve industry's market outlook has been widely optimistic. However, with the gradual recovery of the world economy after experiencing the financial crisis, the international competition of the valve industry is becoming increasingly fierce. In terms of high-end technology, there is still a big gap between China's valve manufacturers and foreign large valve manufacturers, and product technology innovation and promotion have become a major stumbling block to the rapid development of China's valve products.

Although the development of the valve industry has been relatively stable for a long time, its competition is still not standardized. The main problems are as follows: First, some operators purchase valves for the manufacturer's name and address, or print well-known manufacturers' brand names and certificates, misleading consumers. The reputation of qualified valve companies is seriously jeopardized. Second, some of the operators had to make second sales after refurbishing and repainting the used valves, which brought serious safety risks to the project quality and severely disturbed the market order of the valves.

Since last year, the localization of high-end valves has become very difficult. The current basic parts have become a shortcoming that restricts the development of domestic manufacturing to high-end development. During the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, China will further increase the localization of high-end equipment components.

China's valve industry is developing rapidly, but in the context of a good industrial situation, some issues are also worth worrying about, especially the domestic valve companies are mainly low-level, small-scale, family workshop-based enterprises. This is a big limitation and bottleneck for the future development of China's valve industry.

At present, some enterprises that produce valves in China have reached the international advanced level. Although the overall level of China's valve industry has been greatly improved, but the quality is still not stable enough, such as run, run, drip, leakage phenomenon often occurs in domestic valves. In addition, there is still a certain gap between China's valve supporting capabilities and developed countries.

“The competition in the valve market has become increasingly intense, and some ordinary valve product markets have become saturated and there is a situation where supply exceeds demand. This makes it increasingly difficult for small and medium-sized enterprises to develop. Even the products with relatively high technological content compete in the international market. It is also very fierce.” Luo Baihui, secretary-general of the International Mould, Hardware and Plastics Industry Suppliers Association, said that currently China has been able to provide a variety of products in the valve market: heating valves, environmental protection valves, and construction valves. However, in the field of high pressure valves still rely on imports, this is the future of China's valves need to make breakthroughs in the field, in order to truly promote the development of China's valve industry.

Substitution of China's sub-sectors in the feasibility of valve import substitution is very different, high-end valves need more policy guidance and research support, the future of the domestic valve industry presents a good development prospects.
