Equipment manufacturing industry is a strategic industry supported by the country. It has the characteristics of high industrial relevance, strong ability to absorb employment, and technology-intensive industries. It is an important component of China's core competitiveness and an important guarantee for industrial upgrading, technological progress, national security, and economic security. At present, in response to the challenges posed by the international financial crisis, how to promote China's equipment manufacturing industry to a new level is an important and urgent task for us.
First, equipment manufacturing industry is a key industry in the process of industrialization
Since the reform and opening up, China's industrial economy has developed rapidly and the industrial structure has undergone profound changes, achieving a historic leap from the early to the middle period of industrialization. Since entering the new century, the status of our country's industry in the world's industries has continued to rise and "Made in China" has become an important force in the world market.
Equipment manufacturing industry plays an important supporting role in promoting China's industrial development. Since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, China's equipment manufacturing industry has made remarkable achievements and formed a relatively complete industrial system. In 2008, excluding the manufacturing of communications equipment, computers and other electronic equipment, the machinery and equipment industry achieved a total industrial output value of 92,618.62 million yuan and an industrial sales output value of 9,025.8 billion yuan, both ranking first in China's 12 major industrial categories. The import and export of electromechanical products with equipment manufacturing as the main body accounted for more than 40% of the total import and export volume of the country, and equipment manufacturing industry employees accounted for more than 20% of all industrial employees. Nowadays, the total scale of China's equipment manufacturing industry ranks second in the world and ranks among the largest countries in the world in equipment manufacturing.
The equipment manufacturing industry is not only the basic industry of the national economy, but it has also been the strategic commanding heights for all countries in the world. Although the developed countries have completed industrialization, the manufacturing industry is still the core competition area, and the competition of various countries in the manufacturing industry is more manifested in the field of equipment technology and equipment industry. The world's equipment manufacturing powers, such as the United States, Japan, and Germany, are both industrial powers and economic powerhouses. Their rise and takeoff are almost all based on the solid foundation laid by the equipment manufacturing industry. Some small countries or new industrialized countries, they are able to enter the ranks of developed countries, an important aspect is that because of some of the world's leading level in the field of equipment manufacturing, such as Swiss precision machine tools and instrumentation manufacturing, Sweden's bearings Manufacturing, manufacturing of Korean ships and electronic equipment.
At present, China is in a critical period of industrialization. Accelerating the development of the equipment manufacturing industry, especially upgrading the level of major technology and equipment, is of great significance and the task is urgent. The decisive factor in achieving new industrialization is to accelerate technological progress, and its material basis is to develop advanced technology and equipment. The improvement of the efficiency of the entire national economy requires advanced equipment manufacturing to lead. The adjustment and upgrading of industrial structure require advanced equipment manufacturing to support. The energy saving and consumption reduction of enterprises requires advanced equipment manufacturing to ensure. It can be said that the key to the realization of industrialization with Chinese characteristics lies in the development and revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry. Therefore, we must truly regard the equipment manufacturing industry as a key industry in the process of industrialization and give priority to supporting and vigorously developing.
Second, China's equipment manufacturing industry is facing severe challenges and major strategic opportunities
In recent years, with the central government’s high priority, the development of China’s equipment manufacturing industry has been accelerating, the level of major technological equipment autonomy has significantly increased, and the pillar industries of equipment manufacturing have become even more prominent. A number of key products have reached the international advanced level, and a number of equipment manufacturing Companies have emerged in the international arena, a number of industrial clusters are accelerating the formation of some of the product technology and market share has leapt to the forefront of the world. However, compared with advanced countries, China's equipment manufacturing industry still has a small gap. In the various areas of the national economy, the domestic market for domestically produced equipment in China has achieved a rate of less than 60%, and this ratio is even lower in major technological equipment. At present, most high-end manufacturing equipment and technologies such as high-end CNC machine tools and automated production lines rely on imports. In particular, high-tech equipment and micro-processing equipment almost all rely on imports. Related accessory products with high technological content in equipment also depend heavily on foreign supplies. It has become the main "bottleneck" in the transformation and upgrading of China's equipment industry.
China is a large developing country. The equipment manufacturing industry does not revitalize, and high-end manufacturing equipment and technology are subject to human control. With a large scale of manufacturing industry, it is also difficult to enter the ranks of manufacturing powerhouses. Since the second half of 2008, with the deepening of the international financial crisis, the domestic and foreign markets for equipment manufacturing industry in China have shrunk. The high-speed growth that has continued for many years has slowed down significantly. Some companies have encountered difficulties in their production and operations, and economic efficiency has declined. Some companies have even fallen into business. Development difficulties. But overall, under the impact and influence of the international financial crisis, the international and domestic macroeconomic situation is undergoing profound changes. The new round of adjustment of the world economic structure is accelerating, which poses a severe challenge to the development of China's equipment manufacturing industry. At the same time, it also brought new opportunities for development. We must be good at seeing opportunities from the crisis. We must not only fully estimate the severity of the challenges, but also firmly grasp the joints that turn crisis into opportunities, so as to strengthen our confidence in revitalizing the equipment manufacturing industry, and courageously restricting China’s progress toward the manufacturing industry. Strong country's difficulties.
First of all, China's equipment manufacturing industry is in a period of great development. The 17th National Party Congress emphasized that it is necessary to vigorously promote the integration of information technology and industrialization, promote the development of industries from the big to the strong, and revitalize the equipment manufacturing industry. It must be noted that China is in a critical period of expanding domestic demand, accelerating infrastructure construction and industrial transformation and upgrading, and has a huge market demand for advanced equipment. Investment and construction of people’s livelihood projects, infrastructure, ecological environment, and post-disaster reconstruction, especially the implementation of a number of major projects under construction, including iron and steel bases, 1 million tons of ethylene, 1 million tons of potash fertilizer, and phosphate and compound fertilizer bases, and a number of favorable The successive launch of large-scale engineering projects that enhance the potential for development has provided rare opportunities for effectively stimulating the rapid development of China's equipment manufacturing industry.
Second, there is a new domestic and foreign market space for the development of China's equipment manufacturing industry. At present, under the impact of the international financial crisis, equipment manufacturers in western developed countries have to make strategic adjustments and contractions, which provides an opportunity for China's equipment manufacturing industry to expand into the international market. From the domestic point of view, although China has also suffered from the impact of the international financial crisis, the macro-economy remains stable and the economic development is full of vitality. The equipment manufacturing industry is in the period of transformation and upgrading, and development has a broad domestic market as a support. As long as we seize the opportunity, face the difficulties, and persevere, make full use of two resources and two markets, we can realize the revitalization of China's equipment manufacturing industry in the process of opening up the international market.
Third, China's equipment manufacturing industry is facing precious opportunities to integrate and utilize international technology and human resources. For a long time, high-tech products in China's industrial equipment mostly rely on foreign technology. At present, the international financial crisis is still spreading to the global real economy. Some foreign companies that master cutting-edge technologies and core technologies in equipment manufacturing have continued to suffer a greater degree of damage, and the market value has shrunk dramatically. China's equipment manufacturing enterprises must seize the opportunity to actively participate in the adjustment of international industrial structure, and strive to upgrade the equipment manufacturing technology level through various means such as investment and acquisition, technology introduction, and talent introduction, and enter the cutting-edge technologies and core technology fields of equipment manufacturing to further enhance The company's international competitiveness strives to occupy a more proactive position in the international division of labor system.
Third, accelerate the revitalization of China's equipment manufacturing industry
In order to deal with the impact of the international financial crisis, the party and the country have taken a long-term perspective and grasped the current situation and put forward plans for industrial rejuvenation. Among them, the adjustment and revitalization plan for the equipment manufacturing industry occupies a very important position. We must seize this important historical opportunity, rely on the revitalization of other industries, promote large-scale independent technological equipment, and implement the adjustment and revitalization plan for the equipment manufacturing industry in order to fully enhance the international competitiveness of China's industries and enterprises.
Taking technological innovation and technological transformation as breakthroughs, we will comprehensively upgrade the quality and level of the equipment manufacturing industry. In recent years, according to major project construction and the needs of key industries, China has enhanced its independent innovation capabilities through the introduction of localization projects, the introduction and digestion and absorption of foreign advanced technologies. On this basis, it is necessary to combine the national medium- and long-term science and technology planning guidelines, and through the organization and implementation of major special projects, establish a technological innovation system that combines enterprise as the main body, market orientation, and the combination of production, study, and research, and comprehensively enhance the independent innovation of China's equipment manufacturing industry. ability. It is necessary to deepen the reform of the scientific and technological system and earnestly make enterprises become the main body of R&D investment, the main body of technological innovation, and the main body of innovation results market promotion. At the same time, it will accelerate the technological transformation of equipment manufacturing enterprises and promote the connotative development of equipment manufacturing. We must rely on major scientific and technological projects to complete the development of major key equipment such as 80,000-ton die forging presses and super-heavy-duty CNC horizontal boring lathes as soon as possible, drive the transformation and upgrading of the equipment manufacturing industry, and support the long-term development of the national economy.
Relying on key projects and major projects, we will raise the level of localization in an all-round way. Continue to rely on key projects and major projects, break through the core technologies of equipment manufacturing, and promote the localization of equipment. When the state approves or approves key construction projects, it is necessary to arrange a number of major technical equipments to rely on independent projects, and require the project owners and manufacturing departments to jointly formulate detailed equipment implementation plans for independent manufacturing. stand by. It is necessary to organize a large number of major technical equipment localization projects, and to form a manufacturing capacity of millions of kilowatts of nuclear power equipment, complete sets of DC transmission equipment, large-scale petrochemical equipment, large-scale excavation and construction equipment, and high-end CNC machine tools as soon as possible, and strive to break through key The core technology of the pieces. It is necessary to focus on the research and development of key common manufacturing technologies, key raw materials and components needed for major technological equipment, and gradually increase the proportion of autonomous manufacturing of equipment. It is necessary to upgrade the technical level of large-scale castings and forgings, basic components, processing aids, special raw materials and other ancillary products, and consolidate the basis for industrial development.
To speed up the development of information technology as a support, and strive to promote the integration of information technology and equipment manufacturing. In the era of information technology, the market users' demand for large-capacity, high-parameter, and automated equipment is in the ascendant. The equipment manufacturing industry must adapt to the development trend of informatization and insist on integrating information technology into production to make products and equipment digital and intelligent. Only in this way can we increase the technological content and added value of our products and form our core competitiveness. At present, equipment manufacturing companies must seize the favorable opportunity to grasp the laws and trends of industrialization and informatization development, use information technology to transform and upgrade the traditional equipment manufacturing industry, and constantly improve the digitalization, intelligence, information, flexibility, and network of various types of equipment. At the same time, it integrates information technology into R&D, design, production, distribution, management, and human resource development, and strives to upgrade the equipment manufacturing industry and develop the advanced equipment manufacturing industry.
Focusing on promoting M&A and restructuring, optimize the organizational structure of the equipment manufacturing industry. The formation of a large-scale enterprise group with international competitiveness is an important symbol of the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry. Equipment manufacturing enterprises must speed up the establishment of a modern enterprise system, deepen internal reforms, and change operational mechanisms. In the direction of equity diversification, we encourage the joint restructuring of equipment manufacturing companies, affiliated companies, and enterprises and research institutes, and cultivate large-scale enterprise groups through various channels. The key enterprises that have a key role in the manufacturing of major technological equipment must support the reorganization of cross-industry, cross-regional, and cross-ownership systems on the basis of ensuring the country's control and leadership. The role of market orientation and policy support will be brought into play to form a group of cross-industry and cross-regional engineering companies that integrate system design, system integration, project general contracting and full-service services across the country to participate in the construction and management of key national project projects. Corporate management and innovation.
Focusing on the active use of overseas resources and markets, we will take the path of internationalization for equipment manufacturing. Historical experience shows that the international financial crisis will often bring drastic adjustments to the world's industrial structure and competition. We must be good at seizing opportunities from the crisis, do everything possible to stabilize and expand the export of equipment products, increase the technological content, added value, and complete sets of products for export, and strive to enter the high-end equipment industry. We must seize the current favorable opportunity to introduce advanced technologies, equipment, and high-end talents, accelerate the formation of a number of core technologies and major equipment with independent intellectual property rights through the introduction, digestion, absorption, and re-innovation of key technologies to improve China's equipment manufacturing industry. techinque level. At the same time, actively encourage China's powerful equipment manufacturing enterprises to “go globalâ€, merge and restructure foreign companies and R&D institutions, and compete for the commanding heights in the international market competition.
