At present, the comprehensive technical level of product quality, product design, process development, manufacturing equipment and testing in China's speed change gear industry is only equivalent to the level of developed countries in the middle and late 1990s.
Specifically, on the one hand, the overcapacity of middle and low-end products leads to homogeneous and vicious competition. On the other hand, the capacity of high-end products is insufficient. The variable speed gear transmission devices of automobiles, construction machinery, high-speed railways, coal mining machinery and large agricultural machinery are largely dependent on imports, and the import and export deficit is increasing year by year. During the Twelfth Five Year Plan period, China's gear industry is facing the historical development opportunity of adjustment and revitalization, from big to strong. The domestic and international market competition is intensifying, and the domestic deep-seated contradictions will inevitably affect the pace of the industry.
Affected by factors such as the resurgence of trade protectionism, the pressure of RMB appreciation, the increased risk of export exchange rate, and the decline of consumption level in developed countries, the export competition of China's gear products will intensify. By the end of 2013, there were 1057 gear manufacturing enterprises above designated size in China; In 2013, the size of China's gear market reached 166.1 billion yuan, an increase of more than six times over the 25.8 billion yuan in 2005. China is a truly large country in the manufacturing of variable speed gears in the world. At present, the size of the gear market has ranked the third in the world.
Therefore, while maintaining some cost advantages, the variable speed gear industry must rely on new advantages such as technological progress, quality improvement and product cost performance to expand exports. The basic force to promote technological progress, innovation and development of the industry is irreversible. It is expected that the whole industry will achieve stable development at an annual growth rate of about 30% in the process of transformation and upgrading.
Gear reducer boosts the development of equipment manufacturing industry
Gear reducer is an indispensable key component for the equipment manufacturing industry to implement mechanical transmission. The development of the national economy will stimulate the investment in infrastructure, and further promote the development of metallurgy, electric power, construction machinery, building materials, energy and other industries, which promote the expansion of the demand market for gear reducers.
According to the data released by the Prospective Industry Research Institute, in 2011, the sales revenue of the reducer industry in China reached RMB60.023 billion, up 31.54% year on year; The total industrial output value reached 60.972 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 34.40%; The total profit was 5.063 billion yuan, up 27.90% year on year.
Due to the constraints of equipment manufacturing technology, gear reducers in China can only produce medium and low-grade products, and gear reducers used in national major fields and key projects can only rely on imports. In order to change the backward situation that the reducer application in China is restricted by developed countries as soon as possible,; In the Twelfth Five Year Strategic Plan, the effect of national macroeconomic policies will continue to show, domestic economic growth will remain strong, the international market will also recover slowly, and the momentum of economic stabilization and recovery will gradually increase.
At present, the demand for gear reducers is strong, the capacity utilization rate is high, and the profits of major gear reducer manufacturers have improved significantly. With the development of gear reducers, the demand for gear reducers will continue to grow rapidly, with an average annual growth rate of more than 20% in the future.
Analysis of current situation of gear reducer industry Analysis of future development, transformation and upgrading prospects
Downstream application industries of the reducer mainly include various fields of national economy and national defense industry, such as hoisting and transportation, cement and building materials, heavy mining, metallurgy, electric power, aviation and shipbuilding.
Benefiting from the continuous deepening of industrialization and urbanization and the national emphasis on machinery manufacturing, the reducer industry is one of the basic equipment industries in China. At the same time, China's economic development has entered a period of deep adjustment, and the reducer industry has also entered the transformation and upgrading.
Lifting and transportation equipment is the most widely used industry of gear reducer, and the development speed of this industry directly affects the growth rate of reducer market demand. estimate; During the 13th Five Year Plan period, China's hoisting and transportation equipment manufacturing industry will continue to maintain the momentum of rapid growth. Benefiting from this, the demand for reducers will also be effectively boosted.
After a long period of extensive expansion, the iron and steel industry urgently needs to speed up structural adjustment and industrial upgrading. This adjustment has brought challenges and market opportunities to the metallurgical heavy machinery manufacturing industry, especially the high-end equipment manufacturing industry with high-tech content.
The gear reducer is the second kind of general mechanical equipment used in cement machinery, and its market scale will inevitably continue to rise with the strong demand of the cement machinery industry.
After the joint efforts of several generations, the gear reducer industry in China has formed a huge industrial scale. At present, the gear reducer products in China not only meet the needs of the domestic mainstream market, but also are exported to foreign countries, and occupy a certain position in the international market. It can be said that China enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad. China has become a major reducer manufacturer in the world.
