China will continue to promote the development of smart equipment industry

In the future, industrial production will be a highly automated and even intelligent production mode. During the course of industrial development in 2013, China will continue to promote the development of smart equipment industry.

The current development trend of industrial production is to be more and more automated and to reduce labor links in order to achieve a highly automated and even intelligent production model. The realization of this advanced production model requires increased R&D investment in equipment manufacturing. The Chinese government has also formulated a plan for the development of smart equipment and is continuing to advance.

With the rapid development of information technology and advanced manufacturing technology, the depth and breadth of the development of intelligent manufacturing equipment in China is increasing. The intelligent manufacturing equipment industry system represented by new sensors, intelligent control systems, industrial robots, and automated complete sets of production lines has taken shape. A batch of major intelligent manufacturing equipment with intellectual property rights achieved breakthroughs. In 2010, the sales revenue of industrial intelligent control equipment and instrumentation, CNC machine tools, industrial robots, and their systems, and other intelligent manufacturing equipment industries exceeded 300 billion yuan. However, as an emerging industry that is nurturing and growing, there are still outstanding problems in China's smart manufacturing equipment industry, mainly manifested in: weak technological innovation capabilities, new technologies such as sensing, advanced control and other core technologies are restricted by people; small industrial scale, small industrial organization structure , scattered, weak, lack of backbone enterprises with international competitiveness; weak industrial foundation, high-end and special sensors, intelligent instrumentation, automatic control systems, high-end CNC systems, robot market share of less than 5%.

During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, the transformation and upgrading of key national economic industries, the cultivation and expansion of strategic emerging industries, and the constraint of energy and resource environment have imposed higher requirements on the smart manufacturing equipment industry and provided a huge market space. In the next 5-10 years, China's intelligent manufacturing equipment industry will usher in an important period of strategic opportunities for development.

This year, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology have jointly issued the "Notice on Organizing and Implementing the 2013 Smart Manufacturing Equipment Development Special Project" in recent days, requesting the continued organization and implementation of special projects for the development of intelligent manufacturing equipment, and focusing on supporting the development of digital workshops and intelligent measurement and control systems and equipment. Applications and demonstration applications of intelligent manufacturing systems in typical areas.
