2025年の中国製造機械産業の新しい機会と将来の傾向
With the continuous development of the economy, China's foundry machinery industry has ushered in a new round of transformation and upgrading. According to the analysis report of Huajing Industry Research Institute, the foundry industry is currently divided into several categories, including sand casting, precision casting and die casting. Each process has its own characteristics and can meet the needs of different materials, shapes and production scales, which has promoted the diversified development of casting technology.
Among the many casting processes, sand casting still occupies a dominant position, and the global output of sand casting castings exceeds 80%. The core of this process lies in its flexibility. Through the precise control of sand cores and sand molds, it can adapt to various situations from small batches to large-scale production, and is widely used in industries such as automobiles, engineering machinery and general machinery.
Specifically, the processes of sand casting include modeling, core making, smelting and pouring, sand treatment and casting cleaning. In particular, the efficiency of core making equipment will directly affect the quality and precision of castings, which is also the key point of technology improvement in the current industry.
In recent years, under the guidance of national policies, China's foundry machinery industry is developing in the direction of green, intelligent and high-end. Especially during the 13th Five-Year Plan and the 14th Five-Year Plan, the foundry industry is required to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction, as well as automation and intelligence of production. Upstream foundry machinery and equipment manufacturers will benefit from this trend, and related companies with cutting-edge research and development capabilities will stand out in the market.
Statistics show that in recent years, China's casting industry has maintained overall growth, with casting output reaching 54.05 million tons in 2021. Although affected by factors such as the epidemic, the gradual recovery of downstream demand, especially in the automotive and machinery industries, has promoted the recovery of the foundry industry. Considering my country's huge casting output and the steady development of the macro economy, the market potential in this field should not be underestimated.
Future development trends are also constantly unfolding. According to the "China Foundry Machinery Industry Market Development Monitoring and Investment Potential Forecast Report 2024-2030" by the China Economic Industry Research Institute, the industry will enter a new round of market demand surge. The application of new materials and new technologies will bring disruptive changes to traditional casting processes in the foreseeable future, especially the penetration of AI technology has brought unprecedented opportunities to the industry. Through intelligent analysis and data-driven casting process optimization, companies will be able to achieve more efficient production methods and lower energy consumption and emissions.
Overall, China's foundry machinery industry is in a stage of positive change, market concentration is expected to further increase, and the competitive landscape in the industry will continue to evolve. In this context, while facing opportunities, companies must also be alert to possible risks and challenges: including the improvement of process levels, environmental governance requirements, and talent training issues that require continuous attention and response. Through continuous innovation and cooperation, the future of the foundry industry will undoubtedly become brighter.
