Equipment manufacturing industry is the most important tool in our country. It shoulders an important mission in promoting the implementation of Made-in-China 2025 and realizing the transformation of Made-in-China from big to strong. In Made-in-China 2025, intelligent production is the main battlefield of intelligent manufacturing engineering; the transformation of production mode is the main battlefield of service-oriented action plan of manufacturing industry, while intelligent equipment is the main battlefield of high-end equipment innovation engineering.

Intelligent equipment to strengthen industrial basic capacity shoulders important mission

Made in China 2025 should seize the development and production of intelligent equipment and products, speed up the development and industrialization of intelligent products such as wearable products, intelligent household appliances and service robots, and vigorously promote the intellectualization of manufacturing process through intelligent manufacturing equipment such as high-grade digital machine tools, industrial robots and intelligent production of building materials.

It is self-evident that the development of smart manufacturing is of great importance to China's manufacturing industry and even to China's economy. As a professional media in the field of deep cultivation of manufacturing industry, advanced manufacturing industry has long paid attention to the development of smart manufacturing, helped the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry, and strived to do so; China's manufacturing 2025 promoter. All media in advanced manufacturing industry have launched the topic of intelligent manufacturing, trying to analyze the development of Intelligent Manufacturing in depth from the aspects of intelligent manufacturing industry chain, intelligent factory, intelligent equipment, intelligent products, intelligent services, industrial transformation mode and industrial cluster development, in order to outline the whole picture of intelligent manufacturing.

The third issue of Intelligent Manufacturing: Intelligent Equipment - Strengthening Industrial Basic Capability, mainly from the overall development of intelligent equipment and the application of key industries to analyze the development of equipment manufacturing.

Equipment manufacturing industry is the most important tool and the cornerstone of manufacturing industry. It shoulders an important mission in promoting the implementation of Made-in-China 2025 and realizing the transformation of Made-in-China from big to strong. In Made-in-China 2025, intelligent production is the main battlefield of intelligent manufacturing engineering; the transformation of production mode is the main battlefield of service-oriented action plan of manufacturing industry, while intelligent equipment is the main battlefield of high-end equipment innovation engineering. With the intensive introduction of policies in the field of intelligent manufacturing, it is a general trend for China's manufacturing industry to transform to the direction of intelligent manufacturing. It has actively embraced intelligent manufacturing, and began to apply cloud computing, big data, robotics and other related technologies in a large number of ways.

I. Overall Structure of Intelligent Equipment Industry

'Intelligent Manufacturing Equipment Industry; Twelfth Five-Year Development Plan' defines intelligent manufacturing equipment as a general term of all kinds of manufacturing equipment with the functions of perception, decision-making and execution. It is the integration and deep integration of advanced manufacturing technology, information technology and intelligent technology. Intelligent manufacturing equipment mainly includes intelligent control system, automatic complete production line, intelligent instruments, high-grade CNC machine tools, industrial robots and so on.

The core competence of intelligent manufacturing equipment industry is mainly embodied in four fields: key locomotive parts, intelligent instrument and control system, numerical control machine tools and basic manufacturing equipment, intelligent special equipment and so on.

Our country focuses on promoting the development of high-grade CNC machine tools and basic manufacturing equipment, automated complete production lines, intelligent control systems, precision and intelligent instruments and test equipment, key basic components, components and general components, and intelligent special equipment, so as to realize the automation, intelligence, precision and greening of production process, and promote the overall technical level of industry.

II. Overview of the Development of Intelligent Equipment Industry

Overall, China's high-end equipment manufacturing industry has begun to take shape. In addition to making great achievements in aviation, shipbuilding, automobile, rail transit and other fields, it has gradually formed a number of manufacturing core areas centered on Beijing, Tianjin, Shandong, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Shenzhen, Changsha, Wuhan, Xi'an, Chengdu and Chongqing. However, compared with developed countries, there is still a gap in the technology level of intelligent equipment manufacturing industry in China, especially in the key components such as servo motor, precision reducer, robot controller and other aspects of the core technology accumulation and independent production capacity is weak. The key parts industry is controlled by foreign manufacturers, which makes the price of parts remain high, improves the production cost of domestic automation unit products and automation equipment, and weakens the comprehensive competitiveness of domestic manufacturers.

In recent years, China has issued a series of documents and measures aimed at promoting the development of intelligent manufacturing, creating a relaxed and good policy environment for the development of intelligent manufacturing and the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing industry. According to the Intelligent Manufacturing Development Plan issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, more than 60 kinds of key technology equipment for intelligent manufacturing will be developed by 2020, reaching the international level of similar products, and the domestic market satisfaction rate will exceed 50%. The Industrial Support Policies such as 'Guidelines for the Implementation of Intelligent Manufacturing Engineering' have been promulgated one after another to promote the accelerated development of the industry.

According to the competition pattern of enterprises in the intelligent equipment industry, the enterprises listed in the 'Top 100 of China's Equipment Manufacturing Industry' in 2017 tend to be stable and good as a whole. Rail transit equipment, additional material manufacturing and general aviation will become new growth highlights. The automotive industry will maintain steady growth, machinery industry will continue to differentiate, the shipbuilding industry will gradually improve, intelligent manufacturing will accelerate development, and high-end equipment will innovate and develop. Overall, in 2017, China's equipment manufacturing industry added value growth rate of about 7%, profitability compared with the previous year has improved comprehensively, but in terms of operating income profit margin, per capita net profit are at a disadvantage, and there is a big gap with the overall level.
