Guide : CNC machine tools are the necessary equipment for industrial manufacturing today. At the same time of mechanical manufacturing, the purpose of CNC machine tools is to expand the scope of use, and to promote industrial production to a certain extent and improve work efficiency. Countries attach great importance to the CNC machine tool industry and take measures to support and protect them. At present, the world's high-end CNC machine tools are dominated by industrial powers such as the United States, Japan, and Germany. These countries hold the main core technologies.

According to statistics, in the past five years, the average annual compound growth rate of CNC machine tool production in China was 37.39%. Driven by relevant industries, the average annual growth rate of CNC machine tools in China will exceed 10%. By 2015, the national CNC system demand will reach 400,000 sets, and annual sales will reach 850 billion yuan.

In recent years, with the sharp increase in demand for important equipment manufacturing industries such as defense, aviation, high-speed rail, automobiles and molds, China's CNC machine tools have also achieved rapid development.

CNC machine tools are investment products with small market capacity, but they have important strategic significance. Countries attach great importance to the CNC machine tool industry and take measures to support and protect them. At present, the world's high-end CNC machine tools are dominated by industrial powers such as the United States, Japan, and Germany. These countries hold the main core technologies. Emerging markets such as China, India, and Russia have a large demand for CNC machine tools, and most of the imports come from Japan and Germany.

Japan - the largest exporter of CNC machine tools

Since the first CNC machine tool was developed in 1958, the Japanese government has long encouraged planning institutions and companies to develop CNC machine tools through planning and regulations, and to provide sufficient research and development funding. By studying Germany in terms of machine tool components, and learning the United States in the development and research of numerical control technology and numerical control systems, Japan has achieved great results. Since 1978, the output and export volume of CNC machine tools in Japan have been ranked first in the world.

First, more than 90% of Japanese export orders are CNC machine tools.

In the first half of 2013, Japanese machine tool orders totaled 517.26 billion yen, down 18.7% year-on-year. Among them, orders for CNC machine tools decreased by 18.2% year-on-year, accounting for 97.3%. Among foreign orders, CNC machine tool orders accounted for 98.8%, accounting for 92.2% of domestic orders. In the order sales of 522 billion yen, CNC machine tools accounted for 97.3%; in handheld orders, CNC machine tools accounted for 95.4%.

After the financial crisis in 2008, various indicators of CNC machine tools in Japan began to fall sharply; in 2009, orders for CNC machine tools were close to the lowest level. Since 2010, various indexes of CNC machine tools have continued to rise; in 2012, the proportion of CNC machine tool orders in machine tool orders reached 97.5%, the highest level in previous years; the output value of CNC machine tools is close to the level of 2008, accounting for the total output value of machine tools. The ratio is as high as 89.9%, and the output ratio is 87.9%. The export of CNC machine tools has reached a record high, accounting for 93.7% of the total machine tool exports.

Secondly, Japanese CNC machine tools are exported to high-end products. In the first five months of 2013, Japan produced a total of 23,355 machine tools with an output value of 358.31 billion yen; among them, 19,411 CNC machine tools, with an output value of 318.24 billion yen, accounting for 83.1% and 88.8% respectively. Among the machine tool exports, the proportion of CNC machine tools is 58.0%, but the proportion of exports is 92.3%, which indicates that the price of CNC machine tools is higher, and more high-end products are exported.

Finally, Japanese special CNC machine tools are expensive and growing rapidly. From the point of view of the output value and output of the main products of CNC machine tools in 2012, CNC machine tools accounted for the largest proportion, followed by CNC flat rotary discs, CNC grinding machines and special CNC machine tools. In the first half of 2013, the output value and output of these four types of CNC machine tools were 1,229.90 million yen and 8,367 units, 79.40 billion yen and 5,223 units, 32.15 billion yen and 1,314 units, 29.53 billion yen and 794 units respectively. In addition to the 9.4% increase in the output value of CNC machine tools, the first three categories of products all experienced a decline of more than 25%.

From the perspective of the proportion of CNC machine tools, the share of CNC machine tools in CNC machine tools has increased year by year. The output value of the first five months of 2013 reached 38.6%, and the output accounted for 43.1%; the output value of CNC rotary discs accounted for The ratio is 24.9%, the proportion of production is 26.9%; the proportion of CNC grinding machine is basically stable, the current output value accounts for more than 10.0%, the output ratio is 6.8%; the output value of special CNC machine tools increases to 9.3%, and the output ratio is 4.0% is still increasing.

It can be seen from the ratio of output value and output that the price of CNC rotary disc and CNC machining machine is lower than the average price of CNC machine tools, while the price of CNC grinding machine and special CNC machine tool is higher, especially for special CNC machine tools. The export price of CNC machine tools is far lower than the price, indicating that the export is mainly based on the lower-priced CNC rotary table and CNC machine tools. The export of CNC grinding machines, especially special CNC machine tools, is less.

United States - CNC machine tool inventor country

As the inventor of CNC machine tools, the United States is competitive in the design, manufacture and numerical control of CNC machine tools. Although the machine tool technology is still world-class, its output ranks third in the world and is also a major importer of CNC machine tools worldwide. The demand for CNC machine tools in the United States is very high, and the import demand for CNC machine tools has always exceeded that of metal processing machines. In the first five months of 2013, the US exported 1.11 billion US dollars of metal processing machine tools, up 9.5% year-on-year, and imported 2.27 billion US dollars, down 9.5%. The export of CNC machine tools was 470 million US dollars, up 13.0% year-on-year, and imports were 1.56 billion US dollars, down 14.3 year-on-year. %. Exports of other manufacturing technologies increased by 1.0% and imports increased by 5.3%. From the perspective of import growth rate and deficit, the investment in equipment driven by the manufacturing industry began to slow down, and the gap in the US machine tool, especially the CNC machine tool, began to shrink. However, from the perspective of imports, in addition to February, the import of CNC machine tools in the United States in 2013 basically remained above 300 million US dollars, indicating that the demand for CNC machine tools is still very large.

From the monthly situation, since November 2012, the export of CNC machine tools has started to drop from more than 100 million US dollars to 86.4 million US dollars. After three consecutive months of decline, exports began to increase in February 2013, and now there are 3 consecutive. The month remained above $100 million, and imports began to decrease in March.

With the increase of exports, the competitiveness of CNC machine tool trade began to increase in 2013. The trade competitiveness index (TC) index has entered the range of -0.50 from the interval of -0.20 in 2012, and the TC index of CNC machine tools rose to -0.54 in the first five months. It is 0.09 points higher than the same period of the previous year and 0.07 points higher than 2012.
