In the first half of 2010, China's machine tool industry exports totaled US$3.11 billion. Although it was significantly higher than that in 2009, it still decreased by 7.1% compared with the same period in 2008. The investment boom driven by the domestic economic stimulus plan has led to a significant increase in the import of machine tools. The import volume in the first half of 2010 increased by 12.7% compared with the same period of 2008. The import of cutting tools increased especially rapidly, reaching 530 million US dollars in the first half of the year, up 138.0 year-on-year. %. It should be noted that China's exports are cheap medium and low-end machine tools, while imports are expensive CNC and precision machine tools.
From January to August 2010, the Chinese government persisted in implementing a package plan to deal with the impact of the international financial crisis, targetedly strengthening and improving macroeconomic regulation and control, actively promoting the transformation of economic development mode and structural adjustment, and the growth rate of production and sales of the machine tool industry remained at two. The number of industries increased rapidly. From January to August, the total industrial output value increased by 42.2% year-on-year. The product sales revenue increased by 44.1% year-on-year. Import and export increased significantly compared with the same period of 2009. The export has not recovered to the same level in 2008.
In September 2010, China's CNC machine tool production growth rate showed a slight decline, with a year-on-year growth rate of 73%, lower than the 82% level in August. From the absolute value of production, the output of CNC machine tools reached 21,900 units in August, up from 20,700 units in August, an increase from the previous month.
In the first ten months of 2010, the import of metal processing machine tools in China showed a clear growth trend. The cumulative import volume increased by nearly 70%, and the import volume increased by nearly 50%. However, the average import price of metalworking machine tools decreased by 10% year-on-year. In October, the import volume of metal processing machine tools declined, but the import unit price increased significantly, indicating that the demand for high-end equipment in the industry is still relatively strong.
From the above data, China's machine tool output in June reached 20,300 units, higher than the 171,000 units in May, and the monthly output of CNC machine tools reached an all-time high. Therefore, it is difficult to sustain high-speed growth in the case of a large base. In addition, as the downstream industries such as automobiles and construction machinery are the main driving force for the development of the machine tool industry, since the growth rate of these industries is still very high in 2009, after entering 2010, due to the impact of the base benefits, the growth rate will appear to a certain extent. The decline, but still maintaining positive growth, has led to the continuous expansion of the total number of automobiles and construction machinery, which has played an important role in promoting the continuous improvement of the machine tool industry.
In recent years, China's machine tool market has expanded rapidly, and domestic high-end tools and parts are difficult to meet the requirements. Although the Chinese functional component industry is also developing at a faster rate, it is still lagging behind the number and growth rate of functional component imports and the speed of development of metalworking machines in China. At present, the impact of this large-scale import situation on the still-developing domestic functional component enterprises is obvious, and even restricts its survival and development.
Facing the complicated and ever-changing situation outside China, the current unreasonable structure of the machine tool industry and the lack of product competitiveness have become the biggest obstacles hindering the healthy development in the future. According to the statistics of key enterprises, the orders for some heavy-duty machine tools have started to decline since the first quarter, and the market demand growth has slowed down in the second half of the year. In terms of product mix adjustment, the pace of the first half of this year has obviously slowed down, which is related to the cumulative burst effect of investment triggered by the economic upturn. However, we must be soberly aware that the phenomenon of high demand for certain low-end products is temporary, the accumulated investment energy of the market has been basically released, and the rational demand has gradually returned, and structural adjustment will still be placed first.
In 2011, the whole industry of machine tools must highlight strategic priorities, clarify the main direction, further accelerate structural adjustment and transform development methods, and create conditions and environment for the healthy and sustainable development of the industry.
There are five general body styles of ball Valves: single body, three-piece body, split body, top entry, and welded. The difference is based on how the pieces of the valve-especially the casing that contains the ball itself-are manufactured and assembled. The valve operation is the same in each case.
In addition, there are different styles related to the bore of the ball mechanism itself.
Ball valves in sizes up to 2 inch generally come in single piece, two or three piece designs. One piece ball valves are almost always reduced bore, are relatively inexpensive and generally are throw-away. Two piece ball valves are generally slightly reduced (or standard) bore, they can be either throw-away or repairable. The 3 piece design allows for the center part of the valve containing the ball, stem & seats to be easily removed from the pipeline. This facilitates efficient cleaning of deposited sediments, replacement of seats and gland packings, polishing out of small scratches on the ball, all this without removing the pipes from the valve body. The design concept of a three piece valve is for it to be repairable.
