Analyze the reasons for the rapid development of instrumentation industry

With the continuous development of economy and technology, during the period of the 11th Five-Year Plan period, the instrumentation industry is also showing a constantly changing appearance. Data shows that during the 11th five-year period, China's GDP has grown at an average annual rate of 11.2%, while the instrumentation industry has achieved an annual average of 20% of the ultra-high-speed growth, which really delights instrumentation people. The reasons why the instrumentation industry can develop so rapidly are the following: First, the rapid development of the entire national economy and the deepening integration of the two industries have led to the need for automation in various economic fields. The prosperity of the instrumentation industry has come.

Specifically, the highlights of the implementation of national key projects, food safety and pharmaceutical safety and other issues related to the national economy and people's livelihood have provided instrumentation that plays a vital role in the intelligentization of manufacturing equipment, automation of production processes, and quality supervision and quarantine. opportunity. Second, during the period of the 11th and 5th, the domestic instrumentation technology has significantly improved, resulting in the gradual replacement of some foreign market share by the domestic market, increasing the market share of domestic instrumentation. Third, the demand for instruments and meters in the Chinese market has made many multinational corporations attach great importance to the cake in the Chinese market. More and more foreign companies are starting to set up factories in China. Since the products that need to be imported have been transformed into localized production, the market scale of the instrumentation industry has been expanded to some extent. However, with the continuous deterioration of the international economic environment and the instability of the domestic market environment, such as overcapacity in steel, cement, glass, and other industries, safety risks have emerged in wind power, solar energy, rail transit, and food industries. The instrumentation industry has also begun to show a cooling trend.

During the 12th Five-Year Plan period, how the instrumentation industry will develop will become the focus that industry insiders must pay attention to. The lack of core technologies is worrying about market competition Despite the guidance of the national macro-control policies, China's instrumentation industry has experienced unprecedented rapid development in recent years. However, the lack of core technologies, the high-end products still rely on issues such as foreign imports highlighting, making China's instrumentation The instrument industry is facing a severe test. In a recent exchange, Dong Jingchen, an advisor of the China Instrument and Meter Industry Association, pointed out to reporters: In fact, it has long been seen that the small, scattered and chaotic situation in the instrumentation industry is one of the important reasons that hinder the development of the industry. However, during the period of rapid economic development, there is a large market demand, and products produced by small, scattered, or chaotic companies can also be sold. Therefore, companies do not have the motivation or demand to change this situation. In fact, the disorderly competition in the market economy really needs to buy a part of the status quo for the instrumentation industry. However, due to the fact that the strength of the company is not strong, resulting in a serious shortage of investment in technology research and development and manufacturing processes, resulting in a large gap between domestic products and foreign countries is the more important reason.

In this regard, Mr. Tu Shenghua, manager of instrument and meter maintenance department of Fujian United Petroleum & Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. disclosed to reporters: At present, domestic instrument and meter companies still have a certain gap compared with large foreign companies, especially in terms of product performance. For our petroleum and petrochemical industry, we will pay more attention to the reliability and safety of our products, while foreign technologies can better ensure the stability of our production process. Therefore, we also prefer products and high reliability when selecting partners. Foreign companies. Indeed, Mr. Tu Shenghua’s concerns are also the concern of most users. Up to now, most of the technologies and product R&D in China's instrumentation industry are still in a state of tracking abroad. There are few domestic technologies that can be used with well-known international companies. Therefore, when users choose products, although domestic companies take advantage of price advantage In the market, but in the face of large-scale projects, the lack of technology of domestic companies makes it difficult to avoid passive competition in the face of competition, and the pressure of market competition has doubled.
