Slower growth rate in the four service areas of the machine tool industry

Automotive field. After the rapid growth of automobile production and sales lasted for two years, the growth rate in the first half of the year fell sharply, from rapid growth in the previous year to flat growth, and showed a trend of falling month by month. Among them, the first year of the month in April showed a negative year-on-year growth, negative growth again in May, a slight improvement in June. In the first half of the year, 915.60 million cars and 9.3252 million cars were produced and sold, which was an increase of 2.48% and 3.35% year-on-year, and its sales volume was down by 29% from the previous year.

Construction machinery. In the first half of 2011, the construction machinery market experienced a frenzied first quarter. From April onwards, sales in various sub-sectors showed a significant decline from the previous month. The loader increased by 19.07% year-on-year. In the first quarter, it continued the high growth trend of the previous year. However, the market entered an adjustment period in April. Sales volume for the three consecutive months was almost the same as that of the same period of last year, which dragged down the overall increase in the first half of the year. The excavator increased by 31.98% in the first half of the year. Among them, the sale of 1.0443 million units in June, the chain continued to decline; year-on-year decline of 11.06%, two consecutive months of negative growth.

Power generation equipment. The hydropower and solar photovoltaic markets still maintain a relatively strong momentum of development. However, after the nuclear accident in Fukushima, Japan, nuclear power projects have not been "frozen." Although the market for wind power is developing during the long term, the market prospects are promising. However, in order to solve the problems of heavy-duty construction, heavy-duty, light-quality, light-weight management, and relatively lagging wind power standards in wind power development, the National Energy Administration has issued a special emergency notice. Tightened the approval power of wind power.

Shipbuilding area. From January to June this year, the nationwide shipbuilding completed 30.92 million dwt, an increase of 4.4% year-on-year, and new ship orders were 21.6 million dwt, down 9.2% year-on-year. By the end of June, the number of ship orders in hand reached 18176 million dwt, a decrease of 1.4% over the same period of the previous year. , 7.2% lower than the end of the previous year.

In the above-mentioned areas where the growth has been moderate, the machine tool industry continues to grow at a high rate of 36.4%. What are the reasons?

The industry believes that it does not rule out the inertia of investment in the above-mentioned areas, and still drives the rapid development of the machine tool industry.
