China's instrumentation industry market competition pattern change

China's instrumentation industry started relatively late, but in the past 20 years of unremitting efforts, has achieved rapid development, has become a major producer of commonly used instrumentation, the market share has repeatedly hit new highs, R & D and production systems are also increasingly sound. Through the first decade of this century, looking forward to 2011, the market competition pattern is quietly changing.

Competition in the domestic and foreign markets has entered a hot spot. According to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the instrumentation industry achieved total industrial output value of 808.5 billion yuan in 2010, sales revenue of 798.5 billion yuan, and profit of 99 billion yuan; import and export volume of 60 billion US dollars, of which imports 34.8 billion US dollars, exports 252 One hundred million U.S. dollars. From the data, we can see that the total sales volume in the domestic market has reached nearly 400 billion yuan, accounting for half of the proportion. In the process of relying on import and export all the year round, domestic companies have developed a set of research and development, production, sales as one of the forming industry chain The system, in addition to adhering to independent innovation, has also accelerated the adjustment of product structure and competed with foreign companies in monopolistic markets. The total number of enterprises increased to 7,154, of which state-owned and state-owned shares accounted for 0.07%, and private enterprises accounted for 69.9. %, foreign-funded enterprises accounted for 20.2%, other companies accounted for 9.83%. With more social capital entering the instrument industry, the market competitiveness has been greatly improved and the battle has become increasingly fierce.

At present, the output of transmitters, actuators, surveying and mapping instruments, and metal material testing machines ranks among the highest in the world. The market share of medium-to-high-end products, such as experimental analysis instruments, is constantly rising. The overall international technical level of the industry has reached a medium level. The product is close to or reaches the current higher international level.

Policy-oriented market structure As energy saving, emission reduction and low-carbon economy become the country's long-term national policy, a number of high-speed development of new industries have emerged. For example, wind power, nuclear power, smart grid, high-speed trains and rail transit, these industries are a huge market growth point for instrumentation. In the field of wind power, the country will strive to form several tens of millions of kilowatts of wind power bases in accordance with the requirements of “integrating into large power grids and building large bases,” and the total installed capacity of wind power will reach 3,000 from the originally planned 2020 level. Millions of kilowatts have been upgraded to 100 million kilowatts today. The policy adjustments in these areas will reduce the traditional market demand in some instrumentation and meter industries, reminding all parties of the market's re-cognition and positioning.

In recent years, the country has proposed the "integration of the two countries". This is an important measure for the upgrading of China's equipment manufacturing industry, and is also an important way for China to develop from an equipment manufacturing country to a manufacturing powerhouse. The information needed in the "convergence of the two systems" comes from the equipment at the bottom, so there is a great demand for equipment automation and automation of the production line. Among the top ten revitalization plans issued by the state, textiles, light industry, steel, and ships all mentioned the requirements for automation and intelligence. As a knowledge-intensive and technology-intensive industry, instrumentation is a multidisciplinary complex and an indispensable part of high-end manufacturing equipment.

People's livelihood issues are worth paying attention. On the other hand, as the country's concern for people's livelihood has greatly increased, some needs related to people's livelihood have also been mentioned on the agenda. For example, the requirements for instruments and meters related to food safety, drug safety, detection and alarm of accidents, and environmental and climate monitoring are continuously emerging. It can be said that grasping a problem can win a market in fierce competition. It is necessary for instrument companies to strengthen their awareness of the people's livelihood and constantly tap the market potential in close proximity so that high-tech instruments can truly benefit society.

Instrumentation is one of the core technologies of modern industry. High-tech is not only the main feature of modern instrumentation, but also the only way to revitalize the instrument industry, and it is also the mainstream of the development of analytical instruments and their industries in the new century. For the application field, especially the further development of non-traditional application areas, it is bound to break the original competitive landscape of the instrument market and inject new vigor and new impetus into the continuous development of the instrumentation industry.
