Development Trend Of World Machinery Manufacturing Industry

The world's machinery manufacturing industry covers many fields, including household appliances, auto parts, factory equipment and construction machinery, and its annual output value is as high as 1 trillion US dollars.

4 important trends will have an impact on the future development.

1. technology convergence in many areas of the machinery manufacturing industry, electronic control and software technology become equally important as mechanical engineering.

GmbH, Germany, is the world's largest manufacturer of glass processing systems for large glass factories. At present, the company's software control devices and electronic mechanical devices occupy 1 / 3 of its output value.

2. service thinking is in all fields from elevator to factory equipment. The increase in profits of manufacturers is no longer due to the production of products in fixed directories, but because manufacturers can produce products according to the requirements of users to meet special needs.

In addition, enterprises also increase their output value through maintenance or other "after sales" services.

3. global product development, such as Whirlpool Corp, the largest US household appliance manufacturer, reorganized the global product development team composed of 2000 engineers to develop new products and shorten the development time of some products.

4. updating the production strategy, in a number of industries including printing machinery, the machinery manufacturers borrow the idea of the automobile industry to build different products in different markets on the same basic engineering structure, and then modify the design at the later stage of the manufacturing process, so that the products can meet the needs of specific customer groups.
