In recent years, the annual growth rate of China's plastic machinery industry is around 30%, which is one of the fastest growing industries in China's machinery industry. However, according to incomplete estimates, not domestic machine exports, billion market still has a gap year Chinese presses. Is the lack of Chinese presses yield? In fact, it is an indisputable fact that a large number of low - precision small injection molding machines, extruders, and blow molding machines have hit the price war because of the difficulty of selling. So, why is there a market gap of billions of dollars? According to the experts, the core problem is technology.

According to statistics, every year tens of thousands of sets of imported China presses, imported precision machine equipment price is several times or even ten times higher than domestic goods. Because domestic presses in efficiency, precision, stability and other aspects can hardly and imported Japan, Europe and other products to compete, large-scale, high-speed, precision, professional equipment for almost all imported goods occupied. At the same time, because of the market and other factors, in 2005 Chinese plastic production of negative growth, down 5.39% over the previous year.

This shows that foreign advanced machine manufacturers have a distinct competitive advantage in technology, and the lack of technology is seriously affecting the development of Chinese machinery industry. In China some plastic products, imported equipment to occupy the dominant position, such as Chinese heat-resistant PET bottle production equipment, CD production equipment, high-end cars plastic covering pieces of equipment, precision electronic components and production equipment for precision ceramic components ceramic injection molding machine and production of neodymium boron magnetic electronic components such as injection molding machine, almost all imports of equipment. In addition, the production equipment of high grade film or special engineering plastic products is also the world of import production line.

Industry experts predict that the future China machine market, high-tech, energy saving, environmental protection, large, full electronic, composite and specialization will have better prospects, high-end brands will have been widely recognized in the market. Some domestic companies have also tasted the sweetness of improving technology.

Fuzhou General Plastics Factory Marketing Department Mr. Yang believes that last year due to the high prices of raw materials and plastic processing industry overall growth decline, thereby reducing the demand for plastic, but the company's sales volume is still steadily, the company is relying on high-tech products. Energy saving, low consumption, precision, automation, high value-added plastic has become the choice for users to upgrade as soon as possible, technological transformation of existing products, technology to machine production enterprises, to resist the market may encounter unexpected presses.

The number of Chinese presses import growing at the same time, the domestic machinery exports continued to improve in. According to Quanzhou inspection and Quarantine Bureau a staff, 2005 is the fastest growing export of domestic injection molding machine of the year, some manufacturers of export volume accounted for 20%-30% of the total production, but the export value of less than 10% of total imports, and exports most of its products are Chinese into developing countries. Of course, these developing countries in their low-end injection industry also need a cost-effective manufacturing tool like China. However, with the development of injection molding machine industry in China or surrounding areas, China's export advantage will soon disappear. Therefore, Chinese plastic machine industry is to use technology to improve product quality.
