At present, machine tools are continuously applied to various fields, which has accelerated the development of various industries, and has also brought great convenience to people's lives and brought many benefits to enterprises. The future of high-end CNC machine tools in the domestic market has broad prospects.

In the CNC machine tool industry, informatization and networking are an inevitable trend and the basis of intelligence. In recent years, with the development of network technology and the development of sensor technology, machine tools have been increasingly used for mass production. Its management, output, output value, scheduling, etc. can be linked to automation technology, so that it can be fully realized. Full digitization, error control, data compensation, network diagnosis and other functions.

It is understood that the CNC machine tool industry is a high-tech industry. Its characteristics are high technical requirements, fast product replacement, large investment density, and strong product comprehensiveness. Each functional component is critical to the quality and performance of the entire machine. Product market capacity is small, competitors are strong. This places high demands on the government's support and coordination and the effective and flexible operation of enterprises. The basic policy direction is to better combine the three aspects of national policy orientation, improvement of industry structure and flexible and efficient enterprise mechanism.

NC machine tools are necessary equipment for industrial manufacturing now, and one of the necessary equipments. At the same time of mechanical manufacturing, the purpose of using NC machine tools is to greatly increase the scope of use, and to promote industrial production to a certain extent, improve Efficiency of work. Since the technology development of CNC machine tools in our country has reached a mature stage, various fields have begun to pay more attention to CNC machine tools. At present, China's machine tool casting industry is in a period of rapid development, and the industry is changing from quantitative change to qualitative change. This period is also a period from the big to the strong in the machine tool casting industry, which has more development significance.

At present, CNC machine tools produced in China can be roughly divided into three types: economic machine tools, popular machine tools, and high-end machine tools. Economical machine tools are basically open-loop control; popular machine tools use semi-closed-loop control technology with a resolution of 1 micron; high-end machine tools use closed-loop control with high precision, high speed, compounding, and various compensation functions New control function and automatic diagnosis, the resolution can reach 0.1 micron, and the computer can program for people.

According to the forecast report of the development prospect of China's CNC machine tool industry, it is understood that the economical CNC machine tools used in China are basically domestic products, and domestic products can meet the needs of most machine tool users in terms of quality and reliability. About 60% ~ 70% of the domestic popular CNC machine tools are domestic products, but it should be noted that about 80% of the CNC systems of these domestic CNC machine tools are using foreign products. Domestic products can only account for about 2% of high-end machine tools, which are basically imported. In terms of market demand, low-end and mid-range machine tools account for approximately 50% and 40%, respectively, and demand for high-end CNC machine tools is approximately 10%.

Industrial automation is the basis for achieving "Industry 4.0", and the most representative indicator of industrial automation is the popularity of robots. At present, there are only 21 units per 10,000 people in China. Compared with developed countries such as Japan and South Korea, the difference is huge, and Compared with the global average of 55 units / 10,000 people, there is also a large gap. Therefore, accelerating the development of industrial automation is the top priority of China's processing and manufacturing industry.

The numerical control rate of machine tool output and output value in China increased from 11% and 27% in 2004 to 34.6% and 54.7% in 2013. At present, the average level of numerical control rate of CNC machine tool output in developed countries is above 65%, and the numerical value rate of output value At about 80%, the development of China's CNC machine tools still has great potential. It is estimated that by 2020, the equipment rate of high-end CNC machine tools will reach 80%. At present, the number of medium-to-high-end CNC machine tools consumed in China each year is about 50,000 to 60,000 sets, and the amount is about 6 billion yuan, of which imports account for about 85% of the total. In the future, China's CNC machine tool industry has good development potential, and there is a large space for import substitution.

In recent years, China's manufacturing and processing industry has developed by leaps and bounds. With the support of a huge demographic dividend, China became the world's largest trader of goods in 2013 and won the title of "World Factory". However, with the gradual disappearance of the demographic dividend, China's manufacturing and processing industry has also fallen into a transition dilemma; at the same time, developed countries such as the United States and Germany have successively introduced various support and stimulus policies to develop their own manufacturing industries. There is an urgent need to seek change to maintain the advantages of China's manufacturing and processing industry in the future. At this time, the birth of the concept of "Industry 4.0" precisely pointed out the direction for China's manufacturing and processing industry.
