China’s Automobile Industry Situation And Future Trend Of Mold
About 30 more than the number of employees 7,000 people, including the design, manufacture and management of about 1,000 people, accounting for 14% of the total number of workers. The industry about 900 million yuan fixed assets, net of about 700 million yuan, the annual Pin Sales revenue of approximately 4.4 billion, overall labor productivity of about 450 thousand yuan / person, the annual manufacturing capacity of about 12 million hours of work, including large, medium-sized mold manufacturing capacity of about 5 million man-hours / year. In particular, through the “Ninth Five-Year” period of transformation, not only automotive tool industry production capacity and improve product standards and quality improved. For example, car body molds of real-type Casting Technology and the popularization and application of new air-cooled steel, automobile body parts to improve the quality and reduce mold machining has played an active role in the workload.
Present, trucks, light trucks, mini vans molds are basically self-sufficient and able to produce part of the car cover mold. However, the car still has to import most of the mold, mainly interior body panel dies and molds, the amount of 100 million U.S. dollars in imports over.
China Automobile Die recent rapid development of industry, progress is also great, but compared with foreign advanced level, there are still significant gaps. Lies in the following points:
First manufacturing precision difference. To seal, for example, many people reflected poor performance of China’s domestic auto seal. In fact, not only with the sealing material and seal the manufacturing level, and more directly related to mold levels. Currently, foreign automakers are in the implementation of “2 mm” project, but in China, the single parts can also be done with hundreds of parts to the assembly not guaranteed, the key is to die.
Second, short die life. Only aluminum die-casting mold, for example, has reached advanced level in more than one million, but only 20 million in China, only foreign level 1 / 5.
Third, mold development period is long. Previously, China’s car models last several decades, the development of automotive die very slowly. With competition fierce, replacement automotive products faster, with a corresponding requirement to shorten die mold industry development cycle. At present, the foreign medium-sized die-casting mold of the development cycle of only 1-2 months, automobile panel dies development cycle of 6-7 months, but China was 2-3 times the level abroad. Therefore, some of the more powerful domestic auto mold factory despite the strength of new mold and was often can not keep up the pace of replacement automotive products lose competitiveness.
Main reasons contributing to this problem is China’s automobile industry, corporate structure mold unreasonable, software development, management and staff quality and a big gap between the foreign advanced level.
The first is the low level of specialization and standardization. International, automobile mold has entered the professional standard stage. Foreign car mold is basically a professional mold manufacturer, mold commercialization rate of 70% or more, there are many specialized production Mold standard parts Companies, car mold standard parts as much as several hundred. The production capacity of China’s major focus in the OE tooling mold factory or workshop, mold the low rate of commercialization. “During the” although for enterprise restructuring, with the proportion of self-production mold is still as high as 70%. Car mold standard parts, the country has only two have a certain volume of business.
Followed behind the design and manufacturing process technology. The most outstanding performance is poor secondary development of software. In recent years, introduced many advanced mold design software. But our data on all aspects of automotive products and materials are all different and foreign, must be based on the introduction of the software with the national situation, the secondary development of software to design and manufacture of molds that meet market requirements. Secondary development of China’s weak die main reason is the lack of development experience and technical strength is weak.
Third, low quality of management and staff. In recent years, a number of major auto mold factory have introduced the world’s most advanced mold processing equipment, including FAW, Dongfeng, day gas, and other four companies flying into the fixed assets has reached 200 million yuan or so, but the level of performance and technology compared with foreign advanced level there are still significant gaps, the main reason is the low quality of management and personnel, resulting in low utilization rate of equipment, performance, not full.
