Dominant World's 20-Year Japanese Machine Tool Market in China

The Japanese machine tool industry began planning after the Second World War, and rose to the 80s in the last century. It surpassed the established manufacturing power of Germany. In 1982, its output jumped to the top in the world, and this crown was maintained until 2008. The Japanese machine tool industry, which has been the world's number one for more than 20 years, has never given up its ambition to expand globally. Early in the 1980s in the world of their glory, and in the late 1990s, Japanese companies have already intervened in the Chinese market. Moderately promoted the development of the Japanese machine tool industry from the post-war 1950s, through the close integration of imported technology and independent research and development, and benefited from the strong support of the government, as well as the accurate grasp of the trend of CNC technology at that time, to the 80s Japan Beyond Germany to become the world's largest machine tool producer. In 2008, Japanese machine tools produced more than 15 billion US dollars, accounting for about one-fifth of the world's machine tool production. Over the past 30 years, the development of the industry and the accumulation of technology have enabled the Japanese machine tool industry to enter the development stage of exporting technology and capital expansion overseas. Different from the Chineseization path of some European and American companies, the expansion of Japanese companies in China seems to be more moderate and inadvertent. This is more obvious in the Japanese FANUC company. The well-known Japanese FANUC company has become the world's largest professional CNC system manufacturer since the 1970s, accounting for 70% of the global market share. The first step in their expansion in the Chinese market was to form a joint venture with Beijing Machine Tool Research Institute, namely Beijing FANUCO Electromechanical Co., Ltd., which was established in 1992 with a registered capital of 11.3 million US dollars, specializing in the production and sales of CNC machine tools. With repairs. Nearly 20 years since the establishment of the joint venture company, Beijing’s FANUC has rarely revealed the company’s output, marketing volume, operation and share distribution, regardless of whether the Chinese or Japanese leaders are very low-key. Less public release or interviews. Since the beginning of this century, with the rapid development of China's equipment industry, the machine tool industry has also received great attention from the state. As a key component of the machine tool host, the CNC system has become more and more popular in localization and creating a "China core". Some old experts in the Chinese machine tool industry have thus reflected on the cooperation with Japan's Fanuc. Among them, some experts feel that cooperation has slowed down the progress of China's CNC system industry, including Chinese experts inside Beijing FANUC. However, cooperation, the balance of the benefits of the state, industry and enterprises should be balanced and evaluated. The wise see wisdom. The reporter once visited the Beijing FANUC company, which is located in the Beijing Machine Tool Research Institute. The area is small, and the workshop is mainly for assembly and maintenance services. But it is such an inconspicuous workshop. They are transported to CNC systems all over China. They are in the tens of thousands of sets every year and once ranked first in the sales of similar products in the Chinese market. Their market share in China's CNC system products is basically only comparable to Siemens. Five years later, in December 1997, Japan FANUC and Shanghai Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Shanghai Electric (Group) Co., Ltd., jointly established Shanghai FANUC Robotics Co., Ltd. with a registered capital of 2 million US dollars. The new plant not only has a new robotic system factory, various laboratories, training and educational facilities and technical service organizations, but also established the Robot Application Technology Research Institute. Japan's FANUC claims to be the world's largest supplier of control system integration. Therefore, its product line, in addition to the numerical control system, has diversified industrial robots and CNC machining centers that were expanded in the 1970s and 1980s. CNC products. In 2008, Japan's FANUC became the world's largest robot manufacturer, and its first global sales exceeded 200,000 machines, ranking first in the market. In this situation, it seems reasonable for Japan’s FANUC to invest in Shanghai. Crossing China's two major political and economic fascinations, one south and one north, the Japanese layout of Japan's Fanuc is thus quietly formed. Step by step for the promotion of Yamazaki Mazak in China, it seems that there is no such thing as a smooth walk. In 1998, Yamazaki Mazak established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Yamazaki Mazak Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., responsible for the sales and service of Yamazaki Mazak products in China. This is just a sales company and does not have a production function. Two years later, in 2000, Yamazaki Mazak Co., Ltd. and Ningxia Great Wall Machinery Group Co., Ltd. jointly invested in the establishment of Xiaoju Ren Machine Tool Co., Ltd., which mainly produces NEXUS series CNC lathes and vertical machining centers, as well as VTC series vertical machining centers. . According to the contract, the joint venture period of the two parties is 20 years. Yamazaki Mazak shares in technology transfer, accounting for 25% of the shares, Ningxia Great Wall Machinery Group holds 75% of the shares. The company's factory covers an area of ​​12,000 square meters. But only five years later, the identity of the joint venture has changed. In March 2005, Ningxia Little Giant became a wholly-owned company in Japan. After the joint venture was turned into sole proprietorship, the rapid development momentum of Little Giant was impressive. The number of employees increased from 100 to more than 420. The annual production capacity increased from more than 400 to 1,500, and the factory was doubled. However, the incident was soon questioned. Why is the joint venture contract timed 20 years and changed only after 5 years? Why did the previous joint venture company operate in a general situation, and quickly turned over after sole proprietorship? Why does the Ningxia Little Giant have to become a Japanese-owned company? Fortunately, the storm has subsided soon after it lasts. The Little Giant flew all the way. After three phases of digital factory expansion, the current total construction area is more than 40,000 square meters, with an annual production capacity of 2,000 CNC machine tools. The company has a total of 19 products, mainly producing medium and high-grade vertical machining centers and full-function CNC lathes. By the end of 2010, Yamazaki Mazak had provided more than 11,000 machine tools to more than 2,800 customers in China. According to the latest news, Dong Qingfu, general manager of Yamazaki Mazak Machine Tool (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and general manager of Little Giant Machine Tool Co., Ltd., said in April this year that Little Giant's machine tools will build a production scale of 200 units per month. At the same time, the executive who had airborne the Dalian machine tool to the Little Giant many years ago also revealed the willingness of Yamazaki Mazak to invest further in China. He said that Yamazaki Mazak will continue to increase investment and expand production bases in the Chinese market. With the expansion of Yamazaki Mazak in the Chinese market, the number of technical service centers will gradually increase. The looming of China's financial crisis seems to be a good opportunity for the world to see the unique situation of China's economic landscape. That is to say, in this year, the total output value of China's machine tool industry has become the world's number one, surpassing Japan, which has dominated the world for more than 20 years. In 2010, China's machine tool industry still maintained the first value of production value. Regardless of the evaluation of the Japan Machine Tool Association and Japanese machine tool companies, an obvious fact is that more and more Japanese companies are beginning to enter the Chinese market and use China as a place for them to re-gold. In April, the reporter interviewed Takashi Junro, a specialist of Japan's Amada Co., Ltd. In his opening remarks, he emphasized that China is the most important market in Tiantian. In fact, Tiantian’s time in China was 1982, far ahead of Yamazaki Mazak and Fanuc, but for more than 20 years of business performance, Tiantian’s top management seems to be unsatisfied. They repeatedly said: “China’s growth The speed is too high, far exceeding our expectations. We have to vigorously operate the Chinese market in 2011.” Japanese companies with the same ideas as Tiantian are really rare. Mori Seiki Co., Ltd., a large Japanese machine tool company, also said that it is trying to expand its fast-growing Chinese market and is negotiating with domestic companies to set up a machine tool joint venture in China. The rise of Japanese machine tools in the 1980s was inseparable from the transfer of international manufacturing, on the one hand thanks to the strong development of the Japanese auto industry. In the past 30 years, the same background and the same situation seem to reappear in today's China. Perhaps it is this recognition that some Japanese machine tool companies are willing to move their products, sales and even factories away from home, and intend to seek future development of the company in China. As for whether the Chinese market can meet the expectations of Japanese machine tool companies, it remains to be seen. The problem now is that in the eyes of Chinese customers, Japanese machine tools are basically the second echelon. Whether Japanese products can surpass the first echelon of Germany and compete with Italian and Spanish machine tools with individual advantages, we also need to consider the comprehensive performance of Japanese companies. After the compilation: Japan is a world economic power and a manufacturing power. If it is not affected by the financial crisis of 2009, the status of Japan's machine tool production value in the world is unlikely to be shaken. Why are Japanese machine tools so "strong"? First, focus on the introduction of advanced technology and equipment, and be good at absorbing and using the results of other countries, and speed up the development. When the Japanese machine tool industry started, the foundation was weak and almost zero. In this case, not all of them started their own research from the beginning, but introduced a large number of advanced technology equipment, purchased advanced European and American machine tools for anatomical analysis, and hired foreign experts as consultants and guidance to develop and produce their own machine tools. From the early copy of the "imitation", to the complete "innovation", and gradually progressed to a qualitative leap. As Japan actively introduces and uses new technologies in Europe and the United States, the technical standards for Japanese machine tool manufacturing have been greatly improved, and new products manufactured by ourselves have been continuously developed, and the output value has also increased dramatically. Today, although Japan has gradually become a major machine tool producer, and its products are also exported in large quantities, it still continues to import advanced equipment from Europe and the United States and introduce advanced technology from Europe and the United States. Only about 70% of the imported machine tools are the world's most advanced special processing machines such as electric discharge machines and laser processing machines. The second is to focus on continuous innovation and dedication to research and develop the world's latest technology, so that machine tool production is in a leading position for a long time. Many analysts believe that Japan has always been aiming at the latest technology in the world of machine tool production, constantly researching new topics, constantly introducing new products, and constantly seize the technological frontier of world machine tool production, and make itself invincible. With the development of these research results, a number of advanced machine tools with increasing scientific and technological content have been developed. In the 21st century, under the situation that industrial safety and health and green industry have become the common requirements of the world, the Japanese machine tool industry has made dry cutting and chip processing the focus of research and is at the forefront of the world. It can be said that the Japanese machine tool industry has been researching new topics every year. Every year, new technologies are introduced in the world, and new products with leading technology are developed every year to promote the continuous improvement of machine tool production. The third is to focus on the development of foreign trade and continuously increase overseas investment, which has effectively enhanced the competitiveness of the global machine tool market. When we are still importing Japanese machine tools to solve manufacturing problems, Japanese companies are already thinking about the next product strategy. This spirit of constant pursuit of excellence and innovation is also one of the reasons why Japanese machine tools lead the world.
