Industrial Status Analysis of Mechanical Parts Processing

According to the 2016-2020 China Machinery Parts Processing Industry Development Analysis and Investment Potential Research Report released by the China Industrial Report , in recent years, the production capacity of machinery parts has not kept pace with market development, leading to a shortage of parts processing resources. The current market prospects for this industry are very promising, but considering future development, companies should strengthen the maintenance and construction of the supply chain, enhance strategic cooperation across the industry, and effectively overcome the risks and impacts of economic fluctuations on parts production and operation. Leveraging equipment advantages, machinery parts companies have begun diversifying into related machinery parts processing fields in recent years.

Before the industrial revolution, most machinery was made of wood by carpenters, with metal (mainly steel and iron) used only for making instruments, clocks, locks, pumps, and small parts for wooden machinery. Metal processing mainly relied on the precision work of machinists to achieve the required accuracy. With the widespread use of steam engines and the development of large-scale machinery such as mining, metallurgy, ships, and locomotives, the demand for metal parts requiring shaping and cutting has increased, and the materials used have evolved from copper and iron to primarily steel.

Machinery processing (including casting, forging, welding, heat treatment, cutting technology, CNC machine tools, cutting tools, measuring instruments, etc.) has rapidly developed, ensuring the supply of various machinery and equipment needed for production. At the same time, the increase in production batches and the development of precision machining technology have also promoted the formation of various production methods (interchangeable parts production, specialized division of labor and cooperation, assembly lines, etc.).

The current situation of machinery parts processing is one of supply not meeting demand, but quantity should not be pursued at the expense of quality. Current machinery parts processing needs to meet the three characteristics of shape accuracy, size accuracy, and positional accuracy to meet market demand and maintain continuous development.

The analysis of the current situation and prospects of the machinery parts processing industry in 2020 shows that China still has a lot of room for development in machinery parts processing. Both in terms of technology and demand, the market needs have not been fully met, requiring more research and development, as well as continuous learning and effort from relevant personnel.
