Development Status and Inadequacies of Packaging Machinery Manufacturing Industry in China

China's packaging machinery started late. After more than 20 years of development, China's packaging machinery has become one of the ten industries in the machinery industry, providing effective guarantee for the rapid development of China's packaging industry. Some packaging machinery has filled the domestic gap and has been able to To meet the needs of the domestic market, some products still have exports. However, at present, China's export volume of packaging machinery is still less than 5% of the total output value, but the import value is about the same as the total output value, which is far from the developed countries.

The problems in China's packaging machinery manufacturing industry are: a lack of macro overall planning; second, lack of capital investment, investment in research and development for enterprises accounts for an average of less than 1% of sales, and third, lack of professional and technical personnel. The technical gap mainly manifests in the following aspects:

Compared with developed countries, China's packaging machinery industry products from the product structure, China's packaging machinery varieties only 1300 kinds, supporting a small number, lack of high-precision and large-scale chemical products, can not meet market demand: product quality gap in the performance of products Low performance, poor stability and reliability, unattractive appearance, rough surface treatment, poor quality of many components, short life, low reliability, affecting the overall product quality; from the perspective of the company, the domestic packaging machinery industry lacks leading companies. There are not many enterprises with large production scale and high product quality. From the perspective of product development, China still remains at the imitation stage of testing, has weak self-development capacity, lacks a pilot base for scientific research and production, and research funds account for only 1% of sales. Up to 8% to 10% abroad.

The technical level of China's packaging machinery as a whole looks at the level of skills of advanced countries for 20 years, and it is at a disadvantage in the competition of product development, performance, quality, reliability, and service.

According to relevant experts, the output of packaging machinery in China will increase to 670,000 units (sets) in 2005, and will increase to 930,000 units (sets) by 2010. However, the extensive operation of increasing capital investment and expanding the production scale alone can no longer meet the needs of the development of the situation. China's packaging production has entered a new era of adjusting product structure and improving development capabilities. Technical upgrades, replacement of production, and management are important topics in the development of the industry.

The relevant parties suggested that the product structure should be market-oriented, change the current situation of low-tech-based, low-level competition, and eliminate a group of inefficient, low-grade, low-value-added, labor-intensive products. Development and production of high efficiency and low consumption, production and sales of large-scale complete set of equipment and high-tech products. In terms of packaging functions, industrial and agricultural products tend to be refined and diversified, and packaging machinery products must be oriented towards the polarization of products with multi-functional and single high speed; for candy packaging, pillow-shaped, profiled, and conjoined ones are required. Such products require a series of packaging on a packaging machine.

In terms of technical performance, it is necessary to apply advanced technologies in other fields to packaging machinery, such as electromechanical-body technology, heat pipe technology, long-distance remote control technology, and automatic flexible compensation technology, so that the technical performance of products can be greatly improved.

In manufacturing, professional production has become a trend. International packaging machinery manufacturers attach great importance to the general capabilities of packaging machinery and the entire packaging system. Some general-purpose standard parts are no longer produced by packaging machinery companies, and some special parts are produced by highly specialized manufacturers. The real packaging machinery In a sense, the company is an assembly plant.
