Recently, the meeting of the state owned assets supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council proposed to put scientific and technological innovation in a more prominent position, promote central enterprises to actively integrate into the national basic research and applied basic research innovation system, and strengthen key core technology research for industrial motherboards, high-end chips, new materials and new energy vehicles. After the weekend's information fermentation, the general equipment sector was collectively popular in the stock market, and the always lonely machine tool enterprises became the online popularity of the market. The historical opportunity makes the industrial machine stand on the tuyere of capital. How can machine tool enterprises make good use of this opportunity and meet the possible challenges?

As a basic and strategic industry, machine tool is at the front end of the whole manufacturing industry chain. It has the characteristics of capital intensive, technology intensive and talent intensive. It has a high demand for capital, technology and talents.

Several development opportunities in the history of China's machine tools are driven by national capital. Including the "Eighteen arhat factories" built at the beginning of the founding of new China, the layout of a number of three tier enterprises in the "three tier construction" in the 1960s, and the "precision machine tool battle" for the second automobile, which gathered a large number of high-level talents for the machine tool industry and promoted the progress and development of the machine tool industry. However, after being first introduced to the market at the beginning of the reform in the 1980s, the machine tool industry is basically facing the loss of capital and talents.

China's entry into WTO has ushered in a golden period of about 10 years for the machine tool industry, but most enterprises have embarked on the road of large-scale and homogeneous competition, which has also become the main reason for the in-depth adjustment of the industry and the reorganization of many old enterprises since 2012.

The implementation of the national 04 major project is a major action supported by the state to the machine tool industry, which has enhanced the innovation and R & D capacity of some enterprises, improved the level of medium and high-end machine tools, broken the foreign technical monopoly in the localization of high-end machine tools in some application fields, and realized the localization and batch matching of some key functional components, Through this difficult time of depth adjustment.

In recent years, with the strategic emerging industries such as automobile industry, national defense , clean energy, high-speed railway, large ship engineering, it industry, biomedical industry and "new infrastructure" becoming the main consumers of machine tools, the materials of processing objects are diversified, the structure is complex, the requirements of processing accuracy are continuously improved, and the production efficiency is continuously improved, It has caused obvious changes in the demand structure of machine tools, the consumption of machine tools is more precise, high-grade, complete and intelligent, and the product upgrading space is broad. In 2018, general secretary Xi Jinping listed the industrial aircraft as the "seven biggest bottlenecks" at the meeting of academicians and academicians. This is the starting point for this machine tool enterprise to be praised by the capital market. It is believed that through national strategic attention, industrial policy support and special action to supplement and strengthen the industrial chain, it will open up a broad development space for the machine tool industry. Machine tool enterprises should seize the rare strategic opportunity to promote the improvement of product technology level, and calmly deal with the possible challenges.

First, to be a machine tool, you need to precipitate and stick to it before you have a future

The characteristics of machine tool products determine its long industrial chain, long production cycle, small market capacity and slow return on investment. To survive in the market, we need long-term accumulation and persistence. Qinchuan machine tool moved and built its factory in the 1960s, and has become a leading backbone enterprise in the industry step by step. It is most important to insist on Qingshan's unremitting persistence and persistence, that is, to adhere to the original intention of being a good machine tool in China, strengthen the foundation, strengthen the foundation, practice internal skills, adhere to the "iron fist to grasp quality and carefully create brand", and always adhere to strengthening the main business of machine tools, Lead the machine tool industry to a higher level; We always believe that the Chinese people can make good machine tools.

Second, policy support focuses on creating a good development environment

Machine tool is an important part of the country. All countries will attach great importance to the development of machine tool industry. Some machine tool powers give policy preference to their industrial development, and even directly give meticulous and thoughtful policy protection. For example, Japan had the "Machinery Industry Revitalization Act" in 1956, and machine tools ranked first. The US Department of defense has also given high subsidies to machine tool enterprises in the country. Facing the industry outlet, in addition to giving targeted industrial policy and fiscal and tax policy support, China should also focus on creating a benign and orderly development environment and strive to build a standardized and healthy industry ecosystem. Malicious low price competition and market strangulation relying on capital advantages often lead enterprises in the industry to obtain market opportunities by means of mutual price reduction, destroy the market and stifle enterprises. It is suggested that relevant departments take the lead in formulating industry self-discipline norms with strong constraints, maintain the healthy development of industrial chain, supply chain and value chain, and form a sustainable competitive ecology and win-win enterprise relationship.

Third, classification and stratification, targeted and accurate implementation of policies

National strategic attention has stimulated the enthusiasm of the capital market for industrial machines, and the next step of national support has become the focus of attention. We suggest that we should not grasp the eyebrows and beard at once, but subdivide the industrial products according to the technical level or application field, accurately implement policies according to the competitive characteristics and strategic role of different categories of products, and provide continuous policy support. The full support of the state is required for high-end (cutting-edge) products that fill the domestic gap in the strategic field, or are embargoed and completely monopolized by foreign countries and compete directly with China; The development of medium and high-end machine tools and equipment that compete with foreign products in important application fields can be led by the market and guided by national policies; For large quantity and wide range of general-purpose machine tool equipment products, enterprises can take the road of customized large-scale production around user technology.

Fourth, mechanism innovation to accelerate scientific research and achievement transformation

At present, most machine tool products in China follow, imitate or introduce product technology. Their own core technology research is not enough and their industrialization ability is not enough, so it is difficult to form core competitiveness. This is the main reason for the difficulties in the middle and high-end of the industry and the vicious competition in the middle and low-end. The state promotes central enterprises to actively integrate into the national basic research and applied basic research innovation system, and injects national strength into the industry to improve its original innovation capability and positive R & D capability. Shaanxi Province has a new layout in this regard. The CNC machine tool industry chain is listed as the first of the 23 key industrial chains. The provincial leaders personally serve as the chain leader. Taking Qinchuan machine tool as the "chain owner" unit, they focus on the main manufacturing industry and create an innovation consortium. Relying on qinchuang's original new drive platform, Qinchuan machine tool has established the "Shaanxi high-end CNC machine tool technology innovation center" in combination with the national 04 special project and the cooperation mode and framework of "leading unit + core layer + close cooperation layer + general cooperation" including government, industry, University and research funds. The upstream and downstream collaboration of the industrial chain plays a prominent role in improving the original innovation ability and the industrialization of scientific research achievements, so as to realize the verification and improvement of domestic machine tools in the process of user use. Over the past two years, Qinchuan machine tool has made clear its strategy, focused on its main business, deeply promoted institutional restructuring and three system reforms, strengthened operation control, and improved the enterprise's R & D capability. Through the "Qinchuan faster collaboration" mechanism, a number of high-end machine tools developed by the company have been timely applied, verified and improved iteratively in faster and its supporting systems, It has rapidly improved the product technology level and market competitiveness.

Fifth, system design to create a talent gathering highland

The shortage of talent reserve in machine tool industry is the main problem faced at present. High labor intensity and low remuneration of employees are the main reasons. With the advent of new market opportunities, enterprises should have institutional arrangements and carriers to gather high-end talents, so as to provide them with a good entrepreneurship, R & D base and environment. At present, the widely established national laboratories, engineering centers and academician workstations will become the gathering carrier of R & D talents in the new era. The "broadband salary" system tailored by Qinchuan machine tool for R & D personnel has greatly stimulated the enthusiasm and creativity of R & D personnel. Due to the shortage of skilled talents, we need to start with the establishment of a new vocational education system, open up the channel of talent development, and let more young people with skills training become new industrial workers. The dual system training mode of Germany and Sweden is a mode in the construction of vocational education system, which can be used for reference but can not be copied. We should explore a new mode of skilled personnel training in combination with China's national conditions and the actual situation of enterprises; Qinchuan group's "double five mechanism" (five-level "star employee" system and five-level skill master studio system) has unblocked the path for the growth of skilled talents and made beneficial exploration in the cultivation of skilled talents in enterprises.

High level attention, there is demand in the industrial chain, and the machine tool industry ushers in a period of development opportunities. Standing at the outlet of capital carnival, learning to stick to is more important than dancing with the wind. The "pig" flying on the tuyere still needs to return to the ground when the wind stops.
