In recent years, China's manufacturing industry has grown rapidly, which has greatly stimulated China's large demand for production equipment, especially since the 2002 consecutive eight-year machine tool consumption in the world. China's machine tool production has gradually established a relatively complete machine design, R&D and production system through technology introduction, imitation and independent research and development. The metal forming machine tool is an important part of the machine tool industry. Light industry, home appliances, automobiles, transportation, construction, petrochemical, aerospace and other industries require a large number of metal forming machine tools every year. Therefore, metal forming machine tools have also shown rapid growth in recent years. situation.

Machinery industry analysts pointed out that the product structure of the domestic metal forming machine tool industry has been continuously optimized and presented three major characteristics: First, with the continuous development of the industry and continuous technological advancement, metal forming machine tool products show large (heavy) type, super The development trend of heavy-duty direction; Second, medium-to-high-end, high-speed, high-precision forming machine tools have become the mainstream and focus of market demand; Third, the proportion of customized products for metal forming machine tools will gradually increase to meet the needs of different customers.

Although China as early as 2009 has already leapt to the world's largest machine tool producer. However, the gap between China's machine tool industry and foreign countries is still very obvious. As a sub-industry in the machine tool industry, metal forming machine tools are also large but not strong. The scale of the domestic metal forming machine tool industry is generally small.

According to "2010-2012 China CNC metal forming machine industry market analysis and investment value research report" shows: In recent years, China's metal forming machine tool industry product structure is continuously optimized, but the current domestic metal forming machine tools, small, low value-added products The proportion is still large. The development and production capacity of "specialized, refined, and special" metal forming machine tools that are urgently needed by high-end and specific users in China is insufficient to meet the needs of the national economic development and are still highly dependent on imports. Therefore, to improve the production of heavy-duty, high-end, high-speed, and precision metal forming machine tools, a long-term task for the development of the metal forming machine tool industry is to further optimize the product structure.
