First, CNC machine tools: the industry is facing new opportunities, output is expected to continue to grow
With the gradual advancement of China Manufacturing 2025, new strategic requirements and transformation challenges are raised for domestic CNC machine tools: high-speed, high-precision, composite, intelligent, open, parallel-driven, networked, extreme, green The development will become the development direction of CNC machine tools.
In the short term, the intelligent transformation of traditional manufacturing industries and the integration of the Internet and manufacturing industries will become the new demand growth points brought by CNC machine tools.
It is expected that the output of CNC machine tools will continue its growth in 2018, and the annual output of CNC metal cutting machine tools will be about 256,000 units, an increase of about 2.2% year-on-year.

Second, industrial robots: continuous expansion of production capacity, production is expected to continue rapid growth
At present, there are more than 800 companies involved in the production of robots in China, and there are a large number of traditional manufacturing companies continue to produce industrial robots. There are more than 40 industrial robot parks built or under construction in China, and a large number of industrial parks are under preparation. It is expected that It will be completed and put into use in the next few years and will further release the industrial robot production capacity. Therefore, it is predicted that by 2018, the output of industrial robots in China will reach 152,000 units, an increase of about 35% year-on-year; from 2017 to 2020, the average annual growth rate of industrial robots in China will be about 35%; by 2020, the output of industrial robots will be close to 239,000 units.
