China's mold market opportunities and challenges coexist

Before the 1990s, computer software technology was rarely used in mold design. After entering the 1990s, the huge domestic market demand, especially the rapid development of the automobile and motorcycle industries, has greatly promoted the development of the Chinese mold industry. At the same time, with the involvement of joint ventures and wholly-owned enterprises, the introduction of foreign advanced mold equipment and manufacturing technology, China's casting mold technology has been rapidly improved under the leadership of the world's advanced level, including FAW Casting Co., Ltd. casting mold design A set of 3400t die casting molds for die casting machines with a total weight of 33.5t is the largest mold manufacturer in China.

At present, computer software technology, such as CAD/CAM integration technology, has been widely used in the foundry mold industry. The software used for two-dimensional design is mainly AutoCAD. The three-dimensional mold design uses more software, mainly Pro/E, UG, and Cimatron. Wait. For the domestic mold industry, the 12th Five-Year Plan period is a crucial period for the entire industry to seek development breakthroughs. How to maintain good conditions and optimize and upgrade under the trend of rapid development has become a topic that must be faced. In this process, opportunities arise. Coexistence with challenges is obvious. Although unfavorable factors still exist in the domestic and international environment, the comparative advantages of the domestic mold industry in the international mold market still exist, and thus the domestic mold market expectations continue to be optimistic. As for the future development trend, due to the continuous invasion of foreign companies in recent years, while bringing development opportunities, but also cautiously face, after all, the current overall level of the domestic mold industry compared with the international advanced level there is still a certain gap.
