Analysis of instrumentation industry competitiveness

The instrumentation, culture, and office machinery manufacturing industry ranked third in the newly released national quality competitiveness index industry ranking, with a score of 83.42. Among the 12 observation variables, the top scores for the industry's score are product quality grade rate, quality loss rate, export product inspection pass rate, number of patents per million yuan of output value, and international market sales rate.
Quality Competitiveness Analysis

The reporter found that instrumentation, culture, and office machinery manufacturing had two observation variables with the highest scores in all industries. They were the product quality grade rate and the export product inspection qualification rate. Among them, the product quality grade product rate score mainly reflects the industry's production using international standards or advanced standards. It can be seen that the instrumentation and culture, office machinery manufacturing industry in the use of advanced standard production performance is more prominent.

Statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics show that companies engaged in independent innovation activities in instrumentation, culture, and office machinery manufacturing account for 38% of the total number of companies and rank fourth in all industries; the ratio of R&D expenditure to product sales revenue reaches 0.89. , ranked eighth. Among them, Beijing Helisi System Engineering Co., Ltd., Jinan Gold Test Group, China Silian Group and other outstanding companies ranked first in the state-recognized enterprise technology center and nationally recognized enterprise technology center science and technology funds accounted for the proportion of sales revenue. This also shows that companies in this industry place more emphasis on investment in technology and innovation, which is consistent with higher scores on the observed variables such as the number of patents per million yuan of output value and quality loss rate.

According to data provided by the China Instrument and Meter Industry Association, in 2005, the export value of the instrumentation industry in China was 226% in 2000, with an average annual increase of 17.8%. The association believes that one of the reasons for the rapid growth of exports is that, with the improvement of the overall quality of corporate technology, management, and operation capabilities in China, some products have scale advantages and international market competitiveness. In addition, investment by foreign-funded enterprises in China is also an important factor in export growth.

According to Yu Jiacheng, chairman of the China Instrument and Meter Industry Association, the emphasis on technology and standards has enabled China's instrumentation industry to continue to strengthen its manufacturing capabilities. A number of products with independent intellectual property rights have replaced imports. For example, the market share of DCS (Distributed Control System) independently researched and developed in China has increased from 10% at the end of the last century to more than 30%, so that foreign products gradually withdraw from the field. At present, DCS produced by local companies has exceeded the number of wholly-owned and joint ventures of internationally renowned companies in China in terms of output, output value, sales revenue, and orders.

In 2005, breakthroughs were made in the localization of 600MW thermal power plant control equipment. The 2*600MW subcritical thermal power unit of Shaanxi Jinjie Power Plant adopted the DCS produced by Beijing Helishi Company, and the 2*600MW critical unit of Hebei Longqi Power Plant also used Guodian. Zhishen company produced DCS. In 2006, several sets of 600MW supercritical units were already and soon to be used domestically-controlled equipment.

After years of development, another major category of China's instrumentation and culture, office machinery manufacturing industry - culture, office equipment manufacturing, has become the main production base of global cultural office equipment. Canon, Fuji, and other multinational companies have set up factories in China, and local companies represented by Founder, Lenovo, etc. are also actively developing new technologies and new products in an attempt to compete with the transnational giants for the market.
Brand competitiveness analysis

In 2003, power meters and meters were included in the list of Chinese brand-name products as the first batch of instrumentation products, and a total of seven products were selected. In 2006, after re-evaluation, five more products were added. In addition to the three products newly selected for gas meters in 2006, the instrumentation industry currently has 15 Chinese brand-name products.

The instrumentation industry has also emerged a number of independent brands that have gone out. In 2004, Holley (Argentina) Electric Energy Meter Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Holley Group and Argentina's IATE Group, opened. This is also the second overseas electric energy meter manufacturing base of Holley. The company produces and sells 300,000 Huali brand electric energy meters each year. The products are mainly sold to Argentina, Brazil, Peru and other South American countries, which expands the Holley brand's market share in the international market. In addition to Huali, Silian Instrument Group, Beijing Instrument North Instrument and Meter Co., Ltd. and other companies have also taken the first step in the output of their own brands.

In 2002, cameras (single-lens reflex cameras, perspective cameras) were listed in the China Top Brand Product Evaluation Catalog as the first batch of cultural and office equipment products. Four products produced by three companies, namely Phoenix, Seagull, and Pulihua, were selected. Three years later, the list did not change after re-evaluation. The reason why there were no new recruits was mainly due to the fact that mechanical cameras had already exited the mainstream market. However, it is undeniable that most of the mainstream digital camera market has now been occupied by foreign brands.

Industry development status

According to the latest data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, from January to July 2006, the total industrial output value of instrumentation, culture, and office machinery manufacturing industry was 179 billion yuan, an increase of 21.99% over the same period of last year; the sales revenue of products was 171.1 billion yuan. The same period last year increased by 20.2%.

In 2005, the instrumentation industry achieved a total industrial output value of 177.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.9%, which was the highest in nearly 10 years. The industry’s total sales revenue reached 172.6 billion yuan, the industrial added value reached 59 billion yuan, and the total profit reached 12.3 billion yuan.

In 2005, the top three sales revenues in China's instrumentation industry were, in turn, general instrumentation manufacturing (55%), optical instrumentation and spectacle manufacturing (28%), and special instrumentation manufacturing (13%).

In 2005, the industrial added value of the cultural and office equipment manufacturing industry reached 8.968 billion yuan, an increase of 16.34% year-on-year; the sales revenue of products completed 52.858 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 22.98%. The export value of the entire industry was 43.545 billion yuan, and the total profit was 1.722 billion yuan. It is worth noting that the total profits of foreign-funded enterprises accounted for 98% of the total profits of the industry.

Experts analyze competitiveness

Speaker: Yan Jiacheng (Chairman of China Instrument and Meter Industry Association)

In the developing countries, China's instrumentation industry is developing at the fastest speed and its strength is also the strongest. As the production scale of high value-added products represented by DCS continues to expand, with the continuous growth of excellent companies represented by E&H, Zhejiang Zhongcu, and Shanghai FOXBORB, the instrumentation industry in China will continue to maintain its high-speed growth momentum.

"Several Opinions of the State Council on Revitalizing China's Equipment Manufacturing Industry" listed "major project automation control and key precision testing instruments" as sixteen major technical equipments that have important influence on the promotion of sustainable development of the national economy, industrial upgrading, and national economic security. And one of the products, which will effectively promote the revitalization of China's instrumentation industry.
In high-tech industries such as instrumentation, innovation ability is the bottleneck of its development. It must be acknowledged that in terms of technology, China's instrumentation industry is about 10 to 15 years away from developed countries. In my opinion, the innovation method that is more suitable for China is integrated innovation, that is, the comprehensive use of other product technologies to solve the problems of its own products. It can be purchased abroad for individual difficulties, and it can also cooperate with domestic research institutions. As China's instrumentation industry continues to strengthen its innovative capabilities, its competitiveness will be further enhanced.
