Du Yuzhou Talks About Three Highlights Of 2010 Textile Machinery Exhibition

On June 8, Du Yuzhou, President and Gao Yong, Vice President of the China Textile Industry Association, and Xu Yingxin, Executive Vice President of the Textile Branch of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, were interviewed by news media about the upcoming 2010 China International Textile Machinery Exhibition and ITMA Asia Exhibition in Shanghai. "The highlights and characteristics of this textile machinery exhibition" and "the positive significance that can be interpreted through this textile machinery exhibition" are the key topics of this interview.

Du Yuzhou said that the decline of the world textile industry has eased, as can be seen from the scale of participation of domestic and foreign manufacturers and the predicted number of professional visitors. Although we judge that there is still a big gap between comprehensive recovery and many uncertainties, signs of recovery in the textile industry dominated by Asian countries have emerged, and China and Asia have become the world's largest textile machinery markets. In the financial crisis, developed countries also began to pay attention to and revitalize the real economy. At present, the high-end products of textile machinery in the world still depend on developed countries. The crisis triggered a new round of technological progress. The innovation of foreign textile machinery is mainly manifested in energy conservation, emission reduction and cleaner production, which is closely related to low-carbon economy. Therefore, the first highlight of this textile machinery exhibition is the textile machinery equipment with high performance, high technology, intelligence and meeting the requirements of low-carbon economy, represented by famous brand products in developed countries.

Du Yuzhou believes that the great progress in the overall technical level of China's textile machinery is the second highlight of this textile machinery exhibition. He said that, in addition to the well-known large-scale enterprises in China, many small and medium-sized textile machinery enterprises' characteristic products, such as dobby shedding device, roller, cradle, spindle, etc., have reached the international advanced level. Small and medium-sized enterprises make their high-quality products enter the international market through professional technological progress, or become special parts suppliers of international famous brands through new product sales. In addition, high-tech products, such as electromechanical integrated control chips and other independent products, also show strong vitality in the competition with foreign similar products.

According to Du Yuzhou, from January to April this year, the fixed investment in China's textile industry increased by more than 19% over the same period last year. With the growth of industry demand, the sales of textile machinery increased by 51.64% year on year. From January to April, the choice of equipment purchased by domestic enterprises has changed from half of imported equipment and half of domestic equipment in the past to 74.54% of domestic equipment (including the products of foreign-funded enterprises in China). He believes that this change shows that the performance and stability of domestic textile machines have made significant progress.

The third important point is to understand and observe the development trend of the world textile industry through this textile machinery exhibition. Du Yuzhou believed that in the next 10 years, China's textile industry must rely on significant progress in technology and equipment to achieve the goal of becoming a textile power. It is not only the direction of industrial progress, but also the urgent requirement of the textile industry to adopt advanced technology and equipment as far as possible, advocate the contribution rate of science and technology and brands, and oppose purely quantitative expansion.

Du Yuzhou said that energy conservation, emission reduction and cleaner production technologies will definitely be a highlight in this exhibition, and special equipment for industrial textiles will also attract visitors. In addition, the short process and high-capacity packaging technology that can improve efficiency, the online control and electromechanical integration technology that can improve quality, and the use of network information transmission technology, human-computer dialogue interface and intelligent technology for online design change constitute many highlights of the exhibition, and guide the continuous innovation of the textile machinery industry.

Du Yuzhou stressed that openness is the prerequisite for the progress of the industry. He believes that this textile machinery exhibition is an important platform for the textile industry to learn from and learn from emerging technologies, and can attract the attention of emerging industries such as electronics, biology, information, new materials, etc. to enter the textile machinery industry and promote the overall development of the textile industry.

Gao Yong informed the reporter of the latest progress in the preparation of the exhibition: as of June 8, the number of exhibitors had reached 1171, of which the number and area of European enterprises had decreased due to the financial crisis and the recent sovereign debt crisis of European countries, while the number of Asian countries and regions had increased. There are 630 Chinese enterprises, accounting for 55% of the total.

Xu Yingxin said that the international influence of China International Textile Machinery Exhibition and ITMA Asia Exhibition is growing. According to the statistics of the Textile Branch of the Council for the Promotion of International Trade, professional visitors from Asian countries will increase significantly this year, which is also a highlight of the news media.
