Textile Machinery Market Has Great Potential: How Will The 20 Billion Dollar Market Be Divided?

In mid summer June, nearly 1300 countries came from 30 countries and regions.

Once again gathered in Shanghai.

There is no doubt that China's textile machinery is full of vitality and temptation.

It is the main reason to attract them to come here all the way.

Then, how big is the capacity of the Chinese market? What is the demand structure of the products? How can the textile machinery manufacturers get more market?

Different equipment needs are different.

Renovation and pformation dominate the mainstream

China's textile industry "12th Five-Year" plan put forward that by the end of 2015, the total fiber processing industry reached 51 million 500 thousand tons, an average annual growth of 4.5%, which means that in the next 5 years, there will be an annual growth of 2 million tons of fiber.

The demand for textile machinery in China will also increase due to the expansion of the textile scale. However, with the upgrading of China's textile industry, it will not increase by 20%~30% every year in the past few years. The growth rate of the textile industry will gradually slow down, and more will be the need to further pform and reduce employment and raise the level of automation.

In the past ten years, in addition to 2008, China has about 10 million spindles per year, which is generally considered by the industry to be more than 5 million yuan ~600 per year.

At present, at least 60 million spindles in the cotton spinning industry are in need of upgrading and upgrading, including textile enterprises in order to reduce employment, and provide automatic winding cars for spinning machines.

Therefore, in the next few years, even if the scale growth is slowing down, upgrading and upgrading of cotton spinning equipment will be a huge market.

In recent two years, chemical fiber equipment is in the domestic market.

In particular, chemical fiber filament equipment, several major equipment manufacturers orders have been discharged in 2013, and some even discharged to 2014.

Moreover, from a long-term perspective, there is still room for growth in chemical fiber equipment.

At present, domestic cotton resources are in short supply, and cotton is constantly looking for alternatives.

Instead of developing natural fibers, cotton can only rely on chemical fibers.

Therefore, with the continuous expansion of chemical fiber varieties, the demand for chemical fiber equipment will also increase.

In recent years, the scale development and technological progress of the knitting industry are obvious to all. Both the consumption of knitted fabrics and the number of knitted garments have surpassed that of woven fabrics.

The rapid rise of the knitting industry is inextricably linked to its short process.

In this era of high speed, high efficiency and low cost, knitting process is short and manufacturing cost is low, which is the magic weapon for winning the market.

Therefore, the market demand for knitted equipment will still shoulder to shoulder with the knitting industry.

The sales of warp knitting machines in the domestic market have been very stable in recent years.

Warp knitting machine occupies a relatively large proportion of textile products for processing industry. At present, the glass fiber, carbon fiber and reinforcing cloth of wind turbines are popular applications in warp knitting machines, and geotextile grille can also be woven by warp knitting machines.

China's textile industry "12th Five-Year" development plan steel proposed that by 2015, the proportion of industrial fiber textile processing accounts for 20% of the total fiber processing in the textile industry from the current increase of about 25% to about 25%, and the gross output value of the industry will reach about 1 trillion yuan, with an average annual growth of about 15%.

Therefore, the market demand potential of knitting machines and nonwoven equipment is huge.

Transformation and upgrading of textile enterprises

Reducing efficiency and enhancing efficiency is crucial

In recent two years, the most prominent feature of textile enterprises in equipment demand is to save labour and save energy and reduce consumption.

At present, China's textile industry is relatively concentrated in the eastern coastal areas, the land is becoming more and more inadequate, and the labor resources are becoming more and more scarce. Therefore, some textile enterprises on the one hand purchase highly automated equipment. On the one hand, it calls on the domestic spinning machinery enterprises to improve the automation level of the equipment as soon as possible, especially the equipment that can significantly reduce the employment of the small and medium-sized enterprises.

In 2011, despite the overall decline in the sales of spinning machines, the sale of long spinning cars reached 3500 units, exceeding 3 million spindles, an increase of 61.68% over the previous year, and accounted for nearly 1/3 share of the whole spinning frame market.

There is no doubt that reducing labor consumption is the primary reason for textile enterprises to choose long spinning cars.

It is understood that in the world's advanced cotton spinning enterprises, the enterprises that can reduce the employment of 10000 spindles to less than 50 people use the long spinning machine as the main means to match the doffing and slender connection.

Therefore, the collective spinning downer can help domestic textile enterprises get rid of the difficulty of employment and meet the needs of reducing labor and increasing production efficiency.

Not only does cotton spinning equipment need to improve automation level, but also textile enterprises demand for other textile machinery equipment.

Mechatronics rapier looms, intelligent air-jet looms, intelligent circular weft knitting machines, computerized flat knitting machines, high-performance warp knitting machines, and differentiated chemical fiber complete sets of equipment, with high quality, high efficiency, environmental protection printing and dyeing equipment and industrial textile equipment with intelligent on-line detection and control capabilities, are urgently needed by textile enterprises at present.

Domestic imports are buyers.

The market divides and each takes what they need.

In 2011, China's textile machinery industry achieved sales revenue of 105 billion 13 million yuan, total imports amounted to $5 billion 364 million, and the sum of two items was about 20 billion dollars.

At present, in the $20 billion spinning machine market, the sales volume of domestic equipment and imported equipment is about 7:3.

Then, what changes will this pattern take in the next few years?

"Domestic equipment is still the main force of the renovation of China's textile enterprises".

Wang Shutian, director of the China Textile machinery and equipment industry association, said that the technological progress of China's textile machinery industry in recent years is very obvious. The degree of mechanical and electrical integration of cotton spinning sets has been significantly improved. The large tonnage chemical fiber equipment production line can also be produced by the domestic spinning machinery enterprises, and has an absolute advantage over the imported equipment in terms of price performance ratio.

Nevertheless, our textile enterprises' demand for imported equipment will not diminished, and some high-end equipment will have to rely on imports.

In 2011, China imported textile machinery from 61 countries and regions, with a total import value of US $5 billion 364 million, an increase of 24.70% over the same period last year.

Among them, the import of knitting machinery ranked first, with an import volume of US $1 billion 143 million, accounting for 21.31% of the total imports, and the import of spinning machinery ranked second, with a total import value of US $980 million, an increase of 12.16% over the previous year, accounting for 18.28% of the total imports.

The rest are auxiliary equipment and accessories, chemical fiber machinery, loom, dyeing and finishing machinery, weaving preparation machinery and nonwoven machinery.

The import of knitting machinery has been ranked first in the import of all textile machinery equipment in recent years.

This is mainly due to the fact that there is still a certain gap between domestic knitting equipment and imported equipment. Therefore, some high-end computerized circular knitting machines and computerized flat knitting machines have to be imported.

Although the domestic spinning equipment is very mature, it is now facing the problem of continuous upgrading and improvement along with the changing demand of textile enterprises.

In the key links, for example, small and parallel connection, automatic winding machine also need a large number of imports.

In addition, textile enterprises have higher requirements for spinning high quality yarns. In particular, chemical filament yarns emphasize differentiation and emphasis on quality of silk. To meet these requirements, there is still a gap in domestic equipment, so enterprises only purchase imported equipment.

At present, most printing and dyeing enterprises that produce high-grade fabrics or special functional fabrics in China will choose to import after dyeing and finishing equipment.

Users reflect that foreign manufacturers' understanding of printing and dyeing process is more thorough and thorough than internal enterprises, and can better meet the requirements of enterprises.

Textile machinery has been occupying third place in imported textile products in recent years. Last year, China imported textile accessories and equipment up to US $952 million, accounting for 17.76% of all textile machinery imports.

On the one hand, there are some key parts and components. Our enterprises have not yet been developed successfully, such as grooved cylinders and Air Twister on the automatic winder, and some high-grade textile equipment on the other hand. Although the domestic enterprises have developed, the technical level and quality can not meet the needs of enterprises, for example, most of the metal card clothing for blowing carding depends on imports.

Therefore, in the next period of time, China's textile industry will continue to keep pace with the overall demand pattern of domestic and imported equipment.

Both domestic and foreign enterprises will share their cake in the market of $20 billion.
