Current situation of mold industry in China

Mold industry is different from other industries, mold is a single production, specific processing industry, which determines that different mold varieties need different processing equipment. If in order to win orders, to meet the needs of different users for different products, you need to buy different equipment, but often the old processing bottleneck is solved, the new bottleneck is generated, and this processing bottleneck is due to the processing of different varieties and constantly changing, such as some mold making need to use four-coordinate wire cutting, some need to use electrical pulses to process, and sometimes rough processing out of touch Or heat treatment process capacity limitations, etc., while this capacity limitation is formed, a large number of other high-grade precision equipment is idle on the side. To make a set of molds, it is generally necessary to go through several major links such as design, material selection, mold making, surface treatment, and mold testing, and there are 10 small processes under the major links. The mold industry as a whole is very strong, usually, the establishment of a mold manufacturing enterprise with a complete process will require an investment of twenty to thirty million yuan, and the general mold manufacturing enterprise is almost difficult to achieve a complete process. The investigation in Ninghai Mold City found that most of the mold manufacturing enterprises in the above areas do not have much production equipment, and some enterprises are only some design resources and testing equipment, but their products are very competitive in the market. They are mainly through the division of labor and cooperation between enterprise groups to obtain benefits and promote the development of enterprises. The usual practice is that the scale of the enterprise is responsible for receiving orders, design, material selection and inspection work, small enterprises are firmly hold one or two processes, do fine and strong, through such a collaborative network, after receiving an order, you can choose the highest technology, the lowest price, the fastest delivery of collaborative enterprises, so as to produce the best quality products at the lowest c
