Where Is The High Quality Development Path? Listen To The Eight Executive Council Of China Textile Machinery Association

In September 3rd, the first executive director meeting of the Eighth Council of the China Textile Machinery Association was held in Nanjing, Jiangsu. Gao Yong, secretary and Secretary General of the China Textile Industry Federation, Han Ping, President of Jiangsu Textile Industry Association, chairman of China Textile Machinery Association Gu Ping, honorary chairman Wang Shutian and other industry leaders and more than 100 directors of the Standing Committee attended the meeting.

The conference held discussions on the overall progress of the China Textile Machinery Association since 2019, the economic operation of the textile machinery industry, the scientific and technological work in the textile machinery industry since the beginning of this year, the future development of the textile machinery industry and the deliberations of the new members of the association.

Downward pressure on textile industry

How can the textile machinery industry provide assistance?

Gao Yong made a brief analysis of the current operation of the textile industry in his speech at the meeting. In 2019 1~6, China's textile enterprises above Designated Size realized business income of 24716 billion yuan, an increase of 3.18% compared with the same period last year, and realized a total profit of 103 billion 159 million yuan, representing a decrease of 4.04% compared with the same period last year. In 2019 1~6, the total retail sales of clothing, footwear and hat textiles increased by 3% over the same period last year, and the total export of textiles and garments was 124 billion 231 million US dollars, a decrease of 2.37% compared with the same period last year. Gao Yong believes that from the perspective of development, the operation of textile industry may continue downward this year.

For the development trend of the textile industry during the "14th Five-Year" period, Gao Yong analyzed the two aspects from the international market and the domestic market. In the long run, he said, the shift of global textile industry to low-cost regions is irresistible. At present, the decline of textile and clothing exports is the function of market development law, and Sino US trade friction is only an inducement. Domestic consumption, textile and clothing consumption reached a new level, it is difficult to maintain high growth, consumption structure has changed significantly. In response to changes in demand, China's textile industry is also undergoing continuous adjustments to its industrial structure and product mix at a low growth rate. In terms of industrial structure adjustment, we must vigorously develop industrial textiles, and try our best to adapt to the new consumption structure and consumption demand in terms of product mix.

In the textile industry's low speed growth and adjustment and upgrading, Gao Yong hopes that the textile machinery industry can have a clearer positioning for future development. Gao Yong said that European textile machinery enterprises launched many unexpected products at the ITMA 2019 exhibition in Barcelona not long ago. China's textile machinery enterprises should pay more attention to many new fields when the market of conventional products is basically saturated.

Han Ping introduced the development of Jiangsu's textile industry. Jiangsu textile industry started early, large scale, full range of industries, and complete industrial chain. It has a long history of 100 years, such as Jiangsu Dasheng and Wuxi cotton. Jiangsu's textile industry has been in the trillions of industries for 9 consecutive years since 2010. Even in the current severe market situation of textile industry, many excellent enterprises in Jiangsu are still booming. In the past two years, the downward pressure on Jiangsu's textile industry has increased, the order has been polarized, and the pressure of environmental protection has increased. Large scale investment has been reduced, intellectualized and personalized demand has increased. A new round of industry reshuffle and industrial chain restructuring accelerated.

Han Ping said that no matter what the market situation is, it is the most important thing to do well. The textile industry is also a fashion industry. It is still full of vitality. Textile machinery is the foundation for the development of textile industry. It is hoped that Chinese textile machinery enterprises will focus on the needs of textile enterprises and develop more and better textile products.

The operation of the industry has entered a period of adjustment.

How can the textile machinery industry develop with high quality?

What is the general trend of the development of China's textile industry? Where is the way out for China's textile machinery industry? This is a topic of concern for every spinning machine and even textile enterprise. At this meeting, Liu Songzhen, vice president of China Textile Machinery Association, analyzed and explained the development of the industry since 2019.

In the first half of 2019, facing the complex domestic and international macro situation, influenced by the comprehensive factors such as the pressure of textile market and the adjustment of industrial cycle, the main economic indicators of textile machinery industry increased, the export market increased slightly, the operation of the industry was under pressure, but the overall operation was in line with expectations. The industry focused on structural adjustment and industrial upgrading, actively explored the international and domestic markets, focused on intelligent manufacturing, and promoted the process of high quality development of the industry.

In 2019 1~6, the textile machinery enterprises above Designated Size reached 45 billion 971 million yuan, 0.79% less than that of the same period last year, and the total profit was 3 billion 205 million yuan, an increase of 0.46% compared with the same period last year. The export of textile machinery was 1 billion 898 million US dollars, an increase of 1.13% compared with the same period last year, and imports of 1 billion 708 million US dollars, a decrease of 6.96% compared with the same period last year.

Liu Song also introduced the sales of major products in textile machinery industry in the first half of 2019. In the field of yarn machinery, according to statistics from key manufacturers of China Textile Machinery Association, about 2300 units were sold in the first half of 2019, an increase of 4.6% compared with the same period last year. The sales of the combing machine were about 33.3%, and the combing machine sales were approximately 385, compared with that of the same period last year; the sales of roughing yarn machines were about 600, a decrease of 20% over the same period last year; the sales of cotton spinning frames were about 2 million 350 thousand spindles, a slight increase over the same period last year; the sales of rotor spinning machines were 190 thousand, down by 29.6% compared with that of the previous year; the sales of automatic winding machines were about 320, increasing by more than that of the previous year, of which the number of small and medium sized machines increased more; the sales of short staple twisters were about 20% lower than that of the previous year; in the first half of the year, the import of Taiwan's vortex spinning equipment increased significantly. Spinning

In terms of weaving machinery, the main manufacturers in China sold 2900 rapier looms in 2019 1~6, down 26.15% compared to the same period last year, and sold 38000 water jet looms, an increase of 25.89% compared to the same period last year. A total of 7500 air-jet looms were sold, representing a decrease of 8.32% over the same period last year.

Knitting machinery, in the first half of 2019, sales of flat knitting machines were about 62000 units, down 40% from the same period last year. According to customs statistics, the export volume of China's flat knitting machine was $170 million over the same period, up 21.3% over the same period last year. Circular knitting machine sales of about 11000 units, down 8% over the same period last year. According to customs statistics, the export volume of China's circular knitting machine was $120 million over the same period, an increase of 13.2% over the same period last year. In the first half of 2019, sales of warp knitting machines were about 2200 units, down 15% from the same period last year. According to customs statistics, the export volume of our warp knitting machine was 30 million US dollars in the same period, down 15.4% from the same period last year.

In the 1~6 months since 2019, the market for fabric pretreatment equipment has been running smoothly, especially the continuous pretreatment technology of knitted fabrics, and the market has been running well in recent years. In 2019 1~6, the association sold 121 key screen printing machines, an increase of 9% over the same period last year. Flat screen printing machines for key sampling enterprises sold 30 units, an increase of 11.11% over the same period last year. In the 1~6 month of 2019, the key sampling enterprises sold 221 sets of setups, which was 3.49% lower than the same period last year.

In the first half of 2019, shipments of chemical fiber machinery enterprises remained stable. According to incomplete statistics from Textile Machinery Association, the shipment volume of polyester filament and nylon filament spinning machine in the first half of the year was about 5700 spinning places, an increase of 9.62% compared with the same period last year. The shipment of high speed loom machine was about 1050 units, a decrease of 11% compared with the same period last year, but there was a certain increase in the speed of the low speed loom. The new capacity of the complete sets of polyester staple equipment is about 250 thousand tons, unchanged from the same period last year.

In terms of nonwovens machinery, the spun bonded spinning production line in the first half of 2019 was nearly 100, which was basically the same as that of the same period last year. The spunlace line completed 10 sales, which fell by more than 60% compared with the same period last year; 32 spun bonded spinning sales lines, an increase of nearly 20% compared with the same period last year, while the needle production line completed 94 sales, a slight decrease compared with the same period last year.

At present, the economic situation at home and abroad is still complex and severe. The global economic growth is weak and the prosperity of international trade is declining. External instability and uncertainties increase, the Sino US trade situation is uncertain, and the pressure of China's macro-economic operation is increasing. Affected by slowing demand in the international market and uncertain trade environment, the textile export situation in the second half of this year is not optimistic. The potential of domestic demand needs to be further explored, and the investment intention of enterprises will be more cautious. Liu Song believes that the market pressure of textile machinery industry increased in 2019, and production and sales gradually slowed down. After 2017 and 2018 years of higher growth, the overall operation of the textile machinery industry will enter the adjustment stage. However, the fundamentals of China's national economy will not change smoothly. In the future, with the continuous implementation of industrial policies, it will help to optimize the business environment, stabilize consumption and investment demand, and support the smooth operation of the textile and textile machinery industry.

In response to external environmental changes, the textile machinery industry will continue to focus on new energy development and industrial upgrading, and promote independent innovation. Textile machinery enterprises should fully understand the complexity of global economic and trade environment and the long-term nature of risk factors, comply with market demand, actively explore international and domestic markets, properly cope with improving risk tolerance and development resilience, and promote the development of high quality industries.

There is still a gap in R & D efforts.

How can textile machinery enterprises enhance their innovation capability?

Technological innovation has always been the top priority in the development of textile machinery industry. This year, China's textile machinery enterprises have achieved a number of scientific and technological achievements, 15 scientific and technological achievements have been completed, a group of enterprises have won the science and Technology Award and the patent award; the ITMA 2019 exhibition has shown many bright spots in the global textile machinery technology; the standardization of textile machinery has promoted the technological development of the industry; the textile machinery standards committee has begun to organize the formulation of standards for interoperability and interoperability of textile equipment information. As for the development trend of textile machinery technology, Li Yi, chief engineer of China Textile Machinery Association, analyzed and explained.

In 2019 1~8, 14 new scientific and technological achievements were identified by the provincial and ministerial level scientific and technological achievements organized by the China Textile Machinery Association, of which 1 reached the international advanced level. Lixin dyeing and finishing machinery (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. Sintensa Cyclone low tension flat knitting continuous bleaching and bleaching machine adopts large hub structure and low tension control technology, which is used for pretreatment of knitted fabrics, and has the characteristics of high efficiency and low water consumption. The HCP2025 intelligent combined roving machine of Seth Universal Machinery (Qingdao) Co., Ltd. adopts the external automatic doffing system, placing the driving mechanism in the middle part of the car, and driving the spinning mechanism on both sides. When driving the same variety, a set of driving mechanism is adopted to drive two different varieties. Two sets of driving mechanisms are adopted.

In 2019, the China Textile Industry Federation's science and Technology Awards (including the "Technological Invention Award" and "science and Technology Progress Award") have been concluded, and the proposal is being publicized.

ITMA 2019 will be held in Barcelona, Spain, on June 20th ~26, the largest textile technology exhibition in the world. Textile machinery enterprises in 9 European countries accounted for 65% of the display area, and Chinese enterprises accounted for 8%. Li Yi introduced and analyzed many highlights of the global textile machinery technology at ITMA 2019. He said that the number of exhibitors in China's textile machinery enterprises is quite large, but there are not many bright spots. It reflects that domestic enterprises are more focused on quantity competition, less R & D capability and insufficient R & D investment.

Li Yi also introduced the industry standard situation. As of December 31, 2018, the textile machinery industry has 123 national standards, 423 industry standards and 546 total standards, all of which are recommended standards. No new standards have been promulgated this year.

ISO/TC72 has 147 existing standards, and the international standard of domestic textile equipment is 130, and 4 items are not suitable for transformation. At present, 113 items have been transformed into Chinese standards, and the conversion rate of international standards for textile machinery and accessories is 89.6% (suitable for conversion projects). International standards are the basic general standards, and all countries are developed countries. China does not have an international standard proposal. In terms of technology and products, China has no right to speak. The national standard of textile machinery (except 2 items) has all been transformed from the ISO standard, and 3/4 of the industry standard is the product standard.

Li Yi said that the standard of equipment interconnection is the basic standard of the intelligent manufacturing system of textile machinery industry. Intellectualization and informatization are important development goals of the textile industry. Intelligent manufacturing technology and information systems are increasingly entering the textile industry, and the demand for new technologies is booming. The intelligent technology of textile machinery has developed rapidly, and the new equipment has been digitalized. As early as in 2010, the textile machinery industry has formulated the "cotton spinning equipment network management communication interface and specification" (FZ/T 90108-2010); in the field of textile machinery, three "equipment interconnection and interoperability" projects were included in the "intelligent manufacturing comprehensive standardization" project of the Ministry of industry and commerce, and promoted the development of textile equipment information interoperability technology. In addition, various so-called textile intelligent manufacturing standards are constantly emerging, and even other industries are involved in the field of textile machinery. In particular, some groups have disrupted audio-visual standards. In view of this situation, the China Textile Machinery Association and the textile machinery standards committee are going to join the school of mechanical engineering of Donghua University. According to the mature technology and the work already carried out in the early stage, the textile equipment information interoperability and interoperability standard formulation work will be started.

Zhao Xiaogang, vice president of China Textile Machinery Association, focuses on the international textile machinery exhibition. First, he stressed the importance of spinning machinery enterprises to expand overseas markets. Due to the reduction of the scale of domestic industry, the demand for the release of the capacity of the spinning machine and the transfer of industries, the changes in the domestic market, and the demand of some textile producers in the international market to improve their own industrial chains, the importance of the international market was determined, and this is also the need for the development of the domestic textile machinery enterprises themselves. After that, he introduced the textile industry and exhibitions in India, Vietnam and Burma. He said that many enterprises have more confidence in opening up the local market by participating in the exhibition. He also introduced the 2020 China International Textile Machinery Exhibition and ITMA Asia Exhibition.

At the meeting, Secretary General of China Textile Machinery Association reported on the work of China Textile Machinery Association since 2019. Including the textile machinery industry science and technology innovation, textile machinery exhibition organization work, industry standard and quality work, association information work, branch platform work, self construction and Party building work and other aspects of the report, and the 4 months after 2019, the focal point of the association was briefly introduced.

Since the eighth member congress of China Textile Machinery Association, some textile machinery and equipment enterprises have applied to join the association. At the meeting, Cong Zheng introduced 18 new units of Jiangsu's salary system, including Limited by Share Ltd.

In the afternoon session, Gu Ping organized textile machinery entrepreneurs to discuss the development of the industry and the development of the exhibition.
