The automotive industry has a large gap in the development of fasteners, replacing steel with plastic into a new model
Data shows that by the end of 2015, China's auto industry will have an average annual sales volume of 23 million vehicles and an annual demand for more than 1.5 million tons of automotive fasteners. And Boeing also announced an accelerated development program, with 400,000 fasteners on the fuselage and wings of a single twin-aisle plane.
The reporter's investigation found that after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the introduction of a series of new policies, relying on key industries such as automobiles, railways, ships, aerospace, infrastructure, energy industry, domestic home appliance market, and information, the domestic automotive fastener market will be. Usher in a new round of technological innovation, and promote the healthy development of the entire fastener industry. "There is no shortage of cakes in this market, it depends on who is interested", experts in parts trading said that the development in the automotive field will play a key role as a "barometer".
This is the situation that the automotive fastener industry has presented for many years. According to the survey, the annual demand for automotive fasteners exceeds 1.5 million tons.
As one of the strategic emerging industries that the country has accelerated to cultivate and develop, the new energy industry has entered the fast lane of development. According to the national plan, the newly installed capacity of wind power will reach 70 million kilowatts by 2015, and the annual high-strength fasteners for wind power will be more than 500,000 tons; by 2020, the construction of more than 40 nuclear power units of one million kilowatts will start. The annual demand for material fasteners and welding rivet products is more than 80,000-100,000 tons; at the same time, the annual demand for fasteners for the construction and maintenance of high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage transmission towers of various grades is nearly 220,000 tons.
In addition, the country's demand for fasteners in agricultural machinery, construction machinery, and railways should not be underestimated. During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, the annual sales volume of construction machinery such as excavators and road rollers is 50,000 units, and the annual demand for high-strength fasteners is 20,000 to 30,000 tons; the total output value of a series of agricultural machinery products such as tractors and harvesters is 250 billion yuan. The demand for various standard fasteners is more than 150,000 tons, and the output value is 2 billion yuan; the laying speed of high-speed rail and passenger dedicated lines is accelerated, the infrastructure investment has reached 400 billion yuan, and the demand for fasteners is nearly 300,000 tons.
It is self-evident that China faces opportunities and challenges in the process of becoming the world's leading economic power. If Chinese fastener products want to occupy a place in the international market, foreign exchanges and cooperation have become the top priority.
Survey: A new model of "replacing steel with plastic"
With the development of the automobile industry, lightweight has become the trend of the world automobile industry. Actually, on the premise of ensuring the strength and safety performance of the car, the curb weight of the car should be reduced as much as possible, thereby improving the power performance of the car, reducing fuel consumption and reducing exhaust pollution.
From the statistics of the number of fasteners, a car has about 580 different specifications and nearly 5,000 fasteners, and a medium-sized truck has about 570 different specifications and about 5,710 fasteners. If each car uses a plastic Fasteners replace a piece of auto hardware, and the mass of the car can be reduced by 8 grams. All plastic fasteners are used, the mass of the whole car will be reduced by half, and the fuel consumption will be reduced by nearly half.
According to the customs import and export data compiled by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, among the export value of my country's auto commodities in 2014, the export value of auto parts was 64.617 billion US dollars, an increase of 8.02% year-on-year, accounting for 76.64% of the total export value of auto commodities. Interestingly, Vehicle exports accounted for only 15.23%, far lower than the proportion of parts exports
