Outline of the Key Market and Development of China's Chain Drive Products during the Tenth Five-Year Plan Period

The key developments in the “Five-Year Plan” of the mechanical basic parts industry during the “Tenth Five-Year Plan” period are as follows:

——Characteristics of the chain transmission product market. With the continuous development and innovation of industrial automation, chain transmission is increasingly used in various industries such as mechanical transmission, mechanical transmission, petrochemicals, mining and metallurgy, automobiles, motorcycles, agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry. The chain is also a combination of labor-intensive and technology-intensive products, which is particularly suitable for China's current national conditions. The next 5 to 10 years will be the consolidation and development period of China's chain industry. It is expected that the output of small and medium-sized industrial chains, especially the motorcycle chain, will continue to grow by a large margin. Large-scale industrial chains used in coal, petrochemical, electric power, cement, road construction, highways, and metallurgical industries will be the main direction for future development of the chain. During the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, demand will increase further; for agricultural, forestry and animal husbandry transport chains, as the degree of automation in agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry increases, the demand for chains will increase; stainless steel chains, various types of chains, It is used in a large number of production and transportation lines in industries such as grain and oil, food, chemical, and catering, and is mostly non-standard. Some manufacturers actively develop them to make them domestically, and the fields of use are more and more wide. In the future, they are faced with an intensive road and accelerated implementation. Scale production to meet market demand.

- Analysis of export prospects of chain products. In recent years, the rate of self-control of the chain required by industrial developed countries has been declining year by year, tending to be imported into developing countries. The chain production capacity of developing countries is gradually rising, such as India, Thailand, etc. Therefore, the international market competition is very fierce, especially in product quality, variety, and price. At present, China's chain products account for about 2.5% of the international market. After China's accession to the WTO, there will be more industrialized countries in the world that are optimistic about importing the necessary domestic chains from China, if we want to improve the international market of China's chain products. In terms of share, we must work hard in terms of process, efficiency, variety development, product quality and price.

——The key development products of the chain transmission industry. Relying on the pillar industries—automobile industry and motorcycle industry, taking into account the development of agricultural machinery, food packaging, printing, and environmental protection machinery, the scope of power transmission machinery has been expanded to achieve the transformation from single-species production to power plant components.
