Analysis of the development status and prospects of the fastener industry

Fasteners are a kind of mechanical parts that are used for fastening connections and are extremely widely used. Fasteners are used in a wide range of industries, including energy, electronics, electrical appliances, machinery, chemicals, metallurgy, molds, hydraulics, etc., in various machinery, equipment, vehicles, ships, railways, bridges, buildings, structures, tools, instruments All kinds of fasteners can be seen on the top, chemical industry, instrument and supplies, etc., which are the most widely used mechanical basic parts. It is characterized by a wide variety of specifications, different performance and uses, and a high degree of standardization, serialization, and generalization. Therefore, some people call a type of fasteners that have national standards as standard fasteners, or simply standard parts.

(1) The industry concentration is not high, and the overall scale of the company is small

With the development of domestic private enterprises and joint ventures over the years, the number of fastener manufacturers in my country has increased and decreased. According to the estimation of my country Fastener Industry Association, there are currently more than 7,000 fastener manufacturers in my country. There are more than 2,000 enterprises above, but there are not many large-scale enterprises with a total industrial output value of more than 500 million yuan. The overall scale of domestic fastener companies is relatively small, the industry concentration is not high, and CR10 is less than 20%.

(2) Fierce competition in the middle and low-end markets, and insufficient competition in the high-end market

Due to the long-term low-level repeated construction, the fastener industry in China is currently showing the characteristics of structural imbalance. The main manifestations are: in the low-end market, the demand for ordinary fasteners is saturated and the production capacity is excessive, forming low-level repeated construction. Homogeneous and vicious competition; in high-end markets, such as the high-strength fastener market used in the automotive, aerospace and other industries, due to the weak R&D capabilities of most domestic companies and the low level of process equipment, there are only a few domestic companies Engaging in this area of ​​business, it has to rely heavily on imports for a long time.

Development direction analysis

1. Quality and brand building must be improved

To strengthen quality management, it is necessary to proactively implement the standards, improve the level of implementation, transfer from AQL quality standards to PPM world standards, strengthen production process control, 5S site management, production online inspection and SPC quality monitoring, and further improve the quality level.

2. There must be new ideas in the construction of talent team

We must understand the importance of human resources from a strategic perspective, attach importance to the cultivation and development of talents, and create a group of first-class corporate core teams with core competitiveness.

3. "Intelligence, Internet +" needs new measures

"Internet +" has begun to transform the fastener industry, but many companies have not felt the obvious change. However, by the time the changes became apparent, it was too late. Who can establish a new ecology, who will be the boss of this industry.

In short, the impact of "Internet +" on traditional industries is universal, and the fastener industry is no exception; changes may not be obvious within one or two years, but in the long run, they often exceed our expectations. Therefore, fastener manufacturers need to strengthen the construction of corporate Internet and respond to the market as soon as possible in order to seize the opportunity.

4. A new level of industrial agglomeration

Reform and adjustment need to change the concept of efficiency, pay attention to production efficiency, and more importantly, pay attention to macro efficiency, and optimize the combination of industry resources.

Do a good job in the construction of leading enterprises and increase industrial concentration. It is necessary to use capital operations and adjust mergers and reorganizations to expand and strengthen the entire industry; expand foreign markets, take the initiative to take the road of international cooperation, and expand the development space of the entire industry; continue to strengthen and expand agglomeration areas and a number of specialized production bases to enhance the entire industry Industrial concentration.

5. Product structure adjustment should be improved

Relying on major projects such as automobiles, wind power, nuclear power, high-speed rail, large aircraft, etc., develop new products, research and develop supporting new equipment, new materials and new molds.

Product structure adjustments should be implemented, focusing on the development of aerospace, high-performance special-shaped fasteners for cars, special fasteners for automobile engines, high-speed rail supporting fastener systems, high-strength bolts for wind power generation, combined bolts and assemblies, and stainless steel Fasteners, titanium-aluminum alloy fasteners, carbon fiber fasteners, IT industry miniature screws, self-locking, chemical coating and various surface treatment fasteners, etc.

6. There must be new breakthroughs in the core technology and process of the industry

In addition to further consolidating and developing the five national-level projects, increasing investment in science and technology, and another batch of new projects: high-performance, high-strength special materials; processing and heat treatment technology of new materials for tools and molds; intelligent multi-station cold forming equipment; heat treatment Special equipment; online testing technology and equipment.

7. New measures for green production

Learn the environmental protection law, strengthen cooperation with local environmental protection departments, master standards and governance technologies, and focus on solving the standard discharge of pickling, electroplating wastewater, oil fume and industrial sewage; gradually achieve clean, environmentally friendly, low-carbon and green production, and industry and local associations must play Organization and coordination role.
