China's excavator production started relatively late. Since the Fushun Excavator Factory produced the first mechanical single-bucket excavator with a bucket capacity of 1m³ (cubic meter) in 1954, it has generally experienced surveying and mapping imitation, independent research and development, and development improvement. Wait three stages.
In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the former Soviet Union's W501, W502, W1001, and W1002 mechanical single-bucket excavators were mainly surveyed and imitated from the 1930s to 1940s in the former Soviet Union, and the history of excavator production in China began. Due to the needs of the country's economic construction at that time, more than a dozen excavator production plants have been established. Since 1967, China has independently developed hydraulic excavators. The products successfully developed in the early stage mainly include WYl00 type from Shanghai Construction Machinery Plant, W4-60 type from Guiyang Mining Machinery Plant, WY60 type excavator from Hefei Mining Machinery Plant, etc. Then there appeared the WYl60 type excavator from the Yangtze River Excavator Factory and the WY250 type excavator from the Hangzhou Heavy Machinery Factory. They have taken an extremely important step for the formation and development of China's hydraulic excavator industry.
By the end of the 1980s, there were more than 30 excavator manufacturers in China, with more than 40 types of production models. A series of medium and small hydraulic excavators have been formed, with a bucket capacity of 12 grades ranging from 0.1 to 2.5 cubic meters and more than 20 models. It also produces 0.5-4.0 cubic meters and large mining-use 10 cubic meters and 12 cubic meters mechanically driven single buckets. Excavator, 1 cubic meter tunnel excavator, 4 cubic meter long arm excavator, 1000 cubic meter/h dumper, etc., and also developed a marine hydraulic excavator with a bucket capacity of 0.25 cubic meters, with a bucket capacity of 0.4 cubic meters and 0.6 Amphibious excavators of cubic meters, 0.8 cubic meters, etc. But in general, the production of Chinese excavators is small and scattered, and there is a big gap between the production technology and product quality and the international advanced level.
Since the reform and opening up, we have actively introduced, digested and absorbed foreign advanced technologies to promote the development of China's excavator industry. Among them, Guiyang Mining Machinery Factory, Shanghai Construction Machinery Factory, Hefei Mining Machinery Factory, Yangtze River Excavator Factory, etc. respectively introduced A912, R912, R942, A922, R922, R962, R972, R982 hydraulic excavators from Liebherr of Germany. Machine manufacturing technology. In later years, Hangzhou Heavy Machinery Factory introduced the production technology of H55 and H85 hydraulic excavators from Germany Demag, and Beijing Construction Machinery Factory introduced the RH6 and MH6 hydraulic excavators from Germany O&K (0&K). Manufacturing Technology. At the same time, there are Shandong Bulldozer General Plant (its excavator production base was renamed Shanjian Reconstruction Machinery Co., Ltd., including two brands of STRONG and JCM), Huanghe Construction Machinery Factory, Jiangxi Changlin Machinery Factory, Shandong Linyi Construction Machinery Factory, etc. Jointly introduced the full set of manufacturing technologies for the PC100, PC120, PC200, PC220, PC300, and PC400 hydraulic excavators (except the engine) from Komatsu. Through the digestion, absorption, and transplantation of imported technologies for several years, these factories have fully improved the performance indicators of domestic hydraulic excavators to the international level in the 1980s, and their output has also increased year by year. Due to the continuous increase and diversification of domestic demand for hydraulic excavators, the adjustment of the product structure of large and medium-sized state-owned enterprises has affected some other machinery industry manufacturers to join the hydraulic excavator industry.
Industry insiders pointed out that China's single-bucket hydraulic excavators should develop in the direction of full hydraulics; the bucket capacity should be controlled within 0.1-15m³; and for large-scale and multi-bucket excavators, due to the high requirements for the manufacture and assembly of hydraulic components, the construction site maintenance conditions The difference is still mainly mechanical. It is necessary to study and apply electro-hydraulic control technology to realize the automation of hydraulic excavator operation.
my country began to research and develop excavator products in the late 1960s. After just over 40 years, especially over 30 years of reform and opening up, China's excavator manufacturing industry has developed particularly rapidly. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2010, there were 252 enterprises above designated size in the excavator manufacturing industry in China, achieving sales of 169.785 billion yuan, realizing product sales profits of 25.367 billion yuan, and total profits of 21.406 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of more than 80%.
The Chinese excavator market is increasing at an average rate of 30%, making it one of the largest markets in the world. From the perspective of development, China is at the peak of infrastructure construction in various aspects such as road transportation, energy and water conservancy, and urban construction. The market demand for excavators is increasing year by year. In 2010, the total cumulative sales of excavators nationwide exceeded 165,000. The year-on-year increase reached 74.5%.
At the end of 2010, major domestic companies have expanded their excavator production capacity, and other companies have also opened up a series of excavator models, trying to drive corporate profit growth through the rapid growth of the excavator market. In fact, there are both risk factors and income considerations. Bank credit is not active in promoting the construction of social housing, which indirectly led to a decline in the sales of construction machinery in the second quarter of 2011. In May 2011, domestic sales of excavators were 13,956 units, a year-on-year decrease of 12.4%, and for the first time in a single month, a year-on-year decline; cumulative sales from January to May were 115,589 units, a year-on-year increase of 38.1%, a decrease of 12 percentage points from January to April.
Data shows that the market share of domestic brands from January to May of 2011 further increased to 37%. Sany Heavy Industry, which has the largest excavator production capacity in China, has reached the scale of annual production and sales of tens of thousands of units, and the top four in the industry have production capacities of more than 4,000 units per year. The rate of expansion of other companies' production capacity is also quite strong. In the next stage, domestic brand excavators may squeeze the market share of imported machines and second mobile phones to become the norm.
According to the data disclosed by Construction Machinery Online, as of September 2014, the sales volume of mini excavators under 6 tons totaled 1,006 units, of which foreign brands had a market share of 55.0% and domestic brands had a market share of 45.0%. In addition, the sales volume of excavators over 6 tons was 3139 units, the market share of foreign brands was 61.0%, and the market share of domestic brands was only 39.0%. According to information from Sany Heavy Industry, from 2011 to 2013, the company's domestic market share of excavators reached 11.56%, 15.8%, and 13.7% respectively, surpassing Carter and ranking first in the industry. Its market share once again exceeded 15%. The industry believes that the company won the first place this year and it has no suspense to achieve the "four-year sales crown".
On the whole, the domestic inventory of excavators is low, but the product prices are relatively high. The sales model is mainly based on financial leases or bank mortgages. Once credit is relaxed, excavator sales will be the best product to rebound. It can be predicted that from 2011 to 2013, with the recovery of the world's Chinese economy and the acceleration of real estate and urbanization construction, the sales of excavators of various tonnages will also continue to grow. After deducting uncertain factors, the excavation of various tonnages will be excavated from 2011 to 2013. The machine will grow at a growth rate of over 15%.
As competition in the excavator manufacturing industry continues to intensify, mergers and acquisitions and capital operations among large excavator manufacturing companies are becoming more frequent. Excellent excavator manufacturing companies in China are paying more and more attention to the research of the industry market, especially the development environment and products of the industry. In-depth study of buyers. It is precisely because of this that a large number of excellent domestic excavator brands have risen rapidly and have gradually become leaders in the excavator manufacturing industry in China and even the world.
