Problems in China's packaging machinery industry

Packaging machinery is a major product in the packaging industry. It plays a pivotal role in the packaging industry. It provides the necessary technical equipment for the industry to complete the packaging process. Although the output value of packaging machinery is not as large as the packaging materials in the entire packaging industry, it is not a regular consumable, but it is an indispensable support for the modernization of the packaging industry. It provides advanced technical equipment for the packaging industry, guarantees high quality of packaging products, high production efficiency, variety, good production environment, low production cost and low environmental pollution, thus achieving strong vitality and bringing huge social benefits and economy. benefit. Without modern packaging machinery, there is no modern packaging industry.

Second, the problems of domestic packaging machinery

Despite the broad market prospects, China's packaging machinery, such as small scale enterprises, low product level and poor reliability, serious import dependence, low development capacity, insufficient R&D investment, and lack of professional and technical personnel, have also caused domestic packaging machinery products to be criticized. Packaging machinery automation is still basically in the test imitation stage, the self-development ability is weak, lack of scientific research and production pilot base, the product quality gap is manifested in low product performance, poor stability and reliability, unsightly appearance, rough surface treatment, many components Poor quality, short life and low reliability affect the quality of the overall product.

(1) The scale of the company is small. There are many packaging enterprises in China, and the output is large. The fragmentation of product structure has become one of the important factors restricting the development of China's packaging machinery industry. There are serious problems of repeated construction in the packaging machinery industry. The low barriers to entry and insufficient means of regulation are the main causes of this problem. Because of the low starting point of packaging machinery enterprises and the small scale of enterprises, “congenitally insufficient” and cross-department, there are problems of overall planning and macro guidance. In the process of investing and developing new products, there is often a rise and a low level of repetitive disorderly competition. .

(2) The product level is low. Domestic packaging machinery enterprises mainly produce relatively simple equipment, low level of repetition, too much product technology, simple manufacturing process, and low precision of processing equipment. Most enterprises rely on this product to start, some enterprises rely on low-level products to accumulate funds and Experience, close to medium and high-end products, some enterprises are stagnant. Compared with international advanced products, China's packaging machinery is at a disadvantage in terms of product development, performance, quality, reliability and service.

(3) Import dependence is serious. China's high-end equipment mainly relies on imports, and only a few domestic companies can provide complete sets of production lines. The gap between China and foreign advanced packaging machinery is still very large, the most important is the technical gap. Most of China's imports are complete sets or large-scale equipment, and the export structure shows a "small and scattered" situation, with a single product as the mainstay. It can be seen that compared with the import of packaging machinery in China, there is a considerable gap between foreign products and products in terms of product quality, quantity and technical content.

(4) Insufficient investment in research and development. China's packaging machinery industry does not have its own research and development strength, research investment is very small, only relying on low-cost competition. This is also the commonality of the machinery industry, it is difficult to attract a large amount of capital investment, it is difficult to carry out a large number of technological transformation. Due to insufficient funds, the self-development ability is weak, and it is impossible to produce a generation, develop a generation, and study a generation.

(5) Lack of professional and technical personnel. Due to the low profit of the packaging machinery industry, it is difficult to attract excellent technical talents, resulting in uneven talents, weak development of independent products and innovative capabilities, and even weak ability to digest and absorb similar foreign products, resulting in years of consistent products. In the research institutes of the packaging machinery industry, the situation of staff turnover is relatively serious, and the mutual trust between the research institute and the enterprise is not high.
