China's crawler crane market is optimistic

The most important feature of crawler cranes is their ability to carry cranes and carry loads. With the rapid development of large-scale construction projects and the construction of new energy projects such as wind power and nuclear power, crawler cranes have had unprecedented opportunities for development. Many construction machinery companies have begun to focus on the development trend of crawler cranes. Many companies have invested a lot of money and hope to obtain excess profits when the industry is fully erupted. ?

1. Market analysis of tracked cranes over the years According to research conducted by Dun & Bradstreet Research's Industrial Products Division, before 2004, the development of crawler cranes in China was almost stagnant, and more than 150 tons were basically imported products. Since 2004, with the rise of the Chinese economy, The electricity, petrochemical, steel, and transportation infrastructures entered a construction boom, and the domestic crawler crane market entered a period of rapid expansion. In 2006 and 2007, it was basically flat, but by 2008, thanks to the favorable influence of international and domestic economic environment, China's crawler crane sales reached 1648. Taiwan, a year-on-year increase of 69%, and by 2009, affected by the international and domestic financial crisis, China's crawler crane sales reached 1,131 units, a year-on-year decrease of 31%.

Second, the proportion of crawler crane market Dun & Bradstreet Research Industrial Products Division believes that in 6 years, China's crawler crane has achieved leapfrog development, has been recaptured by the Japanese enterprises occupied by small tonnage market, but compared with mature markets, China's crawler crane market Still in the early stages of development. The proportion of foreign crawler cranes in mobile cranes is generally above 15% and Japan is up to 30%. However, in China, even the best performing 2008, the proportion of crawler cranes is less than 6%.

The D&B Industrial Products Division believes that with the impact of China's economic environment and policy incentives, the share of China's crawler cranes in the lifting operation market will inevitably increase significantly, and the market prospects in the future will be broad.

Third, the crawler crane market competition pattern According to research by D&B Industrial Products Division, at present, domestic companies in China's crawler crane market include Fushun, Sanyi, Zhonglian, Xugong and Liugong, while foreign companies have: Manitowoc Crane Group, Lipoheer, Germany, and Japan's Tadano, Hitachi Sumitomo, Kato and Kobelco and other companies.

The D&B Industrial Products Division believes that Fushun, Sanyi, Zhonglian and Xugong have consistently occupied over 90% of China's crawler crane market share. Dun & Bradstreet Research's Industrial Products Division believes that as more and more construction machinery companies are entering the crawler crane industry, or investing capital, or expanding production capacity, or mergers and acquisitions, or going public, they hope to receive excess profits when the industry is fully erupted. This will inevitably lead to increased competition.

IV. Future prediction of crawler crane market In China, the rapid development of new energy projects such as wind power and nuclear power has also provided vitality for the crawler crane market. According to the characteristics of wind power lifting, crawler cranes are the preferred equipment for wind power lifting operations, especially when the lifting impellers are installed in the docking of the engine room. The crawler cranes can take advantage of the characteristics of lifting and walking to make them more advantageous. At present, many companies in China have specially developed crawler cranes for wind power installation, which shows that the market has broad prospects.

In the next decade, China’s total investment in new energy will exceed 3 trillion yuan. It is estimated that by 2020, the cumulative installed capacity of Chinese wind turbines will increase from the current 26 million kilowatts to more than 100 million kilowatts. The pace of nuclear power construction will also be greatly accelerated. From the just-concluded China Nuclear Power Sustainable Development Forum, it was learned that by 2015 nuclear power generation will reach 9 million kilowatts from the current 9 million kilowatts, and the original plan for 2020 will be completed ahead of schedule. The concerted efforts of wind power and nuclear power construction will promote a new round of rapid development of China's crawler cranes.

According to the current 3 trillion yuan new energy investment policy launched by the Chinese government, China's crawler crane sales will steadily rise in 2010, increasing by more than 30% year-on-year to approximately 1,500 units, slightly lower than the 2008 sales level.
