Machine tool repurchased into hot spots

With China's construction machinery entering the peak period of scrapping, the remanufacturing market has great potential. According to relevant experts, the remanufacturing of machine tools will form new industries and the scale is expected to reach tens of billions. The remanufacturing boom of machine tools has not yet fully broken out. As the old-machine repurchasing enterprise in the upstream of the industry has been ready, the world-renowned e-commerce platform for manufacturing enterprises has brought together a large number of competitors, and the old machine repurchase war has intensified.

Remanufacturing machine tools into future development priorities

As the country with the largest machine tool in the world, China's current machine tool inventory has reached 8 million units, and traditional old machine tools aged over 10 years account for about 50%. In the next 5-10 years, these machine tools may form a considerable scale of recyclable potential resources for remanufacturing.

Industry insiders said that after the old machine tool was remanufactured, most of the machine tool components could be refurbished and used, and the cost of remanufacturing was only 30% of that produced by similar equipment. Through the remanufacturing of this circular economy in machine tools, China is expected to reduce annual metal consumption by 1 million tons. According to Zhang Xiaonan, president of the China Mechanical and Electrical Equipment Maintenance and Transformation Technical Association, China's large and heavy machine tools were about 310,000 units by the year 2000. If 1% of heavy and heavy machine tools are remanufactured, this market will reach several hundred billion yuan.

The remanufacturing of machine tools has now become a new industry in some developed countries and has formed a certain scale and market. Relevant data show that there are more than 300 companies in the United States that specialize in the remanufacturing of machine tools, and DMG, Europe’s largest machine tool manufacturer, also regards machine tool remanufacturing as one of its key development businesses.

Supporting, encouraging, and promoting the remanufacturing of machine tools is both a general trend and an imperative. The machine tool manufacturing industry can not only establish a new circular economy development model featuring "resources-products-waste products-remanufacturing products", but also contribute to energy conservation and emission reduction, and it can also form a new economy through this cultivation. growth point. With the promulgation of favorable policies, China will form an increasingly large remanufacturing market, which will also promote the employment of relevant manufacturing service industries and expand foreign trade.

Second-hand machine repurchase takes the lead

At present, the domestic remanufacturing of machine tools is still mainly the maintenance and transformation of a single large-heavy machine tool, lack of process specifications, and the market is also slightly confusing. Many people in the industry have stated that as a service-oriented industry, the standardized large-scale machine tool remanufacturing enterprises are not as flexible as small-scale ones, and require a large amount of conventional remanufacturing business support, which inevitably raises the cost of management. Considering the limitations of resources such as technology and human resources, the large-scale machine tool manufacturers in the market rarely set up a remanufacturing department within the company. How to find the entry point becomes the primary consideration for companies to invest in machine tool remanufacturing.

Judging from the market gradient, China's second-hand machine tool market has hundreds of thousands of stocks, which is a very large use of resources. Remanufacturing companies can adopt a joint approach with the secondary trading market to jointly serve customers, sign remanufacturing agreements at the same time as selling used equipment, and form a one-stop service of “second-hand machine tool sales—dimensional change remanufacturing—remanufacturing machine tool site commissioning”. Customers can directly use the remanufactured machine tools that meet their own needs. This also avoids the need to look for remodeling service providers after purchasing used machines.

China's second-hand machine tool market has a high degree of maturity. In addition to traditional offline transactions, e-commerce has become a major channel in recent years. According to the person in charge of the machinery and equipment network, the used machine tools have become a highlight of the website. Currently, more than 10,000 related product information has been collected, covering a wide range of products, including horizontal lathes, floor lathes, vertical lathes, and turret lathes. Single-axis automatic lathes, etc.
