The natural gas heavy truck market has increased by 927%! The industry ushered in the outbreak


The recent heavy truck overall market and natural gas heavy truck market segment are all good and astounding.

According to the production and sales news of China National Automobile Association, in February this year, the domestic heavy truck market sold 86,000 vehicles, a substantial increase of 146% over the same period of last year. In January-February, the cumulative sales volume of the heavy-duty truck market was 169,400, a sharp increase of 136% year-on-year.

At the same time, according to the production statistics of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the domestic natural gas heavy truck market reached 4,119 units in February, an increase of 927% year-on-year. In the January-February period of this year, natural gas heavy trucks produced 6,950 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 4.8 times, with a net increase of 5,800 vehicles.

The natural gas truck market has experienced explosive growth for several consecutive months. Does it mean that the market has begun to re-enter the rapid development channel?

Heavy natural gas market grows rapidly for 8 consecutive months

In fact, the growth of the natural gas heavy truck industry did not start from the beginning of this year but showed signs of recovery from the second half of last year. The above chart shows that since July of last year, the natural gas truck market has entered a continuous growth channel. The monthly production increased by 31% year-on-year; in August, the market increased by 128%; in September, it increased by 55%, and in October increased by 117% year-on-year; by November The demand for the natural gas heavy truck market accelerated significantly, with the monthly production up by 314% year-on-year; the market in December rose by 466% year-on-year. For the whole of 2016, the output of natural gas heavy truck market was close to 20,000 units, with a net increase of 7,000 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 54%. In January 2017, the natural gas truck market grew by 257% year-on-year; in January-February, the market segment was up The increase further increased to 4.82 times.

The analysis of the first commercial vehicle network believes that the natural gas heavy truck market has continued to heat up since the fourth quarter of last year and “high fever does not recede”, which is directly related to two factors. The first is the recovery of the entire heavy truck market. Since October last year, the heavy-duty truck market has been promoted and stimulated by the ultra-superiority policy, which has been on the rise. In the fourth quarter of last year, sales volume increased by 100,000 units, and the year-on-year growth rate reached 33%. In the first quarter of this year, the market continued to grow rapidly. In January-February, the accumulated sales of the heavy truck market reached 169,400, an increase of 136% year-on-year.

As the saying goes, “Owning eggs under the covers”, then, conversely, the market as a whole is becoming more and more popular, and the natural gas truck market in which it is located has naturally acquired a historic opportunity for substantial growth.

Oil and gas price difference stimulates rapid market recovery

The second reason for the rapid recovery of the natural gas truck market is the further widening of oil and gas prices. The natural gas heavy truck market hit a bottom in 2015, and its production and sales volume reached the lowest point in history. One of the important reasons is that the price of oil has been declining, and the gas price for vehicles has been rising. The price difference between oil and gas is very small and even in some regions, LNG gas prices have exceeded. With oil prices, the economic advantage of using natural gas heavy trucks has been lost, and users are “voting with their feet” and natural gas models are no longer favored.





However, things are changing. From January 2016 to March 12, 2017, the price of diesel fuel has risen more often than ever, and the number of declines has been small. According to the statistics of the first commercial vehicle network, the price of gasoline and diesel rose 11 times, a drop of 6 times, and the price of 0# vehicle diesel increased by 1 yuan from about 5 yuan per liter at the beginning of last year to the nearest 6 yuan per liter. (The price of 0# vehicle diesel in the Beijing area rose to 6.17 yuan/liter). The overall increase in oil prices (and the future expectations of the society and the public is also rising), the vehicle LNG gas prices have dropped slightly, the oil and gas price difference has begun to widen, and the enthusiasm of users to use natural gas trucks is also recovering.

Under such a good situation, it is not difficult to understand why domestic heavy-duty trucks have recently been single-frequency.


All across the line Liberation, Shaanxi Auto and Dongfeng rank the top three

The natural gas heavy truck market has grown substantially in the first quarter of this year, and the production and sales volume of various mainstream companies has also seen a full-scale gain. In February this year, all companies rose sharply, and cumulative production in January-February was also high. FAW Liberation jumped from the third place in the natural gas truck industry last year to No. 1 in the industry. In February this year, it produced 1225 natural gas trucks, a 12-fold increase; in January-February, it produced 2,099 units, an increase of 797% year-on-year. Shaanxi Auto maintained the second-largest natural gas heavy-duty industry. In February, it produced 780 units, which represented a year-on-year increase of 16.7 times. In January-February, it produced a total of 1,384 units, a substantial increase of 7.65 times year-on-year. Liberation and Shaanxi Auto are also two companies that have produced a thousand output so far this year, with market share reaching 30.2% and 19.9% ​​respectively.

Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. has temporarily dropped to the third in the industry from last year's industry first. In February, it produced 611 natural gas trucks, an increase of 413 percent year-on-year. In January-February, it produced 996 natural gas trucks, an increase of 2.94 times year-on-year. The share is 14.3%. China National Heavy Duty Truck Group has maintained its fourth position in the industry so far this year. In January-February, it produced 705 natural gas trucks, an increase of 8.8 times year-on-year, with a share of 10.1%. Heavy trucks and Hualing heavy trucks performed equally well. In the first two months of this year, the cumulative production of natural gas trucks was 542 and 371, a substantial increase of 10 times and 36 times year-on-year, and the rankings also rose to fifth and sixth (2016 Universiade and China) LNG gas trucks rank seventh and eighth respectively in the industry. The eighth joint truck produced a total of 209 natural gas heavy trucks in the January-February period (6th last year for the industry), an increase of 143% year-on-year, and a market share of 3%.

Judging from the current development trend, the first commercial vehicle network believes that since the heavy truck market will maintain rapid growth in the first half of this year, the natural gas truck segment will maintain the current rapid recovery momentum, and the annual production and sales volume is expected to grow by at least 50 percent. %. One of the destabilizing factors is how long the high-speed growth of the heavy-duty truck market will last, and whether the price of oil will rise further.






Gear Hobbing Machine

Gear hobbing machine is a kind of machine tool widely used in gear processing machine tools. It can cut straight and helical cylindrical gears, as well as worm gears, sprockets, etc. on the gear hobbing machine. A gear processing machine for machining straight, helical and herringbone cylindrical gears and worm gears with a hob according to the generative method. Gear hobbing machines can be divided into horizontal gear hobbing machines, CNC gear hobbing machines, vertical gear hobbing machines, etc. The gear hobbing machine can also process various special tooth-shaped workpieces such as splines and sprockets when using special hobbing cutters. The machining accuracy of the ordinary gear hobbing machine is 7 to 6 (JB179-83), and the gear hobbing machine is 4 to 3. The processing diameter is up to 15 meters.
The working principle of gear hobbing: when hobbing, the tool for cutting the gear blank is a hob. Because the hob has a large helix angle, it looks like a worm. The hob is grooved in the direction perpendicular to the spiral groove to form several cutting edges. , Its normal section has a rack shape.
