Hardware industry actively expand the domestic market increased the technological improvement

      With the development of the domestic hardware mold industry, competition from various provinces has become increasingly fierce, and disorderly competition in the hardware mold industry has begun to appear. The disadvantages of low-cost hardware, low-quality product structure and low technical content have also become increasingly obvious. The hardware mold industry began to rise in Dongguan in the 1960s, and reached its peak in the late 1980s. At that time, the threshold of the hardware mold industry was very low, and there was no need for any technology. You could open a family workshop-style hardware mold processing factory by buying some old equipment for 30,000 yuan. After more than 40 years of development, there are more than 10,000 hardware and mold processing enterprises, most of which are labor-intensive small enterprises.
      At present, domestic private mold companies generally have advanced equipment resources and relatively advanced technology applications. New technologies can be widely and quickly applied in the industry. From design and manufacturing to related material production, heat treatment, etc., an industrial chain is formed, with outstanding integration advantages. At present, due to insufficient funds and lack of self-owned brands, hardware mold companies will increase investment in management and technological transformation, expand the proportion of mid-to-high-end products, and set up domestic sales departments to actively expand the domestic market.
      In the context of increasingly fierce competition in the international die-casting mold market, the Japanese die-casting mold industry is also working hard to reduce production costs. In terms of market size, the decline in Japan is the most obvious regardless of output value or domestic demand. Japanese mold manufacturers pay more attention to the polishing and grinding process in technology, while German mold manufacturers start by improving the accuracy and efficiency of mechanical processing and electrical discharge processing to reduce the time of manual processing. Now Japan’s die-casting mold industry is gradually shifting molds with low technology content to regions with low labor costs, and only produce products with high technology content in the country. Japan’s trend of accelerating the transfer to foreign countries has made Japan’s own die-casting molds use The amount is reduced.
      Experts believe that due to the gradual decline in domestic demand and increased costs in global mold production countries such as Japan, the United States, and Germany, mold manufacturers in these countries have begun to shift production and gradually explore the Chinese market. It is hoped that China's cheap labor and material procurement costs can increase profits. However, once the mold manufacturing enterprises of these countries move eastward, it will inevitably cause the mold design and manufacturing technology of their countries to invisible outflow. In this way, it is necessary to invest a large amount of research and development expenses again to strengthen the competitiveness of its mold products, so as to open up the difference between it and China's mold products.
      In recent years, affected by the international financial crisis, there has been a global market shrinkage. However, according to relevant data, as of the first half of the year, Japan is still a strong country in the production of die-casting molds in the world, its profits have not shrunk, and its competitiveness is still strong. Hardware molds have strong competitiveness. Experts believe that the biggest advantage and strength lies in both private enterprises and traditional industries. Entering the high-end market is inseparable from high technology. On the other hand, although the entry of foreign mold companies will intensify the competition of domestic molds to a certain extent, the entry of these high-end mold companies also promotes the awareness of domestic mold competition from another angle, which will increase the technology Improve the overall mold manufacturing level.
