China Casting Industry Development Status and Trends in 2024



First, casting overview

Casting is an important and indispensable part of the development of the equipment manufacturing industry, which has a wide range of applications in the fields of machine tools, automobiles, instrumentation, shipbuilding and aerospace.Casting is through the melting of the metal liquid poured into the casting, by cooling and solidification to obtain the required shape and properties of the parts of the production process. Casting is a commonly used manufacturing method, low manufacturing costs, process flexibility, can be obtained in complex shapes and large castings, a large proportion of mechanical manufacturing.

Casting process classification

Second, the casting industry development status

1, the global casting production

Casting is an important and indispensable part of the development of equipment manufacturing industry, machine tools, automobiles, instrumentation engineering machinery, shipbuilding, aerospace and other high-end manufacturing fields have a wide range of applications. The current casting industry development is more mature, the future development trend tends to be stable, from the casting production point of view, the global casting production in the past ten years are maintained at 110 million tons or so. 2019-2020 by the impact of the global new crown epidemic, the casting production appeared to be a significant decline, with the weakening of the impact of the epidemic as well as the gradual recovery of the downstream demand side, the global casting production in 2022 will reach 110 million tons.

2, the global casting production

Sub-regional point of view, in recent years, with the international industrial division of labor and industrial transfer, the global industrial chain is constantly reconstructed, emerging economies to undertake the international industrial transfer, casting industry development is rapid, China, India, Brazil and other emerging economies of the casting production capacity has been among the world's top ten, in particular China's casting production for 22 consecutive years has ranked first in the world. 2022 China to 51.705 million tons of castings. In 2022, China ranked first in the world with 51.705 million tons of castings, accounting for about 50.87% of the global castings production. At the same time, China's castings export amount is huge, is one of the world's largest exporters of castings.

Third, the casting industry development trend

1, the concentration of the industry to improve, towards scale, intensive direction of development

At present, although the number of enterprises in China's foundry industry is still relatively large, but with the domestic casting market stabilized in recent years, coupled with the increasing strength of national environmental protection supervision, a considerable number of production equipment is poor, inefficient and high emissions of small-scale foundry enterprises gradually lost the space for survival, the current number of enterprises compared to the "13th Five-Year Plan" at the beginning of the has been significantly reduced. Decrease, the average size of enterprises has improved. According to the China Foundry Association released the "foundry industry," the 14th Five-Year "Development Plan", the annual casting output of more than 10,000 tons of enterprises more than a thousand, more than 50,000 tons of nearly 200 enterprises, the trend of industrial concentration is obvious, the entire foundry industry is moving towards scale, intensive direction.

2, industrial transformation and upgrading, towards intelligent, digital direction of development

With the current artificial intelligence technology and the continuous updating and iteration of digitalization level, a new generation of information technology and industry, the deep integration of manufacturing has become a development trend. Through the combination of advanced technology and modern machinery and equipment, digital and production management, such as 3D printing intelligent equipment, digital production workshop, etc., can effectively reduce labor costs, improve product quality, reduce energy and material consumption, improve production efficiency, improve the labor environment, and ultimately promote the upgrading of industry.

3, "green casting" concept has become an industry consensus

With China's economy from high-speed development to high-quality development, the production of environmental protection has higher requirements. In order to adapt to the industry's energy saving and sustainable development needs, the state has promulgated a series of laws, regulations and pollutant emission standards, especially the ecological environment of the key areas of the more stringent requirements. Over the past few years, China's corporate environmental management investment has increased significantly, the overall level of environmental management has improved significantly, part of the casting enterprise environmental management level has been in the forefront of the world counterparts, "green casting" has become one of the important goals of the industry enterprises to pursue. At the same time, the industry to improve the level of environmental governance can also eliminate a considerable number of backward production capacity can not meet the requirements of environmental governance, so as to further optimize the industrial structure.
