For PCB factories, good production equipment is very important. And factories purchasing equipment will never have the same tendency to pursue luxury goods as the general consumer goods industry. The manufacturing industry is a pragmatic industry, and the production of components pursues various tangible indicators such as processing accuracy, efficiency, quality, and stability.
The domestic machine tool equipment is mainly low-end, and the processing performance and stability of these machine tools have a significant gap compared to foreign machine tools. Either the processing accuracy is insufficient, or the efficiency is low or the failure rate is high. In the fierce market competition environment, the factory is competing for whose production is more competitive. They would rather spend more money to buy imported brand machine tools than leave hidden dangers to save money. Undoubtedly, when domestic factories develop to a certain level of strength, they will inevitably choose imported brand machine tools.
For example, there are a large number of domestic manufacturers of CNC machining centers, with a single machine tool costing over 100000 yuan. In the low-end manufacturing industry, the price war is very fierce. However, CNC machining centers made in Switzerland, Germany, and Japan are often worth millions or even millions, but they have become a hot topic in the industry. The machine tool equipment industry is an industry that speaks in terms of actual results. Domestic equipment should rationally recognize the gap and not boast about surpassing foreign countries just by developing a little technology. The machine tool equipment industry cannot occupy the market by boasting or relying on government guidance. The market choice is rational. The lack of trust among Chinese people in domestic machine tools can only indicate that the road to catching up with and surpassing domestic equipment is still long!
