"Precision" as one of the main features of machine tools that distinguish them from other machines has always been the goal of the global machine tool industry. The emergence of the micro-nano era is inseparable from the support of emerging technologies. The intelligent technology of the machine tool industry currently has numerous applications. The emergence of robots has further increased the level of machine micronano, and the rapid development of internal and external industrial robotics has become a key technology and an important product for intelligent manufacturing and industrial automation. It is also an important part of the automation of CNC machine tools to a higher stage.

Intelligentization is a high-level control technology that integrates information technology, system control technology, electronics technology, optoelectronics technology, communication technology, sensing technology, software technology, and expert systems to realize expansion or replacement of mental labor. The important technical foundation of the digital factory. Various types of industrial robots and examples of integrated application with machine tools fully demonstrate the emergence of industrial robots, the emergence and rapid development of the new army, and the technological advantages and market prospects brought about by the combination of CNC machines. CNC technology is the core technology of advanced manufacturing technology. Its overall level marks the level of a country’s industrial modernization and the strength of its overall national strength, and has strategic material status that surpasses its economic value. We have a long way to go to become a powerful machine tool.

Large-scale power generation, power transmission and transformation equipment, large-scale petrochemical and coal chemical installations in the energy sector require a large number of heavy-duty, precision, multi-coordinate, high-efficiency, and special-purpose CNC machine tools for machining. For energy, equipment, and other energy equipment companies, such as heavy, heavy, and Harbin, many large-scale key components must be produced by themselves, and there is a great demand for high-end machine tools. It is reported that the demand for CNC machine tools in the power equipment manufacturing industry is embodied in the thermal power and nuclear power turbine cylinders, turbine rotors and blades, generator stators and rotors, nuclear power heat exchangers and orifice plates, and hydroelectric generator base stators. Rotors require heavy machine tools.

It is understood that in addition to the equipment required for traditional energy sources, the rise of the new energy industry will expand the scope of application of mechanical products and thus provide new market opportunities for processing equipment. The most obvious example is the development of the wind power industry for the demand for wind turbines and their parts and components and the development of wind power processing equipment. At present, the overall design and load calculation capacity of large-scale wind turbines in China is relatively weak, and the design and production capacity of control systems, generators, gear boxes, and bearings have a large gap compared with the advanced level in foreign countries. The bearings, control systems, and other keys of fans are critical. Parts also need to be imported from abroad. One of the key factors of the restriction is that our manufacturing process and processing equipment are relatively backward.

However, machine tool leaders have realized the important driving force of energy equipment and have begun to actively develop related machine tools. The XKD2755×570-2M numerically-controlled fixed beam double-gantry mobile boring and milling machine independently developed by Wuzhong is suitable for the processing of super-sized components such as wind power gears; the world’s largest heavy-duty TK6932 CNC double-column landing-type milling and boring machine independently developed by Qi 2 Machine is a large hydropower generating unit, The ultra-large workpiece machining of nuclear Power Plant equipment provides the key processing machine tools.

"On the one hand, machine tools as the parent equipment for equipment manufacturing is the fundamental guarantee for the upgrade of the energy equipment manufacturing industry. On the other hand, the energy equipment industry has a strong pulling effect on the machine tool industry and can help the machine tool industry to optimize and upgrade the industrial structure. According to Luo Baihui, chief analyst of Jinmo Machine Tool Network, under the support of important industries such as energy equipment, the industrial structure and product structure of the domestic machine tool industry have seen some promising development trends: For example, new manufacturing technology and application fields Progress; As one of the major types of manufacturing equipment with a wide range of equipment, the machining center is developing in terms of functionality to a high-speed, precision-oriented development in terms of performance; precision machine tools have entered the micro-nano era; intelligent technologies have been widely used; The rapid development of the industrial robot industry has become a key technology and an important product for intelligent manufacturing and industrial automation.

The relevant person in charge of the National Energy Administration also stated that in the process of structural adjustment and technological progress in the energy industry, it can pull the technological advancement of domestic machine tool products and domestic processing equipment. The machine tool industry can ask energy companies to talk about demand, talk about the products to be processed, talk about processing technology and requirements, conduct supply and demand docking, and then confirm demonstration projects and support units.

In 2013, China's machine tool industry continued its development trend in the second half of 2012. The growth rate continued to slow down and the domestic market was in a downturn. The demand for domestically produced low-end products has been significantly reduced, and imports have been operating at high levels. The contradiction between product structure and market demand has become more prominent. The military industry, energy equipment and other fields are considered to be an important driving force for the development of China's machine tool industry to high-end development and industrial restructuring.
