Inventorying instrumentation noteworthy keywords

From 2010, about 520 billion yuan in instrumentation, to 82.256 billion yuan in 2013, the growth rate of the main business income exceeded 15%. The increase of about 100 billion yuan per year in the entire industry is indeed a step by step. It is estimated that the increase in production and sales of the instrumentation industry in 2014 will still be around 15%, and will continue to exceed the growth rate of the national industry and manufacturing industry. This year, with the introduction of many national policies and changes in the pattern of industrial development, the instrument industry has brought about a wave of reforms. Let's take a look at the 20 key words that are worth watching in the instrument industry in 2014.

A: Security

With the rapid development of information technology, industrial control systems have become more and more open, especially in recent years the country has promoted the deep integration of industrialization and informatization, and it is also a process of integration of information technology and control technology. The industrial control system is more and more closely integrated with other information systems, and a large number of information systems such as common operating system platforms, database systems, communication protocols, and standards are used. The information technology itself has hidden security risks. Its introduction will inevitably amplify the security problems of control systems. . Among them, the market structure of China's industrial control products is one of the most worrying issues.

China's critical infrastructure control systems are now heavily supplied by foreign companies, such as Siemens, Schneider, and Westinghouse, and there are uncontrollable risks in key systems. If the system and database kernels are used by others, others need only Simple logic stimulation can paralyze your system.

At present, the domestic industrial control products, especially the high-end industrial control systems, are still weak and cannot completely replace foreign products. The core technologies of domestic industrial control software such as precision acquisition, precision clock, intelligent algorithm, fault location, and outage scheduling are still subject to foreign companies. The ability of independent innovation of enterprises is not strong, such as intelligent sensing and detection equipment as basic data for informatization. The acquisition and control equipment has the disadvantages of special measurement, on-line detection, and software filtering, resulting in inaccurate field data collection and affecting the control accuracy of the production process.

B: Standardization

Standardization is the reunification of things and concepts in the economic, technical, scientific, and management social practice. Through the formulation, publication, and implementation of standards, it is unified to obtain the best order and social benefits. Standardization plays an important role from small electric meters, to a company, and even to an industry.

All walks of life in China are vigorously promoting standardization, and the instrument industry is no exception. It has been striving to win the right to speak in international standards. However, despite the strong technical capabilities of the instrument industry, the ability to lead the development of international standards is also limited by the systematic understanding of the principle of standardization and the lack of mastery of methods. At present, China’s “three understanding” talents who understand technology, understand products, and understand standards less.

Fortunately, after five years of brewing preparations, the China Instrument and Metering Society announced on August 12, 2014 that it would formally establish the “Standardization Committee of the China Instrument and Instrument Society”, which will accelerate the standardization process of the instrument industry in China. Wu Youhua, executive vice president of China Institute of Instrumentation, said: "Mastering the standard means that we have the right to speak. Standard issues have a strong impact on the instrumentation industry, companies and markets. Therefore, the instrumentation industry has a strong appeal for standardization work. ."

C: Industrial cluster

The stability of the development of the instrumentation industry in 2013 seems to make people see a clearer road to the future. Many areas have begun to attach importance to the development of instrumentation, such as the construction of intelligent instrumentation industry base. Some leading instrumentation industry clusters in recent years, in this fickle market, seem to have lost the once dominant position.

If Dandong was established in the field of instruments and meters, it was the biggest criticism of this one-billion-dollar base that “only saw the arrival of no-output”. Blind investment promotion, expansion of scope, and investment promotion have become an urgent need for change. The development model.

One of the three largest instrument and meter production bases in the country, the only instrument and meter industry approved by the AQSIQ for the establishment of a "National Famous Brand Creation Demonstration Zone", and a new district in the north of Chongqing, attracting investment from foreign countries gradually takes the name of "World Top 500". Like an aristocrat, it separates the connection with the SMEs and loses its original intention of helping the development of the instrumentation industry.

In addition to Chongqing, Dandong instrument base boss, some rising stars took out bright results, so that instrumentation industry cluster presents a hundred schools of thought. For example, Wuzhong City, led by Wuzhong Instruments, and Cangnan Wenzhou, led by Tianxin Instruments, have achieved remarkable results.

At present, the instrumental industry cluster shows a hundred schools of thought, which may give the industry a good example. As the saying goes, the length of Bo’s family’s home is short.

D: big data

Big Data is another disruptive change in the field of information technology following cloud computing and the Internet of Things. Countries have adjusted their information security strategies one after another and placed big data on an important position in order to gain "information superiority" and "international right to speak."

Big data refers to the huge amount of data involved that cannot be accessed through the current mainstream software tools and can be retrieved, managed, processed, and organized in a reasonable amount of time to become more active information for helping organizations make business decisions. These data are all-inclusive, including not only the information people have published on the Internet. There are countless digital sensors on industrial equipment, automobiles, and electric meters all over the world. They measure and transmit information about the location, movement, vibration, temperature, humidity, and even chemicals in the air at any time. The changes have also produced a huge amount of data information. The strategic significance of big data technology lies not in mastering huge data information, but in the specialized processing of these meaningful data, and the “value added” of data through “processing”.

E: vicious circle

At present, there are two levels of differentiation in the sales volume and enterprise scale of China's instrument companies. The annual sales of large-scale enterprises reach up to 100 million yuan, while the sales of small-scale enterprises are only a few tens of thousands yuan, and the gap in strength is very different. The hardware conditions and software conditions of instrument manufacturing companies are very different. Large-scale enterprises have abundant funds, advanced equipment, market share increase year by year, and product quality is relatively stable; a large number of small-scale enterprises, backward production equipment, and high cost, the company is very Difficult to obtain long-term development, relatively poor product quality. Instrument companies are facing the stage of continuous integration, merger, and elimination. The pressure for survival of small-scale enterprises is increasing, and large-scale enterprises are also faced with actual conditions such as shortage of funds, personnel flow, and price increase of raw materials.

Some large companies are seeking breakthroughs in technology and use more advanced production lines to automate production processes. The advancement of these technologies has gradually transformed the industry from formerly labor-intensive to technology-intensive. The instrument industry needs to consume a large amount of metal materials such as copper, steel, iron, and aluminum each year. In order to save costs, the small-sized enterprises are repeatedly reduced in size, the quality is difficult to pass, and the service life is greatly shortened. This causes a huge waste of raw materials and forms a vicious circle of industry.

F: counterfeiting

The domestic instrument market is large, the interest is temptation, counterfeit products are ubiquitous, and the industry order has been disrupted. "Cottage" instruments are now common in the domestic market, it can be said that most well-known instrument companies have counterfeit products. Not only is the product being a cottage, trademarks are also one of the objects of the popular cottage. With the rapid development of the Internet, sales of counterfeit products have shifted from simple store sales to comprehensive marketing methods such as the use of online information sales. Some counterfeiters buy certain legitimate distributors within a certain range and use them to fill the current whistle. , Let them put counterfeit goods into the established genuine sales chain, making it more deceptive.

Although counterfeit products were investigated and dealt with by relevant departments such as industry and commerce, quality inspection, etc., counterfeiting still existed. After all, the cost of counterfeiting and counterfeiting of fake and shoddy products is too low, which makes it difficult to fundamentally eliminate counterfeiting and inferiority. However, in recent years, the state has actively supervised counterfeiting, selling and infringing intellectual property rights, and promoted a fair competition market environment. Our instrument companies should also prepare a certain awareness of rights protection, prevent the production of counterfeit products, and help fight sales.

G: Industry 4.0

The instrumentation industry is a high-speed and steady development industry. In recent years, China's instrumentation and measurement control has achieved gratifying results and has achieved greater development. However, it cannot be denied that even if China's instrumentation industry has achieved rapid development, there are still many problems. The emergence of the German Industry 4.0 strategy seems to show us a new blueprint for development.

The concept of “Industry 4.0” originated from the 2011 Hannover Industrial Fair in Germany. Its original intention was to improve German manufacturing through the application of new technologies such as the Internet of Things. Driven by the academic and industrial sectors such as the German Academy of Engineering, the Fraunhofer Association, and Siemens, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology incorporated the “Industry 4.0” project into the “High-tech Strategy 2020” in 2013. Among the top ten future projects, it plans to invest 200 million Euros to support the development and innovation of a new generation of revolutionary technologies in the industrial field. Subsequently, the German Machinery and Manufacturers Association (VDMA) established the "Industry 4.0 Platform", and the German Institute of Electrical, Electronics and Information Technology published the first industrial 4.0 standardization roadmap in Germany.

The core of the "Industry 4.0" strategy is to realize real-time connectivity, mutual recognition and effective communication of people, equipment and products through CPS networks, so as to build a highly flexible, personalized and digital smart manufacturing model. Under this model, production shifts from centralized to decentralized, and the scale effect is no longer a key factor in industrial production; products shift from convergence to individuality, and future products will be produced entirely in accordance with personal wishes, and in extreme cases will become automated, Individualized single-piece manufacturing; Users change from part-participation to full-scale participation. Users not only appear at both ends of the production process, but also participate in the entire process of production and value creation in a wide range and in real time.

H: Environmental monitoring

Environmental protection has been increasingly valued by people of all countries. While concentrating on economic development, China has also listed environmental protection as a basic national policy. Therefore, the development and use of environmental protection instruments has also received increasing attention. Experts in the industry believe that in the future, efforts will be made to strengthen environmental protection law enforcement, accelerate the pace of environmental protection construction, increase investment in environmental protection construction, and foster the environmental protection industry as a new growth point in the national economy. The market for environmental protection instrumentation products will grow substantially in the future. Especially in environmental protection instrumentation, the demand for environmental monitoring automation control system products for atmospheric environment and water environment will be very strong.

However, due to the relatively weak foundation of environmental management in China and the insufficient investment in capital, there is a big gap between the actual needs and potential needs of the environmental protection industry. The environmental monitoring instrumentation equipment that is the basis of environmental protection is still far from satisfactory. Development needs. As China’s investment in environmental protection continues to increase, the environmental protection industry will become a new growth point for the national economy. According to statistics, in 2012, there were 119 enterprises above designated size in China's environmental monitoring and special instrumentation manufacturing industry, which was four times more than that in 27 industries in 2000; in 2012, the industry achieved an output value of 9.978 billion yuan, an increase of nearly three times that in 2000; the industry in 2012 The scale of income was 9.243 billion yuan, 2.2 times more than in 2000. In the next 2-3 years, as the country continues to increase investment in environmental monitoring, the environmental monitoring instrumentation market will maintain a growth rate of more than 20%, much higher than the economic development rate over the same period. It is estimated that by 2016, the entire environmental monitoring instrumentation market will exceed 25 billion.
