Recently, held in Shanghai in the "2017 China international exhibition on die & mould technology and equipment", to "promote the development of cooperation and lean manufacturing, mold and forming technology" as the theme, sixty thousand square meters of exhibition space into today's mould industry "refinement, automation, informationization, integration, network, intelligence" of "large class". Mold is known as "mother of industry".

     As the important basis in the product manufacturing technology and equipment, mold industrial level is to measure the important symbol of a country manufacturing level, is one of the important supporting manufacturing product optimization and industrial upgrading. Without high levels of molds, there is no high level of component manufacturing, and there is no greater diversity of industrial products and consumer goods. How to make "the mother of industry" become a "benefit amplifier" is an important topic in the present "made in China".

     The transformation of the mold industry will accelerate the future development prospects

     According to the sponsors of the exhibition of China mould industry association statistics, in 2016, China mold and die market size of 223 billion yuan, the support of about 25 trillion yuan of related products manufacturing, mold industry of "made in China" to "quality made in China" has played a huge role, and the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry as well as mould industry provides a huge space for development.

     Statistics show that in 2016, China's auto industry mould amount of 68 billion yuan, the year about 100 new models, new models for local more than 200, 95% of car parts completed by mold development; The molds of the household appliance industry are 17 billion yuan, 90% of household appliances are mould parts. The electronic information manufacturing mould, which is represented by the smart phone, is 80 billion yuan, 80% of the parts are mould parts. In addition, the mold supports China's communication equipment, aerospace, urban rail transit, medical equipment and other manufacturing industries to achieve rapid growth.

     In 2016, China made about 80 million tons of metal products made through molds, equivalent to the number of metal products machined by nc machine tools. In the year, 75 million tons of plastic products and 6 million tons of rubber products are basically made of molds. According to introducing, this exhibition the exhibitors nearly thousand, from Switzerland, Japan, Germany, South Korea, Italy, France and other countries and regions, nearly 20 half exhibitors for Chinese companies and related items shown in keeping the steady development of China mold and die industry, on the basis of further speed up the transformation and upgrading, to quality, and the synergistic prospects.
