How the molds show their magical power in life

Human life, the development of science and technology, and the progress of society are all inseparable from the products copied from the mold. From the automobile, aircraft, spacecraft, to household appliances, building materials, and daily necessities, the mold industry has affected all aspects of human life, and will continue to affect it for a long time. China has become a major mold production and consumption country, and the world mold production center is also transferring to China. After China's accession to the WTO, the mold industry, which was hailed as "Magnetic Industry" by developed countries such as Europe and the United States, some countries have shifted manufacturing to China, and the mold industry is facing unprecedented development opportunities.

In the design and manufacture of integrated circuits in the high-tech field, precision progressive punching dies and precision integrated circuit plastic molds for lead frames cannot be absent; the manufacture of computer chassis, connectors and many components must also have precision plastic molds and Precision stamping dies; the development of digital electronic products (including communication products) without precision dies. So, which market share is so large in China's huge mold industry?

One is auto molds: competition in China's auto and motorcycle markets is gradually intensifying. Models that have remained unchanged for more than a decade and decades will be eliminated. In addition to pursuing more perfect performance and better preparation, consumers Appearance will also have a higher desire. Only by constantly introducing new products and new models can cars and motorcycles meet the appetite of buyers, and each model of car requires thousands of molds and the price is over 100 million yuan. Each type of motorcycle needs nearly 1,000 pairs of molds, worth more than 10 million yuan. And 80% of the molds of each type of car will be eliminated.

The second is electronics and communication IT molds: in this type of mold market, audio-visual products account for the bulk, especially color TV molds. It takes more than 30 molds to produce a microcomputer, and due to the rapid development of the communication industry, communication products are updated quickly, and the demand for molds is also great.

The third is home appliance molds: now it takes about 350 molds for a refrigerator, worth 4 million yuan; 200 molds for a fully automatic washing machine, worth 30 million yuan; there are 20 plastic molds for an air conditioner. Valued at 1.5 million yuan.

Fourth is building materials, medicine, kitchen appliances: in the next five years, plastic doors and windows, plastic drains and decorative plastic products, medical equipment, kitchen equipment will have a great development. By 2010, the penetration rate of plastic doors and windows and the penetration rate of plastic pipes will reach 30% to 50%, and the demand for molds will increase greatly. Mould companies that produce plastic pipe fittings, doors and windows have good development prospects, and will not be hit after entering the WTO. Obviously, the mold industry has moved from a subsidiary industry that relied on imports in the past to an independent new industry.
