China’s abrasive abrasive industry, has always been a high energy consumption and high pollution in the hardest hit, especially since the reform and opening up, the rapid development of private enterprises around a large number of indigenous equipment and backward technology applications, resulting in high energy consumption and environmental pollution more Serious, has reached the point of intolerable, abrasive abrasive industry to take the road of energy-saving emission reduction, improve the quality of coated abrasive products, occupation of the mid-range product market, abrasive abrasive industry to become the only way.
Coated abrasive refers to the abrasive with a binder on the flexible substrate (cloth or paper, etc.) made of abrasive, and grinding wheel, sand tile, Whetstone, grinding head, grinding paste together, constitute The abrasives of the six varieties, which often used in mechanical or manual operation, widely used in metal materials, wood, ceramics, plastics, leather, rubber and paint putty and other non-metallic materials, grinding, polishing and grinding. With the development of the industry and the increase in coated abrasive products, its services are becoming more and more extensive, such as aerospace, automotive, machining, wood processing, glass, shipbuilding, construction, bicycles, gold globe stainless steel products, Products and other products and parts of the surface grinding, polishing, modification, have to use coated abrasive.
At present, coated abrasive industry is resource consumption and environmental pollution industry, is subject to government departments in the administrative examination and approval and tax rate, export, price economic means restrictions. At the same time, with the 3M, VSM, Saint-Gobain, SIA, DEER and other veteran coated abrasive manufacturing enterprises to increase investment in research and development, new technologies, new materials, new equipment to accelerate the application of the industry’s primary task is technological innovation, Increase investment in development, increase the technical content of products, shorten the gap with the world’s advanced peers, adjust the product structure, change the mode of economic growth, improve the contribution rate of resource consumption.
According to the relevant survey data show that by 2011, China coated abrasive industry a total of 226 enterprises above designated size, employing 21,800 people, total assets of 3.646 billion yuan, sales income of 5.395 billion yuan, an increase of 49.62%; to achieve total profits 389 million yuan, an increase of 61.68%, the rapid development of the industry.
At the same time, according to the relevant data show that in 2011 China coated abrasive production reached 40561.43 million square meters, from the production point of view, China has accounted for the world’s largest producer of abrasive abrasive, but the product grade is mainly in the middle and low level, China’s high-end products in the market is still Europe and the United States, Japan, South Korea and other countries occupied. 2010 import and export statistics China coated abrasive export volume of 50160 tons, the export amount of 171 million US dollars; imports were 18215 tons, the amount of imports amounted to 194 million US dollars; export unit price is only about 30% of imported products; The main export products in Southeast Asia, indicating that domestic exports still remain at a low level of product quality, and foreign products there is a certain gap.
With the rapid development of China’s economy in recent years, coated abrasive industry, technological innovation efforts continue to strengthen the future of China’s abrasive abrasive category will become the largest proportion of the product category, and because of coated abrasive in the late grinding industry chain Of the unique advantages, greatly promoted the application of coated abrasive in the polishing. According to the analysis, by 2013, China will surpass the United States to become the world’s largest abrasive market, initially expected, China’s abrasive abrasive products will occupy the world’s abrasive abrasive products demand 2/3, and coated abrasive as abrasive Abrasives one of the main product categories, but also faced with a better development situation.
Relevant experts believe that the better prospects for the development of industry and enterprises have brought opportunities. The traditional development model of abrasive mold has not adapted to today’s development trend. Rare production equipment caused a lot of energy waste and environmental pollution, extensive process is also a serious waste of valuable resources and energy. Only the continuous technological innovation, take the road of energy-saving emission reduction, is the abrasive mold industry in the future development of the only way.
