Plastic processing and equipment have become a veritable energy consumer

Injection molding equipment will remain the most important processing machine, accounting for nearly two-fifths of new sales in 2017, due to its versatility in a wide range of applications, the company Freedonia said. But the group expects the fastest growing demand for plastic processing equipment from 3d printer plastics from a relatively small current market base. Sales of extrusion machinery will increase at the fastest rate of the next, supporting the growth of world construction activities. China is currently the largest equipment market in the country, accounting for 29% of all 2012 sales, and will continue to lead global demand in 2017.

Many enterprises have introduced advanced technology and design and digested and absorbed from foreign countries through joint ventures, cooperation and purchase of manufacturing licenses with similar foreign companies. This has enabled China's plastic machinery industry to have a significant improvement, and the products began to initially meet plastic processing. General needs of industry.

Global demand for plastics processing machinery is expected to grow by 6.9% per year to $37.1 billion in 2017, according to a new study by American research group Freedonia Inc., which attributed this growth to better climate sales, resulting in Accelerate fixed asset investment spending and economic growth in the production of plastic products.

As the overall global economic situation is improving and incomes are rising, the consumption demand and output of plastic products will continue to grow. Sales prospects for plastic processing equipment in China, India and Russia are promising. Turkey, the Czech Republic, Iran and other developing countries and regions will benefit from steady economic growth, continued industrialization and increased personal income, and demand for plastic processing equipment will increase. Packaging will continue to be the largest in the plastics processing machinery market, accounting for more than one-third of all 2017 sales. The next largest end market is consumer goods and construction.

Plastic processing and equipment, bear the glorious mission of "plasticizing steel", "plasticizing wood", processing "plastic alloy", playing an important role in the field of "energy saving, environmental protection", but unfortunately, Today's plastic processing, such as injection molding, extrusion, hollow molding, etc., is a major energy consumer. From this point of view, plastic processing and equipment have become a veritable energy-consuming household.

When the Chinese government is striving to establish an "energy-saving society" and calling for "energy-saving and emission reduction" to start from everyone, it is necessary for our plastics processing industry and its equipment manufacturing industry to have "big surgery". This requires accelerated product structure adjustment through "original innovation" and "integrated innovation", with the goal of "energy saving, precision and high efficiency".
