Focus on machine tool remanufacturing encounters "Chinese dilemma"

Everything is afraid of "shaving the head and picking up a hot one", and the machine tool remanufacturing industry is experiencing such embarrassment.

Originally, the good news of China's machine tool remanufacturing policy level has been going on in recent days. For example, the “Notice on Deepening the Remanufacturing Pilot Work” just issued by the National Development and Reform Commission has expanded the types and scope of remanufactured products. However, the market reaction is not as hot as the policy level. Machine tool re-manufacturing can only be partial, and it is too late to form its own market.

The so-called remanufacturing is a technology that repairs and transforms used products by means of technical means on the basis of the original industry. It can help energy conservation and emission reduction to develop in depth. According to an analysis by the American Iron and Steel Institute, the United States has saved 47% to 74% of energy for remanufacturing of scrapped steel materials, reducing air pollution by 86%, reducing water pollution by 76%, reducing solid waste emissions by 97%, and saving 40%. % of water consumption.

This is very important for China, which is building a conservation-minded society. But why can such a country that benefits the country and the people cannot develop rapidly in China? The reason is that China's machine tool remanufacturing industry is still at a stage where input and output are not proportional. Enterprises are not very motivated by this.

Cao Huajun, deputy director of the Institute of Manufacturing Engineering at Chongqing University, said in an interview with the author that the process of machine tool remanufacturing in China is still relatively short and the public awareness is low. Many remanufactured products can only be limited to professional use in certain fields, and have not yet formed their own consumer market.

Thus, low recognition makes it impossible for consumers to define the difference between remanufactured products and refurbished products. “The market for manufacturing products in China is extremely chaotic, and the quality of new parts, remanufactured parts, refurbished parts, deputy parts and counterfeit parts is uneven. Consumers often only recognize new ones. Remanufactured parts and refurbished parts, deputy parts They were labeled as distrusted together." Liu Zhipeng, consultant of the management policy consulting company, said in an interview with the author.

In fact, the remanufactured parts are not the same as the refurbished parts. It is guaranteed by quality. An expert who had participated in the decision-making of machine tool remanufacturing policy said in an interview with the author, "The remanufactured product ex-factory standard is very strict. The remanufactured product must have the same performance as the new one. Some machine tools, etc. Product performance is better than new products."

However, in this complex environment, remanufacturing products will take some time to get consumer approval. "China's consumer culture is still in the era of advocating high-end equipment and pursuing famous brands. It is necessary to reverse the concept of using remanufactured parts. Countries, industry associations and enterprises should play their respective roles and actively guide consumers." Liu Zhipeng said .

In addition, the establishment of China's resource recovery system does not have the characteristics of high efficiency, it is difficult to provide effective raw material security for the remanufacturing industry, resulting in excessive industry cost. “Because remanufacturing companies cannot obtain invoices from customers who sell old products, they cannot make tax deductions. Coupled with the high-tech industry in machine tool remanufacturing, the initial investment of enterprises is much larger than the comprehensive recycling of resources. The development of the company in the early stage is very difficult," said the above experts.

The machine tool re-manufacturing industry, which has fallen into a big investment and small profit cycle, has seriously hampered the enthusiasm of enterprises. According to some media reports, the “full-time” remanufacturing enterprise of Liuyang Industrial Park, which was approved in 2009 for the national electromechanical product remanufacturing pilot park, has basically disappeared.

So, how to protect the machine tool manufacturing industry? A closer look at China's policy on machine tool remanufacturing can reveal that although the state has introduced macro-guided opinions such as recycling economy and remanufacturing development, it is similar to taxation, import and export, finance and other specific opinions related to the development of remanufacturing industry. I have not seen the movement late.

In short, there are too many industries covered by machine tool remanufacturing, and the problems encountered by various industries are different. It is difficult for the country to come up with macro policies suitable for all industries in a short period of time. However, various ministries and commissions such as the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology are conducting research on machine tool remanufacturing companies. Some specific and detailed policies will be tried in the pilot units, including specific tax support policies and national standards for remanufactured products.

The market expects that this process can be accelerated.
