The era of customized solutions is coming, are you ready?

As early as the late 1970s and early 1980s, the term 'customization began to frequently appear in China's machine tool industry. Until the second half of 2011, with the gradual decline of domestic and foreign economies, China's machine tool industry began to show a slowdown in growth. In order to avoid or reduce the impact of unfavorable situations, most companies have experienced serious situations such as a sharp decline in new orders, an increase in delayed delivery by users, and an increase in inventory and accounts receivable to varying degrees. Machine tool companies have begun to take active measures. During this period, customized overall solutions have been constantly raised by the majority of companies. According to Shen Zhuangxing, Honorary Chairman of the Tool Branch of China Machine Tool Industry Association, recalled that in China’s machine tool industry, “customized It has been 30 years since the term 'Hua' appeared in the late 1970s to today. At that time, CNC laser cutting machine tools had just entered China, and in the face of this new type of high-end machine tools, tools had to be raised to corresponding heights, such as cutting tools. Since then, the transition from standard cutting tools to special cutting tools has been realized. This special tool has the characteristics of high precision, high efficiency, high reliability, etc., which not only helps users reduce production time and improve production efficiency, but also greatly improves product quality. Therefore, it is widely loved by users. Now, after 30 years of development, “modern efficient tools with high precision, high efficiency, high reliability and specialization have basically replaced traditional standard tools. Facing this situation, Academician Ruan clearly pointed out another way. That is, it no longer focuses on self-developed software platforms, but uses mature commercial software platforms to do personalized development for customers, that is, customized services, to complete the advanced functions required by customers. This customized development form is flexible and diverse in content. Supported by the strong technical capabilities of the technology provider, it can provide customers, especially high-end customers, with better services, and even increase production efficiency by a factor of 10. Customers’ special needs can be customized through the collection of modules and databases. In addition to the tool industry, China’s mold industry is also undergoing a customized, high-end, and intelligent development process. Ruan Xueyu, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a professor at Shanghai Jiaotong University, once said that Since then, China’s mold industry has been in a situation of low-end melee and high-end fall, especially the basic general software platform has long been monopolized by foreign products. According to reports, although the mold CAD National Engineering Research Center has also developed mold CAD/CAM platforms and other bottom layers However, domestic software is still not satisfactory in dealing with special functions, complex problems and stability. Moreover, even if many companies purchase various well-known commercial software at high prices, their application is not sufficient, in fact, the design is further improved The potential for efficiency is great, especially for functional development and application in specialized areas.
