The Three Trends of Small Motor Manufacturing Industry

As a device that converts electrical energy into machinery, electrical machinery is widely used in metallurgy, power, petrochemical, coal, mining, building materials, papermaking, municipal, water conservancy, shipbuilding, ports, and food processing machinery. The universality of the motor has gradually developed toward the specificity, which has broken the past situation where the same motors were used for different types of loads and different occasions.

After more than 40 years of development in China's motor industry, especially the rapid development of more than 20 years of reform and opening up, the small motor manufacturing industry has begun to develop in the direction of scale, standardization and automation, while the large and medium-sized motor manufacturing industry has been increasing the capacity of single machines. The direction of specialization, diversification, and customization. Made great progress. According to the "2014-2018 Market Demand and Investment Planning Report of China's Motor Manufacturing Industry" published by the Industry Research Institute, the rapid development of new energy has led to the rapid growth of the motor industry, and China's motor industry has broad prospects for development. At the same time, high-efficiency energy-saving is also the development trend of the entire industry. The following small series makes a simple analysis of the development trend of the small motor manufacturing industry, small motor manufacturing industry will go along the three major development.

First, specialization, specialization, and personalization

With the continuous development of the motor industry, the extension and connotation of motor products are also expanding. Motor products are widely used in metallurgy, power, petrochemical, coal, mining, building materials, papermaking, municipal, water conservancy, shipbuilding, port handling and other fields. The universality of the motor has gradually developed toward the specificity, which has broken the past situation where the same motors were used for different types of loads and different occasions. The motor is developing in the direction of specificity, particularity, and individuality. Many domestic companies are also transitioning to specialized enterprises, such as coal mine motor plants, explosion-proof motor plants, and micro-motor factories. Whether or not an enterprise has non-standardized and customized adaptability is an important aspect of measuring a company's future development potential.

Second, the product single-machine capacity continues to increase

With the gradual increase in the scale of modern industrial production, the supporting production equipment is also moving toward integration, large-scale, and large-scale development. The motor power of large-scale mechanical equipment is also increasing, and the high voltage level is also increasing. Large-capacity, high-performance motors have become the most important direction. For large-scale AC and DC motors for various rolling mills, power station auxiliary equipment, blast furnace fans, railway traction, rail transportation, ship power, and irrigation and drainage pumps, the stand-alone capacity is continuously expanding and the variety is also increasing. This has also prompted motor production companies to move closer to high-voltage large and medium-sized motor industries to improve their competitiveness.

Third, resources are concentrated in advantageous enterprises

The level of technology determines the profit level and the number of competitors. From the entire motor industry, the average profit level is U-shaped, and the number of competitors is in the shape of inverted U household appliances. At present, the motor industry has a high degree of marketization and there are numerous motor companies. The entire industry is in the process of integration and optimization. Micro-motors and large-scale motors (including some special motors) have high technical difficulty, large initial investment, and high technical threshold. They are at the highest end of the entire U-shaped curve, with higher average profit levels and fewer competitors; small-power motors Small and medium-sized motors are in the middle of the entire U-shaped curve. There are more competitors and lower average profit levels.
