During the "10th Five-Year Plan" period of national economic development, the national economic development has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the goal of planning has been completed ahead of schedule. In 2005, the national economic growth reached 9.9%, and the total import and export volume increased by 23.2%. The 28-word technology development policy formulated by the China Printing and Equipment Industry Association in the last century proposes the overall goal of doubling the printing, equipment and equipment in 2010 based on the year 2000. As of 2004, printing machinery and equipment has exceeded the goal of the 15th plan, and the annual sales of major printing machinery manufacturers have increased by 70.8% compared with 2000.


After the "Ninth Five-Year Plan" and "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, most enterprises under the guidance of the 28-character policy, the scale of enterprises and technological progress have made great progress, and some enterprises have become the leader of the industry, such as Founder of Peking University has become the leading enterprise in the development of pre-press digital workflow and related equipment in China.


Beiren Group Corporation and Shanghai Electric Group Printing and Packaging Machinery Co., Ltd. have become the main suppliers of domestic printing and post-press processing equipment. In 2004, the annual sales of products exceeded 3 billion yuan. Of course, it has also achieved the development of a number of printing machinery manufacturing enterprises such as Zhongjing Group, Guanhua Group, Dielectric Group, Xinji Group, Sino-German Group and Wutai Group.

Major achievements during the 10th Five-Year Plan period


1. Domestic digital prepress and printing equipment manufacturing started

At the end of the 20th century, the digital wave swept the printing equipment manufacturing industry. After nearly ten years of development, digital printing machines, digital direct platesetters, digital proofing machines and other equipment rapidly developed into a new printing equipment market, showing a rapid growth trend. China's printing machinery manufacturing enterprises have also made certain progress during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period. Among them, some enterprises cooperated with foreign countries to produce large-format inkjet printing machines; others have begun to produce digital direct plate-making equipment, and a small number of them have entered the market; Other companies have mass-produced digital direct plate-making equipment (polyester version), which has already achieved small-volume export.


2. Significant progress has been made in "high-efficiency printing and multi-colorization"

China's long-term duty-free imports of two products are sheetfed multicolor presses and web presses. The main technical indicators for duty-free imports are sheetfed presses with printing speeds exceeding 15,000 sheets/hour and web presses with printing speeds exceeding 60,000 sheets/hour. Thanks to the hard work of the company, the printing speed of the multi-color printing press has reached 15,000 sheets per hour. This equipment has not only passed the appraisal, but also started mass production. Small web press printing machine, medium-sized web printing machine, the highest printing speed has reached 45,000 sheets / hour and 70,000 ~ 75,000 sheets / hour, exceeding the duty-free import line, semi-commercial, commercial web printing machine Has been introduced to the market. Four open multi-color sheetfed presses and small lithographic multi-color presses have been produced by nearly ten companies, and major companies have already carried out mass production and assembly lines. Two to three companies in the single-sheet monochrome, two-color, and four-color sheetfed presses have been successfully trial-produced, and the printing speed has reached 5000-7000 sheets/hour, respectively, thus meeting the needs of packaging and printing. According to incomplete statistics, in 2004, the production and sales of multi-color machines of different specifications reached more than 300 units.


For flexographic printing presses (unit type, cascading type, satellite type, sheet-fed type), reel feeding multi-color gravure printing machine, self-adhesive trademark printing machine, there are dozens of domestic enterprises in mass production, although technology The level and quality of the grades are different, but basically meet the needs of the domestic market, so that the import volume is decreasing year by year. The above equipment has begun to apply independent technology, automatic registration, ink color remote control, alcohol wetting, double-roll double-receiving, in-line die-cutting hot stamping, UV glazing, numerical control and other advanced technologies, so that the technical level of the equipment has been greatly improved. .


3, "post-press variety, automation" scores significantly

China's post-press equipment has developed rapidly. Most of the post-press binding equipment has been mass-produced, which can basically meet the needs of the domestic market. Among them, the performance and technical level of the package, folding machine and saddle stitching linkage line are close. Or reach the international level, and some equipment exports. Packaging and molding equipment is a fast-developing field for post-press equipment. While meeting the needs of the domestic packaging and printing market, fully automatic flat die-cutting machines and die-cutting indentation hot stamping machines have become one of the largest export-oriented products. The number of manufacturers of substrate processing and surface decoration equipment has increased rapidly, not only meeting the needs of the domestic market, but also exporting some equipment. In addition, domestic companies have begun to produce automatic paper cutters and dry-process, water-based laminating machines that meet environmental protection requirements and cold stamping equipment that targets energy conservation.


The main gap in printing equipment Although the printing equipment manufacturing industry has made great achievements, the current status of a large number of imported printing equipment indicates that there is still a big gap between China's printing equipment and international advanced products. Some are still strategic gaps and should be taken. The measures are resolved.


1, "pre-press, printing, post-press equipment digitization, process" task is arduous

The task of developing digital workflows is very arduous, mainly reflected in the fact that printing equipment has not adopted international standards for file formats such as CIP3, CIP4, PDF, JDF, etc. The printing equipment has no relevant interfaces, and the core components related to it are not mentioned. Manufacturing Technology. If the positive response measures are not taken in time, the gap will continue to widen, and the wave of digital equipment imports will be unstoppable.


2, all rely on imported equipment

At present, the equipment that can not be manufactured in China has large double-format printing machine, wide-format flexographic printing machine, high-grade gravure printing machine, printing and printing connection equipment, book hardcover linkage line, automatic print production line, newspaper post-press issuance equipment, etc. These devices are not yet produced by the manufacturer and are almost all imported.


3, the level of automation needs to be improved

The automation level of printing machinery can be divided into stand-alone automation, online automation, and auxiliary operation automation. Currently, stand-alone automation has been implemented on most presses and post-printing equipment. The level of auxiliary operation automation and online automation is not high, and the gap is larger than that of foreign countries.


Development focus during the 11th Five-Year Plan period


The 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed the strategic goal of doubling the national economy in 2010 and quadrupling in 2000 and 2000. To achieve this goal, China's economic growth rate must maintain an annual growth rate of more than 7%. During the new five-year plan, the economic growth of the printing machinery industry should at least be compatible with the development of the national economy. Therefore, the following aspects should be the focus of development.


1. Improve the ability of independent innovation

In the past, the technological development of printing machinery and equipment mainly relied on the market-changing technology, the introduction of technology, the mapping of prototypes and the imitation of products between enterprises to adapt to the ever-increasing demand for printing technology. The printing machinery manufacturing industry has developed to this day, the medium and low-end equipment required by the market has been domestically produced, and the advanced technology of high-end equipment is still in the hands of foreign companies, and they are reluctant to transfer advanced technology. As it turns out, it is the transfer of technology, and we are not able to continue to innovate. Only when enterprises re-innovate on the basis of digestion and absorption, or even carry out special inventions, will the company be prosperous and invincible. Therefore, increasing investment in science and technology and establishing an effective research and development mechanism are the fundamental measures for enterprise development. In particular, large enterprise groups should strengthen the construction of enterprise technology centers, provide a platform for talents to display their talents, develop a single technology to integrated technology, and take advantage of the combination of production, learning, and research, and state-to-business innovation entity policy support. Strong technical force to solve major scientific and technological problems and product development with directionality, strategically solve the problem of sustainable development of enterprises.


2. Actively develop digital products

At present, CTP technology continues to spread to the depth and field of printing equipment, and has become an unstoppable development trend. The international digital direct plate making machine manufacturing industry has been industrialized and widely used in the plate making industry, and has been pushed to large format specifications. Digital plate-making machines are also developing in the fields of flexographic plates, silk screen plates and the like.


The digital printing machines produced by foreign manufacturers have matured, and some enterprises have gone through more than ten years of development, and the technical level has been continuously improved and improved. The main structure of this equipment is five-roller arrangement and satellite roller arrangement. It only takes five minutes for laser plate making, the highest printing speed is 7000~8000 sheets/hour, and the precision of printing can reach 300 lines/inch of FM network. At the same time, new technologies such as quantitative inking of anilox roller, waterless offset printing and UV printing can be realized.


Although some enterprises in China have begun to get involved in the field of digital direct plate making and inkjet digital printing presses, they still have no independent intellectual property rights, and the core technologies have not yet been mastered. There is no enterprise entry in the field of digital printing machines, which should attract the attention of the state and the industry. It is recommended that the state set up a special development fund to support the research and development of relevant state-level enterprise technology centers, and strive to achieve the digital direct plate-making machine industry during the 11th Five-Year Plan period. The degree to which digital printing machines reach small batch production.


3. Promote the industrialization of printing equipment

There is a view that there is no quality without a modest scale; there is no mature service network without a modest scale; there is no low-cost product without a modest scale. The author agrees with this formulation. On the one hand, the equipment level of the mechanical manufacturing industry has reached an unprecedented height. The production of CNC machine tools, machining centers, flexible processing systems, and three-coordinate inspection machines has been industrialized, and the processing quality of mechanical parts and components has been raised to an unprecedented level. The era of manual interchangeability has passed, and it can be said that the designer's design ideas and equipment can be fully satisfied. On the other hand, the design of modern assembly lines has made the technical requirements of individual workers relatively lower, and the technical span has been narrowed. The positions of most senior workers can be replaced by skilled workers. After the production of the enterprise reaches the degree of industrialization, the quality and stability of the parts and components are improved, and the tooling coefficient is no longer used to solve the problem. The CNC machine and the flexible processing line can be used to solve the problem. The assembly quality can also be solved by the assembly personnel. The situation is mainly to improve the interchangeability, reduce the manual allocation, and reduce the dependence on the experience adjustment by the size adjustment. Modern equipment requires a large amount of funds for renovation and renovation. There is no considerable scale of operation. The amount of production without industrialization cannot be achieved at all, so the quality is difficult to carry out.


4. Guide the development of green environmental protection equipment

Green environmental protection equipment has great social significance for protecting the ecological environment and maintaining the health of operators. It should be vigorously developed. At present, China has been able to produce narrow-width flexographic printing presses, corrugated printing slotting machines, flexographic printing machines, four-fold sheet-fed flexographic printing presses and water-based laminating machines, dry laminating machines, UV coating machines, etc. device. Foreign green printing presses have been widely used in the news publishing industry, and some foreign companies have introduced sheet-fed multi-color printing presses that use environmentally friendly inks. The most urgent need to develop products are wide-format flexographic printing machine, self-adhesive printing machine, multi-color corrugated printing slotting machine, cold stamping equipment, etc. Other environmentally friendly materials, processes and products are also on the printing machinery and equipment. widely used.


5. Improve the automation level of products

Domestic printing machinery products generally have problems of low level of auxiliary operation automation, many adjustment links, low work efficiency, and unstable quality. Taking a sheet-fed printing machine as an example, the automation level of the auxiliary operation of the printing machine is improved, and the functions of paper change pre-adjustment, automatic plate loading, automatic washing of rubber, automatic overprinting, ink color remote control, ink and water balance, setting data transmission interface and the like are mainly solved. The extensive use of independent drive technology will greatly increase the automation level of printing machinery products. Although some domestic enterprises manufacture web small and medium-sized newspaper printing presses, reel gravure printing machines and slitting machines have successively introduced products using independent driving technology, but only in the trial stage. This technology has been widely adopted abroad, and even in large web presses, wide format flexographic presses, satellite flexo presses, self-adhesive batch presses and sheetfed presses, independent Drive technology. The core of the independent drive technology is to directly drive the printing roller with servo motor or inverter, which eliminates the connection between the long shaft and the gear box between multiple units, which greatly simplifies the structure. At the same time, under the control of the drive, the problems of tension control, overprinting, ink balance, uniform water leveling, ink color control, etc. are solved, the auxiliary operation time is reduced, and paper and other printing accessories are saved.


6, improve the level of process manufacturing

Product prototypes and a full set of design materials can be introduced in multiple channels, and product imitation and self-digestion can be carried out, but the process technology contained in the products can only be solved by the technical personnel of the enterprise. As we all know, it is impossible to 100% of all the design ideas of a product, and the process technology and technology can not be measured at all. This is the reason that it is difficult to create advanced products with advanced drawings, so the process is very strong. important.


The process work includes a wide range of processes, process methods, process standards, and process technology are the core of the four process work. Enterprises should increase the investment in technological transformation, and in the manufacture of products, especially for the processing and inspection of key parts, high-precision numerical control equipment should be used. The process of processing and assembling parts cannot be simply understood as the traditional process development. Instead, the focus of the process work is on the important aspects that affect product quality, and the process design of industrial production is placed in the contemporary. Application of process technology. In short, the modern processing and assembly process technology has developed by leaps and bounds, and it is fully qualified to promote the implementation of the product quality project.


7. Advance the group process

Under the increasingly fierce international competition, the importance of realizing group management has been recognized by entrepreneurs. Some enterprises have realized large-scale operation through their own development or mergers and acquisitions. The strength of the company has grown steadily and has achieved great success in the process of grouping. Progress. Actually, the company does not have a certain scale strength, can not participate in the competition in the international market, and has no strength to establish a global sales and service network in the world to achieve global 24-hour hotline service, and there is no product with advanced financial strength to develop future market demand.


8. Actively adopt international advanced standards

At present, China's printing machinery products are not adaptable to standardization and low level of standardization, which has become an obstacle to product development. In particular, in the current standardization system, there is only one national standard for sheetfed presses, and there are no national mandatory standards for environmental protection and safety, and there are no international and developed advanced standards equivalent to conversion, which seriously affects the technical level of printing equipment. improve. In the new development period, we will conscientiously implement the national standardization policies, implement the development plan formulated by the national standardization management department from 2005 to 2007, and complete the revision of the national standard for sheetfed printing presses, equivalent to the use of ISO12648 and ISO12649. The international standards for the safety of printing presses and the safety of post-press processing equipment have gradually improved the standardization system for printing machinery and continuously improved the standardization level. The standardization of printing machinery is a major event in the country and the whole industry. It is hoped that the state, the industry and the beneficiary enterprises will give full attention to jointly promote the healthy development of the standardization cause.


The printing industry is both a traditional industry and an industry with great development potential. With the development of the national economy, China has become one of the world's printing powers. As a printing equipment manufacturing industry that provides equipment, there is considerable room for development both in the domestic market and in the international market competition. It should be believed that China's printing equipment manufacturing industry will certainly have a place in the world after its unremitting efforts.
