The upstream components determine the quality of CNC machine tools

As a fundamental component of CNC machine tools, the quality of upstream equipment components is an important guarantee for the performance and quality of intelligent manufacturing equipment products such as CNC machine tools.

Among them, the market structure of precision parts, functional components, and CNC systems is stable, with little price fluctuation. The market competition for sheet metal welding parts and castings is full, and price fluctuations are mainly driven by the cost of raw materials such as pig iron and steel.

The development of China's functional component industry is relatively slow, with low levels of industrialization and specialization. Although electric spindles, ball screws, CNC tool holders, CNC systems, servo systems, etc. have formed a certain production scale, they are limited by technology and can only meet the supporting needs of mid to low end CNC machine tools. The functional components used in domestically produced mid to high end CNC machine tools still heavily rely on imports. The domestic production of machine tool components such as optical machines and sheet metal has become relatively mature.

Due to factors such as expensive imported machine tools and long delivery times, the prices of domestically produced mid to high end CNC machine tools remain high, seriously affecting their market competitiveness.
