The current situation of the packaging machinery industry

The current situation of the packaging machinery industry:

1. Overview of my country's packaging machinery industry. Before liberation, my country's packaging machinery industry was basically blank. Most products do not need packaging, and only a few products are manually packaged, so packaging mechanization cannot be mentioned. Only Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Guangzhou and other big cities have beer, soda filling machines and small cigarette packaging machines imported from Britain and the United States.

In the 30 years after liberation, the development of my country's packaging machinery industry was quite slow. In 1956, the small cigarette packaging machine produced by Shanghai Tobacco Machinery was the earliest packaging machine produced in my country. In the 1960s, my country also produced fruit wine and beer filling machines. In the late 1970s, vacuum packaging machines, strapping machines, vertical bag making-filling-sealing machines, candy packaging machines and can sealing machines were gradually developed. Packaging machinery has not yet been formed. Industrial system.

In the 1980s, due to the rapid development of the national economy, the continuous expansion of foreign trade, and the obvious improvement of people’s living standards, the requirements for product packaging became higher and higher, and packaging was urgently required to be mechanized and automated, which greatly promoted the development of the packaging machinery industry. The packaging machinery industry plays an increasingly important role in the national economy. In order to promote the faster development of the packaging machinery industry, my country has established some management agencies and industry organizations. The China Packaging Technology Association was established in December 1980, the Packaging Machinery Committee of the China Packaging Technology Association was established in April 1981, and the China Packaging Corporation was subsequently established.

Since the 1990s, the packaging machinery industry has grown at an average annual rate of 20%-30%, and its development rate is higher than the average growth rate of the entire packaging industry by 15%-17%, which is 4.7 higher than the average growth value of the traditional machinery industry. percentage point. The packaging machinery industry has become an indispensable and very important emerging industry in my country's national economy.

There are currently more than 1,500 companies engaged in the production of packaging machinery in my country, of which nearly 400 are of a certain scale. There are 40 categories of products, more than 2,700 kinds, among which there are a batch of high-quality products that can not only meet the needs of the domestic market, but also participate in the international market competition. At present, my country’s packaging machinery industry has a number of backbone enterprises with strong development capabilities. They are mainly composed of the following aspects: after technological transformation, some strong mechanical factories that produce packaging machinery; the development level of military-to-civilian enterprises Higher township enterprises.

In order to improve the technical level of the packaging machinery industry, the National Institute of Packaging Machinery' Information Institute has been established across the country, and some colleges and universities have established packaging engineering majors, which provides a powerful way for the development of my country's packaging machinery industry to catch up with the world's advanced level. The technical guarantee.

Although my country's packaging industry has developed rapidly; it has made great achievements, but compared with developed countries, there is a big gap in product variety, technical level and product quality. Developed countries have maturely applied high-tech such as microcomputer control, laser technology, artificial intelligence, optical fiber, image sensing, and industrial robots to packaging machinery, and these high-tech have just begun to be adopted in my country's packaging machinery industry; The product variety gap is about 30%-40%; there is a certain gap in the performance and appearance quality of packaging machinery products. Therefore, we must take strong measures to further accelerate the development of the packaging machinery industry, and strive to catch up with the world's advanced level as soon as possible!
