In the ten years of development, China has become the second largest producer of instruments and meters

After decades of construction and development, especially in the past ten years, China's instrumentation has initially formed a relatively complete variety of product categories, has a certain scale of production and development capabilities of the industrial system, to become Asia outside Japan second instrument producer.

According to incomplete statistics, the annual output value of less than 5 million yuan enterprises not included in the statistics, some military enterprises and products are not included in the statistics, in 2003 the total number of our instrument production enterprise 2232, the total industrial output value of 97 billion yuan, sales income of 92 billion 100 million yuan; including medical equipment, total industrial output value and sales revenue exceeded 100 billion yuan. Among them, the total number of industrial automation instrumentation and control system of 620 enterprises, industrial output value of 28 billion 500 million yuan, sales revenue of $28 billion 200 million, accounting for the entire industry of instruments and meters, 28.5% and 29%, respectively. The total number of scientific instruments 525, industrial output value of 26 billion 300 million yuan, sales revenue of $25 billion 100 million, the data accounted for about 25% of the industry. Electronic and electrical measuring instruments total 285 enterprises, industrial output value of 14 billion 800 million yuan, sales revenue of $14 billion 700 million, respectively, accounting for the entire industry 13%, 14% and 14.6%. Other types of instruments and meters of the total number of enterprises, industrial output value and sales accounted for less than 34% of the industry.

"95", especially in the past 3 years, China's rapid development of instrumentation, the situation is very good, mainly reflected in the following areas. 1, an average annual growth rate of total output value and sales income instrument industry rate of more than 12%, in 2003 2002 year-on-year growth rate reached 26.2% and 25.4%. According to the analysis of more than 30 domestic manufacturers statistics show that in 2002 the total sales of about 1 billion 40 million yuan, total sales in 2003 increased by 40%, is expected in 2004 will continue to grow by 40%, reaching $2 billion. 2, a number of advanced technologies with the international competitiveness of products continue to emerge. Especially in the domestic industrial control system DCS level increased significantly, has undertaken 300 thousand kilowatts of generating units of 60 sets, half running well, and in the 600 thousand KW generator of new international bidding project, fully equipped with the ability of international competition. High pressure transmitter output exceeded 70 thousand Taiwan Yokogawa production company, to enter the world top 10. Scientific instruments, a number of achievements with independent intellectual property rights such as microwave plasma torch spectrometer, micro electric chromatographic system, capillary electrophoresis electrochemiluminescence detection instrument, is stepping into the international advanced level. The rapid growth of import and export trade 3, instrumentation products, 2003 import and export volume reached 12 billion 100 million US dollars, exports $2 billion 950 million, an increase of 52.6% in 2002. Export products have been included in the technical content of higher industrial control systems and precision scientific instruments. A total of 32 million dollars with the instrument analysis of 2002 China's exports of physical and chemical, only 1% of U.S. exports, while exports jumped in 2003 this instrument was $125 million, an annual increase of 291%, reaching 3.3% U.S. exports. In the low-end digital multimeter exports occupy 60% share of the world market, export countries not only limited to Asia, Africa, many products have entered the European and American markets. 4, our system of instrument enterprises has undergone tremendous changes, the rapid rise of fast development and private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, has become the main instrument industry. In 2003, the sales income of foreign-funded enterprises accounted for 40% of the industry, the whole industry profits accounted for 53.6%, followed by private enterprises, and increased investment, such as CHINT Group invested 100 million yuan into the industrial automation instrument industry, times group merger of the country's largest test machine enterprises Ji'nan test group. Control technology in Zhejiang (Group) company, 3 private enterprises in Shanghai Xinhua Control Arts Inc and Beijing Hollysys company has become the company's most powerful industrial control system in China, the annual sales income of more than 500 million yuan, but also a good momentum of development.
