How long can Chinese Labor and Raw Material Advantage of Valve Last?


Affected by raw material and labor costs and other factors, in recent years China's valve industry rapidly develop in the international market. Exports and expanding market share has gradually become an important industry base of production and the main sales market. Many valve companies in China, with small size, lack of core competitiveness, difficult to influence in the international market, largely restricted to the healthy development of the valve industry.

At present, China's valve industry is labor-intensive industries, mainly depend on the amount. In order to have long-term development, China's valve industry must adjust and optimize industrial structure. It is necessary to continue to full play to the advantages of traditional valve industry, such as globe valve, ball valve, control valve, but also vigorously develop the knowledge, technology-intensive industries and emerging industries to boost the upgrade of the valve industry. Only in this way can China shorten the gap between the valve industry in China and developed countries as soon as possible.

In recent years, the relief valve market is increasingly competitive. Excessive competition in the market is difficult for enterprises to get healthy and orderly development. Innovation is not only for pursuing high value-added products to get rid of the marginal profit of the relief valve industry, but also can give enterprise new economic growth point. To maintain their survival and development, enterprises are necessary to carry out a series of innovative development of a major leading role and meet the needs of the market high-tech for industrial development to provide strong support. Change the manufacturing into creates.

Companies should adhere to the concept of innovation. In product development and technological innovation aspects, companies positively joint with research institutes, colleges and universities to develop new products, efforts to develop domestic and foreign markets. Thereby these enterprises can overcome the quantitative growth, enhance product quality, and improve the added value of the products, focus on building their own brands to enhance the position of the valve company in China in the global division of labor, improve the ability to resist risks with their own bargaining power, thus enhancing the sustainable development of the valve industry competitiveness.

Government Support And Change Of The Market Environment Means What For Valve Industry?

China is one of the world’s fastest developed countries in valve market. Meanwhile there are some inevitable immature condition in updating and expanding when participating in the whole world competition. Although there are numerous constraints, but the market of China's valve market still has broad prospects, mainly due to policy support and the change of market environment.
1, the support of national policy
With the country accelerate the revitalization of equipment manufacturing step by step, the common basis of the development of the manufacturing industry will be further focused support.
The valve industry belongs to the equipment manufacturing industry. Equipment manufacturing is a strategic industry providing technical equipment for the different sectors of the national economy. It is closely related to capital-intensive technology, industrial upgrading, an important guarantee for technological progress and comprehensive national strength of the concentrated expression. Therefore, the state attaches great importance to the development of equipment manufacturing industry by taking policy measures to encourage and support over a longer period.
2, the strong market demand for valve products
The state-owned economic stable and sustained development and the gradual expansion of investment in fixed assets are advantage of the valve market demand. Especially several centuries’ construction of natural gas and electric power requires a lot of matched valve products such as pressure relief valve and butterfly valve. In addition, China is facing the era of industrialization, the petrochemical industry, power sector, metallurgy sector, chemical industry and urban construction will enhance the demand for valve products. For example, during the Eleventh Five period, the power industry required in large and medium-sized start projects for the prediction of the coal units totaled: Valve total demand of 153,000 tons, with an annual demand of 30,600 tons; valve of the total demand amount of 3.96 billion Yuan, the annual demand a $ 792 million Yuan.
3, After the accession to the WTO, with international trade threshold reduced as well as the adjustment of product structure in developed countries, China is becoming the world's largest factory, the manufacture of valve products are facing more room for development.
Therefore, as long as the companies can seize opportunities, strengthen R & D capability and constantly improve the technological content of products and product quality, there will be able to take the initiative in a broad market competition.

The Valve Industry: New Standards and Technology Development for Energy Saving


In the process of ever-expanding, Chinese valve industry develop its new standards and new technology. The national policy also supports the development of industrial valves, especially strengthen standards and research to guide research and advanced technology backbone enterprises turning independent innovation achievements into standards, and promote new technologies, new processes developments. Reduce energy consumption by vigorously developing small flow resistance and small-loss valve products.

1, Promote the development of new technologies, new processes
Through the introduction of research and development Intelligent valve electric devices which are new products abroad, China has mastered the technology and developed it used in globe valve, ball valves at the beginning of this century.
Transform number of new products, new technologies into the standards to reduce costs and improve efficiency, to optimize the product features. Then new products and new technologies quickly were recognized by the market, promoting the progress of the industry.

2, Enhance the standard of energy saving, new materials, and promote industrial structure adjustment
Natural resources are limited, so the standards of energy-saving, water-saving and material-saving aspects is one of the development direction of the valve standard. Enterprise must accelerate the elimination of low efficiency and high energy consumption products but also adjust the industrial structure, promote the development and application of new technologies and new products. About how to save materials, the focus is new materials instead of metal materials to achieve the purpose of saving steel and precious metals.

New ceramic valve used by a new ceramic material to make the valve sealing components and wearing parts which can improve the wear resistance, corrosion protection and sealing of the valve products, greatly extending the life of the valve. Its wide range of ceramic raw materials, low cost features can save a lot of metal materials and rare mineral resources. Ceramic valves possess of wear resistance, good sealing, can minimize leakage, playing a positive role in promoting environmental protection.

In power-saving aspect, by selection of low-power low-noise motor, as well as the improvement of the structure of the electrical device, control the energy consumption of electrical devices.

3, Actively participate in international standards to speed up the conversion of the valve of international standards.
The world has entered a period of economic globalization. The inevitable trend of economic globalization is international standards. At the same time, China valve industry is striving for building standards into international standards to achieve international standards

4, Protect the equipment and personnel safety
Many valves are used in the pressure pipe, so the security is vital. Safety valve incidents caused by the valve products are mainly two reasons. First, the product did not achieve the standards, such as the shell wall thickness requirements, the welded junction of the penetrate inspection requirements, material requirements. Another reason is inappropriate installation. Maximize the protection of equipment and personnel security, safety requirements and standards and revision of valve safety valve standards will be a focus of future work.
