The current status of machinery industry operation in 2013

I. Economic operation of China's machinery industry in January-February 2013 In January-February 2013, the total output value of the machinery industry was 2.6507 trillion yuan, an increase of 13.11% over the same period of last year. The rebound in industry efficiency was mainly due to the strong pull from the auto industry. In the January-February 2013 period, the industry realized a profit of 140.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 9.13%, of which the automobile industry increased by 19.81% year-on-year.

Agricultural machinery, instrumentation, petrochemical general machinery, basic parts, and automotive sub-sectors continued to maintain a relatively high growth rate. The growth rate of construction machinery in January-February was relatively large, but bright spots appeared in March. The growth rate of internal combustion engines has obviously risen over the previous year. The growth rate of the heavy machinery industry has dropped significantly. The sub-sectors such as electrical appliances, machine tools, cultural office machinery and food packaging machinery continue to slump. The machine tool industry continues to be extremely depressed, reflecting the prospect that the industry-wide industry outlook has not yet been expected to improve significantly in the short term.

Changes in output of 118 major products, including 73 kinds of year-on-year growth, which accounted for 61.9%; 45 types, which accounted for 38.1% (down from 43 kinds of production last year, accounting for 36%), and the number of declining varieties continued to increase, indicating that the economy has not yet Full recovery.

In January-February 2013, the total import and export volume of the machinery industry was 91.4 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year decrease of 0.32%, of which exports were 52.3 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 9.27% ​​year-on-year, and imports were 39.1 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year decrease of 10.81% and a trade surplus of 13.2 billion U.S. dollars. The increase in export delivery value was unprecedented, with a year-on-year increase of 2.87% in January-February.

The profit rate of main business income was 5.56%, a year-on-year decrease of 0.20 percentage point, and the continuous decline in profit rate was worth noting.

The growth rate of investment in fixed assets in the industry declined sharply. In January-February 2013, the machinery industry completed a total investment of 249.6 billion yuan in fixed assets, an increase of 13.31% year-on-year; the growth rate was down 23.5 percentage points year-on-year; and it was 4.42 percentage points lower than "all manufacturing industries" (17.0%) and "whole society." (21.2%) 8.6 percentage points, which is a phenomenon worthy of attention Second, the development of the machinery industry and major sub-sectors in 2013 The auto industry is expected to maintain low growth (5% to 10% growth) this year. The production and sales of the internal combustion engine industry is expected to achieve about 5% growth. The growth rate of the electrician industry is expected to be around 10%, but the power generation equipment industry will still be in the midst of new orders. It is difficult to meet the existing production capacity. The machine tool and construction machinery industry is expected to grow at around 10%. The cultural and office equipment industry is expected to be uncertain in 2013. The agricultural machinery industry benefits from the country's preferential agricultural policies and is expected to achieve about 15% growth.

It is expected that the economic speed of the machinery industry in 2013 will be slightly higher than that of 2012, but overall it is still at a relatively low level, and it is expected to continue to achieve an increase of about 10% in the whole year. Among them, the growth rate of production and sales is expected to be around 12%, the profit growth is expected to be around 8%, and the export growth is expected to be around 8%.
