Novel coronavirus pneumonia is inevitable in the development of 2020 of pump and valve enterprises. Although the epidemic situation has been gradually controlled, enterprises have resumed their work in an orderly way, and the most difficult time of the epidemic has passed. However, for enterprises, the situation is still very grim. After the epidemic situation has passed the market, it has not fully recovered. It is still facing many problems, and the next is undoubtedly the critical period that has been tested.
In Yongjia County, Wenzhou City, which is the "hometown of pumps and valves in China", this kind of atmosphere is the most authentic. Here, you can see the epitome of China's pump valve industry.
In the post epidemic era, China's hometown of pumps and valves is facing a "big test"
Yongjia is an important birthplace of "Wenzhou model". After more than 40 years of development, it has formed pillar industries such as pump valve, shoes and clothing, teaching toys, button zippers, and clothing accessories.
In June 2002, China General Machinery Industry Association awarded Yongjia the brand of "home of pumps and valves in China", which made Yongjia's pump and valve industry develop rapidly on the track of industrialization, scale and specialization. At present, the pump valve industry is the largest pillar industry in Yongjia, with more than 2300 pump and valve enterprises, accounting for 30% of the country's total. In 2019, the total output value of Yongjia pump and valve industry will reach 29.2 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 13.6%. Yongjia has become the largest pump valve industry production base with the most concentrated enterprises and the most complete varieties and specifications in China. Yongjia valve, which is well-known for its resistance to low temperature and high pressure, is undergoing an unprecedented test. Affected by the novel coronavirus pneumonia, Yongjia pump and valve enterprises are facing complex situations in the sharp reduction of foreign trade orders and the intensified competition in the domestic market this year. Many Yongjia enterprises' export orders of conventional valves have been suspended or cancelled, and the order volume is only 50% of the same period last year. Many enterprises can not describe it as "life and death".
"Pump" develops new energy, leading enterprises seek innovation and change
Under heavy pressure, Yongjia pump valve industry breaks through with "wisdom" and "tailor-made" for each order. Leading enterprises focus on scientific research, seize the capacity gap of overseas rivals, accelerate import substitution, and seize the market of petrochemical, nuclear and other high-end industrial fields; small and medium-sized enterprises intelligently build cloud, build flexible production lines, and customize valves in small batch and multi specifications, and find a large market in small orders.
In the first three months of this year, the number of intelligent technical transformation projects registered by Yongjia pump and valve enterprises increased by 30% year-on-year, and the added value of pump and valve industry in March increased by 14% month on month. In the "breakthrough" journey, the transformation and upgrading of the pump valve industry has become more and more clear.
"Pulse" valve industry pain point, scientific and technological innovation to achieve industrial "overtaking on the curve"
