Japan, after the United States and Germany, is the third country in the world to establish a machine tool industry, manufacturing, and industrialization. In 1889, the construction of the Chibei Iron Works marked the birth of the first machine tool. With machine tools as the main industry, on this basis, the steel, automobile, shipbuilding, electronics and nuclear power industries have been vigorously developed. With a large number of talents, proper management, quality standards and the most important innovation, it has finally broken through various key technical foundations and parts configuration. Japan's machine tool technology has become a world-class level almost overnight.

Japanese international economics parent Tanikawa Tanikawa, who published an article entitled "China's future depends on Japan," said: "As long as we carefully analyze China's reality, I still believe that China's future is in the hands of Japan and the United States."
The article by Hasegawa Kyotaro writes that China's economic development is subject to Japan, mainly because of two points: First, Japanese companies can provide China with high-quality products that are indispensable to China's industry; second, Japan has excellent technical strength and to ensure A huge investment in research and development due to technological advantages.
According to the article, in the unprecedented construction boom in China, the average annual use time of construction machinery is as high as 3,000 hours. Only Japanese-made machinery can withstand such consumption. The average annual working time of machine tools for producing auto parts in China is as high as 3,500 hours. Only the machine tools produced in Japan can guarantee the performance for five consecutive years. "Without Japan's machine tools, China's auto industry will be difficult to move."
The article also uses steel as an example to illustrate China's dependence on Japan. The quality of steel sheets for automobiles produced in Japan is the highest in the world. There is no market for cars without such steel plates. “Without the support of Japanese steel, Chinese auto manufacturers cannot survive”; the export price of H steel for construction is higher than that of Japan. The domestic market is 20% higher, but the Chinese have to buy it. "Because there is no such steel, Chinese construction companies cannot guarantee the safety of the high-rise building skeleton."
The article pointed out that according to statistics in 2011, Japan's annual patent exports amounted to 1.1 trillion yen. “Those countries that do not have these technologies cannot achieve economic growth without purchasing Japanese technology.”
The article does not use too much ink to analyze the dependence of the Chinese economy on the United States. It only mentions that the goods that account for 80% of China’s exports to the United States are made by American companies that have entered China; as long as the United States cuts off China to the United States. With the export channels of consumer goods, it is difficult for China to maintain its economic growth.
Hasegawa Kyotaro predicted: "China's dependence on Japan will only grow stronger and will not be weakened." This means that "Japan is increasingly capable of controlling China."
Hasegawa’s article, shocking the country, is irritating. These words sound harsh, but it deserves our vigilance, reflection and reflection. Should we ask: "How can we master the future of a big country in Japan and the United States? Hands?"
"The problem of autonomy of high-end CNC machine tools has caught the throat of China."
The main reason is “the autonomy of high-end CNC machine tools, which has caught the throat of China's advanced manufacturing industry.” For example, the high-end CNC systems and functional components of CNC machine tools in China still rely mainly on imports. In 2012, the domestic self-sufficiency rate of high-end systems was less than 5%, and about 95% relied on imports. Among them, Japan is the main source of imports, accounting for about one-third.
The car drove off the factory line. The huge machines that are used to machine parts and assemble cars are machine tools. Machine tools are also called machine tools. Marx once said that the machine tool was the starting point of the industrial revolution of the eighteenth century.
Since 2002, China has become the largest consumer and the largest importer of machine tools for more than a decade, and the machine tool trade deficit is still several billion yuan. In 2009, the world was still in the panic after the bubble burst, and China won two consecutive "world firsts." First, the production of automobiles reached 13.7 million. This "world's first" is generally considered to be a sign of entering the industrial powers. Second, China's machine tool industry has completed a total output value of 401.4 billion yuan, becoming the world's largest machine tool producer for the first time.
The industry has said that Chinese manufacturing is a "processed product", made in Germany or made in Japan, and is known as a "manufacturing factory." The implication is that the advanced and backward industrialization level depends on the production capacity of the industrial "master machine" of the machine tool. Who is the leader?
A few years ago, a Chinese home appliance company CEO visited the German machine tool factory and felt: China is made like a "herbivore", eating grass, squeezing milk, subsidizing the world with cheap products only; those "manufacturing factories" The country is a "carnivore". It eats steel and spits out machines. People rely on high-tech, high value-added equipment to occupy the world.
A huge tragedy is that although China's industry has huge production capacity, it can't actually "arm itself."
“The machine CNC system and key functional components lack core technology”
Wu Bolin, executive vice president of the former China Machine Tool Industry Association, said: "The import of high-end CNC systems and functional components has caused an increase in manufacturing costs in China, which undoubtedly seriously affected the profitability of enterprises, but also related to The adjustment of industrial structure, in the entire machine tool industry chain, the invention of the CNC system and functional components for the whole machine is obviously behind." Wu Bolin said that from the above explanation, China has been in the machine tool host for nearly ten years. The rapid development has made remarkable progress, but in terms of details, such as functional components, CNC systems, etc., the progress is not particularly obvious. This backward status directly affects the serious defects of the industrial structure. To a large extent, it has affected the space and sustainability of the further development of high-end CNC technology.
A large part of the core technology of machine tool products is concentrated on the CNC system and key functional components. There is no independent advanced functional components and numerical control system. It can be said that there is a lack of core technology. And some of our high-end CNC machine tools have become a combination of high-end CNC systems and functional components in the West, which is the main reason why the price of high-end CNC machine tools of independent brands is higher than that of imported brands. Wu Bolin It is pointed out that if the industrial structure of Chinese machine tools is not fundamentally resolved, it will seriously restrict the overall level of the CNC machine tool industry.
"Without Japanese machine tools, can China really make even rifles?"

Some people on the Internet have advocated an argument that China’s departure from Japan’s high-precision machine tools will not create firearms. Military commentator Gu Huoping feels that this argument is not a ulterior motive, or a white that knows nothing about ordnance knowledge.
When China's production is popular in the north and south of China and is widely used in China, there is no Japanese high-precision machine tool. The Hanyang Arsenal, founded by Zhang Zhidong, began to produce “Hanyang Made” in 1896. In 1899, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau also began producing “Hanyang Made” rifles. Until 1944, the “Hanyang Made” rifle was produced in China for nearly 50 years. It was the lightest weapon that produced the longest time in China at that time.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the state invested a great deal of force in supporting the development of the weapons industry, reforming and building new arsenals, establishing the industrial infrastructure of weapons, setting up specialized institutions of weapons and specialized personnel, and setting up research institutions to carry out Case study. After a long period of hard work, our rifles have developed from scratch and from small to large. So far, China has already reached the world's advanced level of 5.8 mm gun family, indicating that China's rifle has developed to a new stage. In this long historical period, China and Japan have not established diplomatic relations. It is even more ridiculous to want to get high-precision machine tools from Japan. During this long period of time, Chinese people are using fire sticks to defend them. Own country?
However, it is undeniable that Japan's high-precision machine tools are what we want to develop advanced weapons and equipment. According to military commentator Gu Huoping, Japan's FURUNO, KODEN and other products control the market share of China's marine navigation radar, which is used by almost everyone, even in Chinese submarines. The shadow. This is because the current domestic components are still relatively large compared to Japan, and the service life and effects are slightly inferior.
According to military commentator Gu Huoping, this is more obvious in high-precision CNC machine tools. Although China's CNC machine tools are currently in a rapid upgrading stage, they have been developed in the fields of aviation, aerospace, automobiles, ships and power generation equipment in recent years. There are more than 100 varieties of high-end CNC machine tools, some of which have reached the world's advanced level, but overall there is a big gap compared with foreign advanced machine tool manufacturers, especially compared with German and Japanese technology. In 2015, four of the top ten Japanese high-end CNC machine tool manufacturers, Mazak Mazak, Tiantian Co., Ltd., Japan FANUC and Otsuka Okuma, were ranked higher.
Today's China is not China 50 years ago, nor China 20 years ago. We already have a very good material, technical and financial basis. As long as we have the spirit of self-reliance and self-improvement, we will come up with the development of the "two bombs and one star" and the "Shenzhou spacecraft" in the past. I believe that many problems can be overcome.
