CCTV News:“ Industrial mother machine; It is a machine for manufacturing machines and an important support for the construction of a modern industrial system. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology launched the 2025 initiative in Wuhan, Hubei on July 23; Industrial mother machine+” The "Hundred Rows, Ten Thousand Enterprises' Production and Demand Matching Activity" will last for three years from last year until the end of 2027.

It is understood that this year's; Industrial mother machine+” The production side of the activity includes three categories: subtractive manufacturing, equal material manufacturing, and additive manufacturing, involving more than 140 domestic key enterprises and over 200 innovative products. The demand side includes industries such as new energy vehicles, aerospace, rail transit, and shipbuilding.

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stated that industrial mother machines are; The Tool of Manufacturing; And“ The foundation of self-improvement; It is a strategic and fundamental industry related to national security and development. Next, we will promote the rapid development of industrial mother machines towards high-end, intelligent, and composite industries. Emerging industries such as new energy vehicles, humanoid robots, and low altitude economy will also put forward new demands for industrial mother machines, bringing new opportunities for industrial development.

Qu Guochun, Director of the Equipment Industry Development Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, introduced that in the past two years; Industrial mother machine+” Accelerate the promotion of industrial mother machines from; Can be used; To“ Durable” Moving on to“ Easy to use” Add new momentum to the high-quality development of the industry. More than 20 matchmaking activities were organized nationwide, with active local events and clusters of local events focusing on demand and forming a chain. A large number of enterprises were successfully matched to achieve precise matchmaking, and nearly a hundred cooperation projects were signed and implemented.

“ Industrial mother machine+” In action: Pair up to tackle key issues and promote breakthroughs in industrial mother machine technology

In recent years, a large number of domestically produced industrial mother machine products have penetrated into various industries in China, focusing on typical scenarios such as aerospace, new energy vehicles, and ships. In Hubei, a collaborative research and development project focused on the precision machining needs of aircraft engines has yielded results.

At the Huagong Laser Manufacturing Base in Wuhan, Hubei, engineers are assembling and debugging a new equipment. As the first domestic device; Complex surface six axis laser micro hole processing equipment; This device has been successfully applied in the field of engine processing and manufacturing for the domestically produced C919 aircraft.

The smooth breakthrough of technology comes from the collaborative cooperation between the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. As a leading enterprise in the field of industrial mother machines, Huagong Laser targets the processing and manufacturing needs of the domestic commercial aerospace industry, collaborates with enterprises and universities related to core components, and carries out an industrial collaborative research and development.

At present, Hubei is building a collaborative R&D mechanism for the industrial chain, and a batch of industry's first industrial mother machine products are being born one after another. In April of this year, at the China International Machine Tool Show held in Beijing, including the new equipment of Huagong Laser, three“ Made in Hubei; World class iconic industrial mother machine products are launched. At present, Hubei still regards the industrial mother machine industry as a“ 51020” One of the important billion dollar industries in advanced manufacturing clusters, it provides extraordinary support and breakthrough development, accelerating the construction of a world-class industrial mother machine industry highland.

“ Industrial mother machine+” In action: Multiple measures to ensure the security and stability of the industrial and supply chains

Not only through production and demand matching activities, but also relevant officials from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology have stated that China will take multiple measures to ensure the security and stability of the industrial mother machine supply chain.

In terms of organizing and implementing major special projects, China will support key user enterprises and industrial mother machine enterprises to serve as; Dual Chain Master; Drive the iterative improvement of hosts and components with demand. Strengthen the collaborative research and development of high-end host equipment, high-end CNC systems, key functional components, and common technologies. In addition, accelerate the deep integration of new generation information technologies such as artificial intelligence and manufacturing technology, and accelerate the development of intelligent machine tools.  

At present, the field of industrial mother machines in China has emerged with specialized, refined, and innovative features; Little Giant; There are over 1000 enterprises and more than 30 individual champions in the manufacturing industry. In addition, China has preliminarily explored a development path for the industrial mother machine industry that is suitable for China's national conditions. Next, we will continue to promote the use of open scenarios for application enterprises and promote their adoption; Jointly tackling, jointly improving, and jointly benefiting; Mode, accelerate the iteration of domestic industrial mother machine applications.
