Localization of testing machines helps “Made in China” move toward “Made in China”
In recent years, with the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry, the localization process of testing machines, as the core equipment for industrial product quality testing, has attracted much attention. The localization of testing machines is not only a reflection of technological independence and controllability, but also a key step in promoting "Made in China" to "Precision Made in China". This article will analyze the current situation, challenges and future trends of localization of testing machines based on the hot topics and hot content on the Internet in the past 10 days.
1. Current status of localization of testing machines

Testing machines are widely used in materials mechanics, automobile manufacturing, aerospace and other fields, and their performance is directly related to product quality and safety. In the past, the high-end testing machine market has long been monopolized by European and American brands, but in recent years, domestic testing machines have made significant breakthroughs in technology, performance and service.
| field | localization rate | Major domestic manufacturers |
|---|---|---|
| Material testing machine | 65% | Changchun Testing Machine Research Institute, Shanghai Hualong |
| Environmental testing machine | 50% | Guangdong Hongzhan, Chongqing Star |
| Fatigue testing machine | 40% | Jinan Jinjin, Suzhou Dongling |
As can be seen from the table, the localization rate of material testing machines is relatively high, while the localization of high-end equipment such as fatigue testing machines still has room for improvement.
2. Challenges of localization of testing machines
Although domestic testing machines have made great progress, they still face the following challenges:
1.Core technology bottlenecks: Some high-end testing machines still rely on imports for core components such as sensors and control systems, and the localization rate is low.
2.Lack of brand awareness: Many users have doubts about the performance and stability of domestic testing machines and prefer to choose imported brands.
3.Market competition is fierce: International brands are further squeezing the market space of domestic testing machines through price cuts and localized production.
3. The future trend of localization of testing machines
With policy support and technological progress, the localization of testing machines will usher in the following opportunities:
1.policy support: The national “14th Five-Year Plan” clearly proposes to accelerate the localization of high-end testing equipment. As one of the key areas, testing machines will receive more financial and policy support.
2.technological innovation: Domestic manufacturers are increasing investment in R&D and making breakthroughs in core technologies. For example, the 2,000-ton electro-hydraulic servo testing machine recently released by Changchun Testing Machine Research Institute has filled a domestic gap.
3.Market demand grows: With the rise of emerging industries such as new energy vehicles and semiconductors, the demand for high-performance testing machines will continue to increase, providing a broad market for domestic manufacturers.
| time | hot events | Influence |
|---|---|---|
| 2023-10-15 | Changchun Testing Machine Research Institute releases 2000-ton electro-hydraulic servo testing machine | Break the foreign monopoly and increase the high-end market share of domestic testing machines |
| 2023-10-18 | Guangdong Hongzhan won the bid for an environmental testing machine project for a car company | Domestic testing machines gain recognition in the automotive field |
| 2023-10-20 | The National Development and Reform Commission released the "Action Plan for Localization and Substitution of High-end Testing Equipment" | Provide policy support for the localization of testing machines |
4. Conclusion
The localization of testing machines is an important link between "Made in China" and "Made in China". Despite facing many challenges, with technological advancement, policy support and increasing market recognition, domestic testing machines are expected to achieve greater breakthroughs in the high-end field. In the future, domestic testing machine manufacturers should continue to strengthen core technology research, improve product quality and service levels, and provide solid support for the high-quality development of China's manufacturing industry.
