The development of large but not strong micro motor industry

Recently, the Micro Motor Branch of China Electrical Equipment Industry Association released the economic data of the micro motor industry last year. Data shows that the industry's total industrial output value, sales revenue, total profit and other indicators have maintained significant growth. Currently, China has become the world's largest micro motor manufacturing base.

Wolong Holdings Group Co., Ltd., Zhangqiu Haier Motor Co., Ltd., Zhongshan Dayang Motor Co., Ltd. and other domestic enterprises with considerable scale and strength have achieved strong comprehensive strength and good brand awareness through the transformation of business mechanisms and innovation of management systems. In recent years, many enterprises have invested heavily in technological transformation, introduced advanced manufacturing and testing equipment from abroad, and improved the quality and stability of their products. The development capability of new products has been greatly improved, and mass production capacity has been formed.

The market size is rapidly expanding

The association learned from authoritative institutions that last year 772 micro motor manufacturing enterprises employed over 200000 people, with a total industrial output value of 67.464 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.04%; Sales revenue was 65.13 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 28.23%; The export delivery value was 24.806 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 13.97%; The sales rate of industrial products reached 96.54%, the output value rate of new products was 10.02%, the export delivery value rate was 38.09%, the industrial added value rate was 25.07%, and the total asset profit margin was 6.74%. Among them, there were 104 loss making enterprises, accounting for 13.47% of the total loss, with a loss amount of 233 million yuan.

According to data provided by the General Administration of Customs, the import quantity of micro motors reached 19.87 million units, a year-on-year increase of 8.96; The total amount reached 864 million US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 16.27%. The export quantity reached 177.23 million units, a year-on-year increase of 25.46%; The total amount reached 2.24 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 41.99%

From the distribution of micro motor enterprises, coastal enterprises with strong market demand and export advantages have developed particularly rapidly; Most enterprises are concentrated in the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta, and Bohai Rim regions.

Micro motor enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region mainly focus on large-scale production of various types of micro motors used in the fields of information networks, audio-visual, household appliances, and industrial industries. Their products are mostly brushed DC motors, brushless DC motors, single-phase asynchronous motors, and plastic sealed motors, accounting for 10% of the global total of similar products

The Yangtze River Delta region is the most concentrated area in China for the production of micro motors, supporting components, and permanent magnet materials for motors, and its industrial supporting capabilities are gradually maturing.

At present, with the transfer of the international micro motor market to China, foreign-funded enterprises remain the mainstay of the domestic micro motor industry. For example, Wanbaozhi Motor Co., Ltd. is the world's largest manufacturer of micro motors, with an annual production capacity of 2 billion units. Dechang Electric is a global leader in the field of micro motors and drive subsystems, with a daily production of 3 million motors and transmissions and an annual production capacity of over 1 billion units. Among them, automotive micro motors account for 50%

In addition, the micro motor industry in Taiwan has also made significant progress, with products ranging from brushed motors to brushless spindle motors, precision stepper motors, precision servo motors, etc. The manufacturing equipment and testing instruments for producing micro motors also have a high level of expertise.

Technology is at the low-end

From the current development trend of the industry, it has market competitiveness in terms of industrial supporting facilities and comprehensive production capacity, but there is still a significant gap in technological level compared to industrialized countries.

Experts say that there are many micro motor manufacturers in China, mostly small and medium-sized enterprises, which cannot form economies of scale, and their products lack technological content, weak competitiveness, and uneven product quality. Overall, the vast majority of enterprises are still at a relatively low level in terms of production scale and product research and development.
