Evolution and Development Trend Prospect of Metal Milling Equipment

Abstract

Abstract The world is currently undergoing profound changes which have never happened within the past century. Global competition in the technology and industry fields is becoming increasingly fierce. The strategic competition of the major powers further focuses on the manufacturing industry. Developed countries such as the United States, Germany, and Japan have successively put forward strategic plans such as “re-industrialization” and “return of manufacturing industry”, aiming to seize the commanding heights of a new round of global high-end technology competition and expand international market share. Standing at the historic intersection of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and China’s accelerated high-quality development, the “14th Five-Year Plan” clearly pointed out that intelligent manufacturing is the main development trend to promote China’s manufacturing to the medium-high end of the global value chain. This reflects the importance of advanced manufacturing for national strategic layout. To better grasp the development direction of advanced manufacturing equipment, the development process and current application status of manufacturing equipment are summarized, and thereafter the characteristics of manufacturing equipment in different development stages of the manufacturing industry are analyzed. Finally, the development trend of advanced milling equipment is prospected.
