How can China's printing and dyeing machinery break through the predicament and maintain its growth momentum?

Since the beginning of this year, the performance of the domestic textile machinery industry has improved significantly. The main business income and total profit have shown double-digit growth, and the import and export of textile machinery products have achieved growth. According to the statistics of China Textile Machinery Association, from January to August this year, the main business income of the textile machinery industry reached 83.521 billion yuan, an increase of 12.46%; the total import of textile machinery reached 2.252 billion US dollars, an increase of 32.61%, and the total export volume reached 2.17 billion. The US dollar grew by 6.48% year-on-year. From January to August, the import of finishing machinery after printing and dyeing was 307 million US dollars, up 33.81% year-on-year; the export of finishing machinery after printing and dyeing was 404 million US dollars, up 6.00% year-on-year.

In recent years, the automation level, energy saving and emission reduction effects and manufacturing quality of domestic printing and dyeing equipment have steadily improved. Many new types of CNC printing and dyeing equipment have reached the international advanced level, and the market share has reached more than 85%. The combination of digital inkjet printing machines and cutting-edge technologies such as big data, cloud computing and Internet+ has connected clothing design and production with fabric production, changing the lengthy process of traditional clothing production and realizing personalized clothing customization.

Despite the significant improvement in the level of domestic printing and dyeing equipment, the industry still faces some difficulties. If it is restricted by factors such as process flow, additives, dyes, etc., domestic high-efficiency and short-flow printing and dyeing equipments are slow to develop and the process route is long; some printing and dyeing machinery products have low operational stability and durability, and the primary success rate is low, resulting in energy. Waste has increased environmental pollution.

Therefore, in order to standardize the industry order and realize the re-upgrading of the domestic printing and dyeing equipment industry, environmental protection, energy conservation, digital monitoring and intelligentization should become the top priority of the development of printing and dyeing machinery.

Specifically, the development trend of printing and dyeing machinery technology and products is reflected in the following aspects: in the development of continuous printing and dyeing machinery process configuration, the development of short process equipment and process development (such as wet short steaming equipment); tenter setting machine equipped with digital Energy consumption monitoring system to reduce heat loss in terms of exhaust emissions; wet processing equipment will be generally equipped with wastewater filtration and reuse, waste heat recovery equipment, and the shaping machine is equipped with exhaust gas waste heat recovery and purification treatment equipment to maximize the use of waste heat and reduce production energy consumption; Promote automatic distribution technology and products for dyes and auxiliaries to reduce chemical pollution.

In general, the improvement of manufacturing quality, process adaptability and success rate has always been the development goal of printing and dyeing machinery. Green environmental protection is the main line of development of printing and dyeing machinery. The application of numerical control and intelligent technology will effectively enhance the ability of traditional machinery, and even completely change the operation and operation mode. The advancement of dyeing materials and printing and dyeing process will determine the future of printing and dyeing process, and may suddenly change the development of printing and dyeing machinery. direction.
