In 2008, Taiwan’s machine tool industry imports fell by 40%, and exports slowed down.

From January to December 2008, exports from Taiwan increased by 5.9% over the same period of the previous year, indicating that export growth has slowed down. Imports grew by 39.9%, indicating a decline in demand for equipment in the high-tech industry.

Taiwan's machine tool industry was affected by moderate growth in exports in 2007, resulting in smooth production and orders throughout the year. The production value in 2007 was initially estimated to increase by about 15% from the previous year.
In particular, in the last quarter of 2007, the orders were significantly increased. Both the domestic demand market and the export orders increased compared with the same period last year. It is estimated that the production value in 2007 will grow by about 15% compared with the previous year, that is, the estimated production value has reached NT$144 billion, and the export value reached NT$113.8 billion, up 18.2% from the previous year. Based on the statistics of customs import and export from January to December 2008, the current situation of the production and sales of the Taiwan machine tool industry in 2008 is as follows:

1. Analysis of Taiwan's machine tool export According to customs export statistics, the total export value of Taiwan's machine tools reached US$3.72 billion in 2008, up 5.9% from the same period of the previous year, and the export situation increased moderately. Among them, the cutting machine tool was 2.96 billion US dollars, up 7.4% over the same period of last year. The export value of forming machine tools was US$ 755.57 million, a year-on-year increase of 0.5%. (China Metal Processing Online Report)

(1) Export situation of machine tool products If the growth analysis of the cutting machine type is carried out, the integrated processing machine will grow by 3.9%, the lathe type will grow by 22.5%, the grinding machine type will grow by 4.1%, and the milling and boring machine will grow by 1.1%. In the part of the forming machine, the forging and punching machinery grew by 1.7% compared with the previous year, and other forming machine tools grew by 10.6%.
According to the export statistics analysis in the month of December, the monthly growth was 37.2% compared with the previous year. Among them, the export of integrated processing machine in December 2008 was 42.6% lower than that of the same month of the previous year. The lathes grew by 24.8% compared with the same month of the previous year. The drill-boring and milling machines grew by 34.0% compared with the same month of the previous year, and the grinding machine grew negatively by 39.4%. Non-traditional processing machines such as processing machines grew by 42.7%, while sawing machines and gear machinery grew by 34.0%. Forging and punching machinery negative growth of 41.0%, other forming tools negative growth of 37.5%.

(2) For the export of machine tools, if the country is ranked according to the export volume, the mainland and Hong Kong rank first, with an export value of 1.116 billion US dollars, accounting for 30.0% of the total exports, a negative growth of 14.2% over the same period of last year, but 12 The monthly export to the mainland market was US$73.09 million, a decrease of 47.2% from the same month of the previous year. The monthly export to the mainland in December decreased by US$65.25 million compared with the previous year, accounting for 48% of the total export reduction of US$136.44 million in December. The United States ranked second with an amount of US$338.6 million, accounting for 9.1% of exports and a negative growth of 0.9% from the same period last year. Germany jumped to third place with an amount of US$22.09 million, accounting for 6.0%, and a 45.2% increase over the same period last year.
Yu Yixu is a negative growth of 3.3% in Turkey, 93% in Brazil, 27.3% in Italy, 0.2% in the Netherlands, 38.2% in India, 3.2% in Thailand, 1.2% in Korea, 55.1% in Vietnam and 2.5% in Malaysia. The UK is 6.8%, Japan is 10.3%, and Indonesia is 39.6%.

2. Analysis of Taiwan's machine tool imports According to customs import statistics, the import value of Taiwan's machine tools reached US$1.573 billion in 2008, a negative growth of 39.9% over the same period of the previous year. Among them, the import value of cutting machine tools was 1.42 billion US dollars, a negative growth of 42.0% over the same period of last year. The import value of forming machine tools was US$107.97 million, a year-on-year increase of 11.2%.

(1) Imports of machine tools are gradually reduced. The main reason for the gradual decrease in imports is the high-tech industry in 2006 and 2007. The demand for imported equipment is booming. In 2008, the main imported machine tools were non-traditional processing machine tools. 48.4%, integrated processing machine growth of 15.5%, lathe negative growth of 14.2%, boring and milling machine negative growth of 2.2%, grinding machine growth of 8.1%, etc., high-tech industrial processing machinery began to rebound sharply in 2006 and 2007, but in 2008 significantly Sliding down.
The import value of forming machine tools belongs to the forging and punching machine, which grew by 17.9% compared with the previous year, while other forming machine tools grew by 15.6%. According to the above import data, traditional industries have maintained moderate growth in import demand in recent years, such as precision components and metal products processing industries. (China Metal Processing Online Report) and emerging high-tech industries such as semiconductor, information, electronics, telecommunications, optoelectronics and other industries in 2003 and 2004 demand, and in 2005, it showed a sharp decline, 2006 and 2007 The year has rebounded sharply, but it has decreased sharply in 2008.

(2) Sources of imported machine tools Another major source of imported machine tools in Taiwan, Japan’s first import in 2008 reached US$931.4 million, accounting for 60.6%, a negative growth of 20.0% over the same period last year. The second US import value was US$209.73 million, accounting for 19.5%, a negative growth of 69.8% over the same period last year. Germany ranked third in terms of imports of US$11.97 million, accounting for 6.6%, up 43.5% from the same period last year. For the source of imports in 2008, please refer to Table 4 below.

3. Summary In general, the forecast of the world's major machine tool producing countries in 2008 was unstable. According to the preliminary data collected, including the United States and Japan, their forecasts were slightly lower than the previous year. Japan JMTBA Working Machinery Industry Association surveyed January-December 2008, the total number of machine tools orders totaled 13.3 billion yen, a year-on-year growth of 18.2%, while Japan's December 2008 single-month growth of 71.8% compared with the same month of the previous year. . (China Metal Processing Online Report) Therefore, the major producers of tool machines in Asia and North America believe that production and exports in 2008 will be moderately reduced from the previous year. Taiwanese manufacturers have achieved very good results in 2007. Many industries have indicated that demand in the first half of 2008 is still growing slightly. The opportunities for orders in Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, India, North America, Europe, Eastern Europe and South America are still large.

After entering the global financial tsunami in the fourth quarter of 2008, the machine tool industry has gradually experienced a decline in growth power and a sharp decrease in orders from the same period of last year. The industry is gradually adjusting the pace of shipments, expecting the industry to Fully grasp the opportunity of this global challenge, launch new products and increase added value. Entering the problems faced by the industry in 2009, the main reason is that the New Taiwan dollar has fluctuated sharply against the US dollar. Han Hao has depreciated by about 40% against the US dollar, and the prices of steel and castings are too high, and the export orders have shrunk dramatically.
