The production of automobile stamping parts is a very important part of automobile manufacturing. For example, the body, frame, carriage and car body of a truck are all made of steel stamping parts. According to statistics, an average of about 1,500 stamping parts are required to manufacture an ordinary car. With China's current automobile production increasing year by year, foreign capital has entered China to set up factories. To meet the hot domestic demand and export demand at the same time, the demand for automobile stamping parts will inevitably become a good opportunity for China's stamping parts industry to enter the upgrade.

1. The prospect is gratifying

In recent years, in the field of automotive stamping parts, with the introduction of new models, the replacement of old models, and the continuous expansion of the production scale of domestic and foreign vehicles and parts, the demand has also continued to increase. Therefore, in order to obtain new supply channels, world stamping parts manufacturers with advanced technology and national stamping parts manufacturers with cost competitiveness are strengthening their respective business fields and speeding up the construction of stamping parts production system.

Due to the rapid development of domestic stamping dies and the obvious progress in technology, coupled with the low price of domestic stamping dies, in recent years, many stamping parts of some domestic joint venture brand vehicles have been purchased domestically instead of being imported in the past. At the same time, with the gradual enhancement of the international competitiveness of China's domestic automotive stamping parts industry, some foreign brand cars have begun to purchase stamping parts from my country more and more. Some OEMs in Germany and the United States have incorporated products from many Chinese stamping parts factories into their global sourcing chains. This trend has not only become clear, but with the optimization of the production technology of local enterprises, the advantages of the domestic stamping parts industry in the international market will be further highlighted.

2. Coming to Japan, both challenges and opportunities coexist

Although domestic stamping die manufacturers have great expectations for automotive stamping parts, the imbalance in the development of domestic stamping parts is also worthy of attention. Although China's automobile production is staggering, many of them also come from the capital investment and large-scale production of well-known foreign automobile brands. At the same time, stamping parts, as an important link in grasping the lifeline of the industry, have experienced regional imbalances in the progress of their development. For example, the traditional automobile towns of Guangdong in South China started later than Shanghai in East China and Changchun in North China, especially for stamping dies with the highest added value, mainly used for the manufacture of automobile panels, the current market in South China Development is almost blank.

Indeed, the development of China's auto stamping parts industry still lags behind that of advanced auto manufacturing countries. For example, in countries such as Europe and the United States, automotive stamping parts account for nearly half of the entire stamping parts industry. In contrast, only about 1/3 of domestic stamping parts are supplied to the automobile manufacturing industry, which is worth thinking about.

Although China's auto stamping parts industry has yet to improve its technology, this will not change the pattern that the global auto industry generally regards China as the preferred auto production base. GeertvanderLinden, International Account Manager of UddeholmToolAB, made it clear that China and the Czech Republic are currently the world's most popular auto production bases, and he himself is quite optimistic about China's market prospects.

3. Low cost and high quality call for cutting-edge technology

With the vigorous development of automobiles, China's automotive stamping market has shown a strong growth momentum, but China's automotive stamping parts market is mostly divided up by multinational companies in the world. Accelerating the localization of automotive stamping parts is the primary task of the automotive stamping industry. Without the low cost of domestic stamping dies, there will be no rapid development of domestic brand cars, which has been recognized by everyone, but low cost does not mean low level. While developing multiple varieties at low cost, the rapid development and quality improvement of domestic brand cars must be inseparable from the improvement of the level of domestic stamping parts. Domestic cars will not only continue to develop in the mid-to-low-end market, but also will continue to increase their market share in the mid-to-high-end market. This trend is also very obvious. This will inevitably put forward higher and higher requirements for automotive stamping parts, which is also an inevitable trend in the automotive stamping die market. Stamping parts enterprises should fully understand this trend, and rely on technological progress to keep low costs and continuously improve the quality of stamping parts.
