Made in China 2025 focus on Shanghai 2018PTC ASIA

http://www.ptc-asia.com/index.php?lang=en

PTC ASIA, as the world's largest international professional transmission exhibition, is the most important display window of transmission and control technology. It attracts and brings together international well-known enterprises, innovative small and medium-sized enterprises and entrepreneurial enterprises, focusing on the theme of the industry and expounding the importance of power transmission and control technology for future production and application. PTC hydraulic exhibition aims to build intelligent upgrading platform for global exhibitors and buyers.



Industrial 4.0 technology brings new product development cycles, improves manufacturing efficiency and productivity, and reduces company costs. Given its capital-intensive nature, more and more advanced manufacturing economies are shifting their production resources from cheap labor-intensive countries. This is a paradigm shift that will lead to high-paying, high-value-added manufacturing jobs in the United States, provided we have the talent and skills to support it. Germany is not the only industrial country dedicated to the implementation of industrial 4. China is now implementing the "China 2025" plan based on the "industrial 4" model.

“As the core of a new round of industrial revolution, intelligent manufacturing is the main direction to realize ‘Made in China 2025’ and transform the nation from a big manufacturing country to a powerful one.” Gary Liu, Managing Director of Hannover Milano Fairs China Ltd. said, “Following the pace of the national strategy, our seven industrial shows focus on intelligent manufacturing and display smart applications, providing ideal platforms for global enterprises to improve quality, enhance efficiency, transform and upgrade.”



Human-robot collaboration is the wave of the future: Humans and robots working seamlessly alongside each other are still a ways off, but development is well underway on these so-called “cobots.” "Technology is not about competing with us humans, it's about assisting us. That is the core message conveyed by this trade fair, which has again underscored Hannover's reputation as a global hotspot for the digital transformation of industry," said Dr. Jochen Köckler, chairman of the managing board at Deutsche Messe, at the close of Hannover Messe. "The focus here has clearly been on the human element: We're the ones making the decisions and setting the course. The interaction of humans with machines and IT adds up to a huge competitive gain across manufacturing, logistics and the energy industry."

Taking place at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC) It ranks as the most important showcase for Hydraulic Exhibitionn and Electric drive Exhibition in Asia and, every year, is a magnet for international market leaders, innovative SMEs, start-ups, as well as for more than 80,000 visitors. After over 20 years of successful performance, The yearly growth in both Transmission Exhibition numbers and show space has proved PTC ASIA the key platform for basic parts trading of Asian markets. At a time of economic globalization, in which China’s booming demands in industry import and export have already got strong impetus, global purchasing is also taking the high road to more efficient trading. PTC ASIA is what you CANNOT afford to miss!



As China promotes the "one belt and one way" construction, it has brought a broad overseas market for the powertrain industry. Enterprises actively expand international business, strengthen the layout of the countries along the route, and achieve remarkable results.

Is Factory Consolidation Accelerating in China?

BY RENAUD ANJORAN
I had an interesting discussion last week about one of the mega-trends I see happening in the Chinese Manufacturing sector — the consolidation of the manufacturing sector, from many players of all sizes to a few large players.
Several factors, most of which act in an inter-related manner, are driving this trend. Let’s look at the major factors.

1. Competitive forces

Competition drives inefficient players out of the market. With Alibaba.com, 1688.com, and other directories, sending an RFQ and comparing prices is a child’s game.
The average Chinese factory is so inefficient in its use of labor (no training and low productivity) and capital (bloated inventory, failed automation projects…), I expect only half of them to survive in the next 10 years.
I might be wrong if the general economic climate remains rosy. But, as soon as a recession hits, many companies close.

2. Compliance requirements, from export customers’ sides

The European Union, the USA, Canada, and other advanced economies have been setting stricter standards. And it represents a cost that the importer ‘pushes up the supply chain’ to the manufacturer.
Here is what an executive of Hasbro recently said at a conference:
“It takes 1 million USD in sales just to pay for compliance, let alone for the fees themselves.”

3. Compliance requirements, from Beijing’s side

Air and water pollution have reached a level that is no longer tolerable to the general Chinese population. The central government has set up inspection teams that go into factories, area by area, and catches highly-polluting operations. Some get warned and fined, and others are immediately closed.
These inspections, coupled with ever-higher environmental standards, have forced many small operators to withdraw from the market. For example, in surface treatment processes (plating, anodizing, etc.), a typical small factory can’t justify the investment in the necessary water treatment equipment.
Who stays open? Larger facilities that can make that type of investment.

4. The race to over-capacity

As Jack Perkowsky wrote, “it’s a fact of life: economic forces within China tend to create overcapacity in every industry.”
This is not a new problem. The New York Times wrote this in 2012 about the steel industry:
An obsession with size and technological advances has saddled Chinese steel mills with a surfeit of high-end capacity and the equivalent of $400 billion in debt, leading to a drain on profits.
and
Excess capacity is projected at 110 million tons this year, about 14 percent of total capacity. That will mean that margins, which were already thin in 2011 at 3 percent, will continue to be squeezed.
It has happened, or is going to happen, in most industrial sectors in China. And what is Beijing’s typical response, in order to prevent bankruptcies and mass layoffs? Push the players to mergers & acquisitions. Which leads us to the next point…

5. Government policy

have at least one national champion in each promising industry – for example, massive consolidation was forced upon the solar panel industry, as this article from 2015 relates:
China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has issued further government guidelines on the need for a major consolidation of PV manufacturing companies.
MIIT has issued guidance over the last few years on the need for restructuring the sector due to overcapacity notably in the number of polysilicon producers, leading to instructions over wafer, cell and module production consolidation.
The same New York Times article from 2012 analyzed this issue in the steel industry:
Beijing has tried to address problems in the steel sector — which accounts for 3 percent to 4 percent of gross domestic product — by forcing state-owned mills to consolidate or to migrate toward more complex, higher-value goods.
If there is one solution the country has not pushed, it is allowing the worst performers in the steel sector to go out of business.

Or will there always be an influx of new entrants??

Will this happen in every sector? Probably not. A new manufacturer can appear and start making a relatively simple product that does not cause much safety- or environment-related concerns. This will probably always be true.
Jack Perkowsky points to this as a China specificity:
Outside of China, rising quality and technology requirements and the forces of competition have reduced the numbers of companies making most products to a handful of global players. Yet, hundreds of companies may be making the same or similar products in China.
What do you think?

Investing in an Injection Mold: What Is Best Practice in China?

BY RENAUD ANJORAN
Many importers are puzzled. They ask quotations for a plastic part, and Chinese suppliers quote wildly different amounts for the injection mold.
One reason, obviously, is the nature of the mold:
  • Is it in hard metal (e.g. H13 steel), ready to make hundreds of thousands of pieces? Or in soft metal (e.g. aluminium), for making a few prototypes only?
  • Is it a single cavity mold (requiring more machine time and more labor)? Or multi cavity (more expensive, but more efficient for large production runs)?
  • There are other considerations, of course, but these are just 2 examples of things to specify. See a list of design mistakes and a list of common defects to have an idea of what can go wrong…
And another reason is the business approach of the supplier. What game do they want to play? I listed the main 3 options:
  1. You let the supplier make the mold at their cost, the mold is theirs. They include it in the price of the finished product, but you don’t know by how much. This is more expensive in the long run, and you have no control over the supplier (they own the molds you need for your production).
  2. The supplier partially subsidizes the mold, the mold is theirs, and again they plan to amortize over time in the price of the plastic parts. This is also expensive in the long run, and you also have no control over the supplier.
  3. You pay the full price of the mold, you have a contract (enforceable in China) that says all the tooling is yours and you can get it back, and then you can use the forces of competition to keep the injection molding job affordable over the long term. This is also the safest option when it comes to IP protection.
If you plan to make small production runs and you don’t mind if your competitors get access to the same mold, then all the best if a Chinese manufacturer is ready to subsidize it!
In, on the other hand, you plan to make relatively large series of that plastic part, and if you want to keep control over who uses the tooling, go for option 3.
There are a few things most buyers don’t think of.
First, you need to have an agreement with the supplier that they maintain the mold. They should not store it in a dusty or humid place. They should re-make it if they damage it. And so forth.
Second, what happens when the tooling gets to the end of its useful life?
There are two options:
  1. Let’s say your order volume is very high. Supplier might accept to make new tooling for free in order to continue production, without raising the unit cost of the plastic parts.
  2. Supplier makes the new tooling in order to continue production, and the full price is paid by the customer (same as option 3 as outlined above).
Overall, in the long run, investing to own and control the tooling is usually the cheapest proposition. One notable exception is the prototyping stage, where having a supplier make cheap tooling on their own can make good sense.

Investing in an Injection Mold: What Is Best Practice in China?

BY RENAUD ANJORAN
Many importers are puzzled. They ask quotations for a plastic part, and Chinese suppliers quote wildly different amounts for the injection mold.
One reason, obviously, is the nature of the mold:
  • Is it in hard metal (e.g. H13 steel), ready to make hundreds of thousands of pieces? Or in soft metal (e.g. aluminium), for making a few prototypes only?
  • Is it a single cavity mold (requiring more machine time and more labor)? Or multi cavity (more expensive, but more efficient for large production runs)?
  • There are other considerations, of course, but these are just 2 examples of things to specify. See a list of design mistakes and a list of common defects to have an idea of what can go wrong…
And another reason is the business approach of the supplier. What game do they want to play? I listed the main 3 options:
  1. You let the supplier make the mold at their cost, the mold is theirs. They include it in the price of the finished product, but you don’t know by how much. This is more expensive in the long run, and you have no control over the supplier (they own the molds you need for your production).
  2. The supplier partially subsidizes the mold, the mold is theirs, and again they plan to amortize over time in the price of the plastic parts. This is also expensive in the long run, and you also have no control over the supplier.
  3. You pay the full price of the mold, you have a contract (enforceable in China) that says all the tooling is yours and you can get it back, and then you can use the forces of competition to keep the injection molding job affordable over the long term. This is also the safest option when it comes to IP protection.
If you plan to make small production runs and you don’t mind if your competitors get access to the same mold, then all the best if a Chinese manufacturer is ready to subsidize it!
In, on the other hand, you plan to make relatively large series of that plastic part, and if you want to keep control over who uses the tooling, go for option 3.

Selecting a Contract Manufacturer (CM) for Your Electronic Product in China

BY RENAUD ANJORAN
In China, there are a few entirely different breeds of manufacturers you can work with. One of them in the contract manufacturer (CM).
Working with a CM makes sense when you purchase relatively high volumes (e.g. more than 10,000 pieces a year for electronic products). You will get the best results in cost and quality with a CM.
In OEM, ODM, Contract Manufacturers: Choose your China Supplier Wisely, we listed the pros and cons of working with a contract manufacturer:
Pros:
  • The buyer is expected to own the design and to pay (and own) the tooling.
  • The buyer can sometimes negotiate for visibility over the supply chain, which reduces many of the risks.
  • Better control of the situation as a whole – cost, quality, and timing.
  • Change from one CM to another is a relatively standard process.
  • The CM generally accepts a certain amount of manufacturing-related liability.
Cons:
  • There is more R&D work.
  • Time to market is usually longer.
  • The testing and validation plan should be defined from scratch and adjusted over time.
However, there are different breeds of contract manufacturers. Not all will be a good fit for your company.
Here are the key questions you need to answer before starting to look for a good CM.

1. What quantity are you planning to order in the first year? In the second and third year?

A large CM would not both with a customer that orders small quantities. They typically have a relatively heavy onboarding program a new customer, including setting up the production & testing processes, confirming what standard they agree with, and so on.
Some of them, who really, really don’t want quality issues in mass production, will insist on re-starting the New Product Introduction process nearly from scratch (from the design reviews). That’s not something they can justify for a business volume of 100,000 USD a year…
Another issue is, they are much more interested in continuous production (dedicated lines that are setup once and then keep running) than in start-and-stop jobs.
A smaller CM is a better fit if you are starting from a low position and you can’t confirm to order many thousands of pieces a month in the near future.

2. Do you need production in a high-volume, low product mix setup?

If you want just 1 or 2 SKUs to be made in the tends or hundreds of thousands of pieces, most CMs will be very excited to get your business. And then it becomes a game of cost control and transparency (see next point).
If, on the other hand, you have a variety of SKUs to manufacture in relatively low quantity, the challenge will be finding a factory that is optimized for flexibility.

3. Do you expect transparency on the component suppliers?

Some buyers want a ‘turnkey solution’ and have no interest in the details. Other buyers want more control over their supply chain and require visibility all the way through.
For example, Ikea knows what forests many of the wood materials going into their furniture come from, and they use that information to guarantee a level of sustainability but also to drive improvements in their supply chain. This is an extreme example, but at the very least do you want to know who supplies the main components going into your product?
Not all Chinese suppliers can accept to be transparent. Have this discussion early on.

4. Is protection of your intellectual property extremely important?

If the answer is yes, you can’t take the risk of working with a potential competitor.
Some importers discovered, to their horror, that their ambitious ‘manufacturing partners’ had decided to expand into more profitable activities and had started selling directly on their market… and were making good use of what they had learned (design, production process, software, and so forth).
This is more likely with a Chinese-owned CM than an American-owned CM, and with any hard-driving and reckless business owner in general.

5. Do you expect the CM to help you with product development? With compliance?

You will need to look at their engineering capabilities. The more you can rely on their internal resources, the cheaper your new product development will be.
When it comes to compliance, look at their past experience making similar products for your market. Ask questions to test their understanding of legal requirements and how to address them. They might have been selling a similar widget to the US, but their American customer might have been handling that process from A to Z!

6. CM capability (plastic parts, metal parts, PCBA… or just assembly)

What processes do they have in-house? The more a typical CM does in-house, the more control they have over timing and quality… and the better results.
However, it is usually cheaper when the assembly plant buys parts from smaller factories that are focused on just one type of process. Expect higher prices if you purchase from a vertically-integrated plant. It doesn’t necessarily make sense conceptually, but that’s what have observed again and again in China.
If they buy some critical components from outside, see if they already buy the same components (same grade, etc.) for their other customers. Pooling all their purchasing power gives the CM more power to negotiate quality, timing, and other key terms with their suppliers.

7. QC capability and testing equipment

You will need to look at their internal testing laboratory (if any). Do they have the right equipment? Does it all seem to be in good condition? Can they speak intelligently about the key tests, their roles, past failures they caught, and their reaction plan?
Also, ask about the transparency of their internal QC activities to their customers (in 99% of cases, there is no automatic transparency). Observe the way they work, guess the speed at which issues would typically be caught, and look for evidence of quick feedback to the production process (or the sub-supplier) at the origin of the issue.

8. Test jig developments

Do they have elaborate in0line testing equipment? Do they do it themselves, was it all designed by a sophisticated customer, or is it subcontracted to a specialized firm?

9. What level of liability do you expect from your CM?

In China, the default approach is ‘once it has been shipped out and full payment has been wired, supplier bears no responsibility”. And, in many cases, Chinese CMs think and behave this way. Is this what you want?
What if you have to recall an entire batch of products because of battery problems? Who will absorb that cost?
What if a customer takes your company to court because of a manufacturing problem. Who will be responsible for this in the end? What if they infringe on your intellectual property?
In other words can the CM accept to sign a contract that would be typical in the West? Or will they cling to what they consider is ‘standard’ in China?

10. What payment terms can they offer?

One great approach to hold the CM responsible is to delay all, or a portion of, the payments. If issues happen, chargebacks are simply deducted from the balance payment.
It can be very hard to negotiate. The company that does assembly usually has to pay for components and materials long before shipment. But 30 to 60 days net payment after delivery will help your business immensely. You can scale it up much faster with the same amount of working capital.
To increases your chances of getting this type of deal, you will probably need to demonstrate strong financial backing, as well as a strong position on your market. And you need to be good at ‘selling’ your project and getting CMs excited.

11. Delivery terms

Again, do you want to go with the usual FOB terms that are so common in China? It makes sense for the buyer to control shipment and have visibility over the entire inventory.
If you can really trust your CM, they can ship to you in DDU or DDP terms (all the way to your warehouse). It is more convenient for the buyer.
I hope this list is useful if you are looking for a contract manufacturer. There are some very good options in China, and not only for electronic products.
Large CMs are not the best fit if your orders are not very large. It can be difficult to find a smaller CM since they are less well-known and have less marketing punch, but it is not impossible.
