According to the naming method in the measures for the naming management of regional titles with characteristics in China's hardware industry (Revised Draft), there are three capital of China's hardware products, namely, China lock capital (Wenzhou), China valve capital (Yuhuan) and China Button capital (Qiaotou); There are 8 hardware industry bases in China, namely: China hardware industry base (Xiaolan), China (Shuikou) faucet production base, China stainless steel products production base (Xinhui), China (Wenzhou) metal shell lighter production base, China (Wenzhou) razor production base, China hardware products (Yuyao) production base, China export tools production base (Jinhua) China screen industry base (Anping); There are 3 Hardware towns in China, namely: zipper town in China (Qiaotou), hardware town in China (Yongkang) and hardware town in China (Daxin Town). According to Luo Baihui, CEO of die.com, it is found that there are the following main problems in China's hardware stamping parts industry:

1、 The degree of specialization is low, the scale is not formed, and the economic benefit is poor

Compared with the host machine, the enterprise needs relatively less investment in establishing initial capital and technology. After several periods of national economic development, a number of private production enterprises have sprung up, but they can not form an economic scale due to more market demand and small batch. Most hardware manufacturing enterprises themselves are large and complete or small and complete, with low degree of specialization, low level of equipment, unstable quality and low economic benefits. For example, the annual output of three large backbone enterprises in China's motor industry is less than 50% of that of a famous foreign company. In recent two years, thousands of stamping parts factories have been built in some areas of China, but only a few have an annual output of more than 300000 pieces, and the main products are supporting agricultural machinery. The annual output of Rexroth in Germany is 1.3 million pieces of various stamping products, and that of Youyan (Zhuzhou) in Japan is also more than 600000 pieces. The per capita output value of mold enterprises in industrial developed countries is about 150000 ~ 200000 US dollars, while that in China is only 40000 ~ 50000 yuan. Luo Baihui pointed out that in recent years, with the implementation of the common development policy of multiple ownership systems, the hardware industry is experiencing a process from decentralized to gradually intensive development.

2、 Insufficient capital investment and weak scientific research and development force

Hardware industries introduced a number of foreign advanced technologies in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but they lack sufficient investment in software and hardware for digestion and absorption. According to foreign experience, the ratio of capital required for the introduction of technology to digestion and absorption is about 1:7, while China's understanding of this is late and the pace of digestion and absorption is slow. Market competition is actually a contest of technical strength. Foreign countries attach great importance to this and have increased investment to occupy the commanding height of technology. The funds used by major famous companies for scientific research and development account for 4% ~ 5% of their sales and 10% in key areas. At present, although many colleges and universities in China are engaged in scientific research, and many theoretical research, scientific research achievements and patent papers are at a high level, they are not closely combined with production practice, especially the speed of transforming into commodities is slow.

3、 Backward raw materials and related technologies

Due to the poor quality and few varieties and specifications of domestic steel used in fasteners, chains, springs, bearings, molds and other products, the product quality of stamping parts is directly affected. Mechanical basic parts are generally produced in batches and in large quantities. There are also products with multiple varieties and high processing accuracy requirements. Therefore, there are high requirements for production technology and equipment and large investment. Foreign countries mostly use high-efficiency and high-precision special machines, production lines or flexible lines to realize efficient automatic production. However, some basic parts enterprises in China are subject to capital constraints, with little investment, poor self transformation ability, few advanced equipment and no supporting, which affect the quality and grade of products.
