Advanced textile equipment is very important to the high quality development of textile industry.

During the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the quality and quantity of spinning machine products have been improved from single machine to continuous, automatic, intelligent and intelligent production lines. Six intelligent production lines including spinning, polyester filament, knitting, printing and dyeing, non-woven fabric and garment sewing have been launched. At the same time, the application of new technologies such as 5G, AI, Internet Plus and big data in the design, production, marketing and logistics of the textile industry has not only promoted the transformation of production mode, but also promoted the high-quality development of the textile and spinning industry, making enterprises more dynamic and competitive.

The healthy development of the industry has also significantly improved China's textile machinery in the global market position and discourse power. In 2011, China imported 4.218 billion US dollars of textile machinery, while exported only 2.242 billion US dollars in the same period. At the end of the 13th Five-Year Plan, textile machinery exports began to exceed imports. In 2019, the export of Chinese textile machinery ranked first in the world. In 2021, the import of Chinese textile machinery was $3.636 billion, and the export value was $4.806 billion, an increase of 1.14 times compared with 2011.

At present, the rapid development of 5G, machine vision, cloud computing and other technologies will greatly affect and change the shape of the world's industrial development and the layout of the industrial chain, the same is true of the textile industry. At the same time, the national macro level, from the realization of the "double carbon" goal to the construction of the "double cycle" development pattern, will also have a profound impact on the development trend of the industry.

With the development of China's textile industry, the requirements for equipment at different levels, such as continuous, automatic, intelligent, intelligent, green and customized, are being upgraded. The development of textile industry in Southeast Asia and other countries will follow the intelligent development road of energy saving, emission reduction, reduction of staff and efficiency like China's textile industry. The main task of the textile industry is to keep innovating, to meet the transformation and upgrading needs of the textile industry with new technology, new products and new services. In terms of greening, energy saving and emission reduction, the spinning machine industry will shoulder its own social responsibilities, and at the same time open up a new development path for the textile industry. Scientific and technological innovation, intelligent manufacturing, green and energy saving are the key to breaking through weak areas and achieving high-quality development of the industry.

The report of the Party's 20th National Congress proposes that we should rely on the advantages of our super-large market, attract global resources with large domestic circulation, strengthen the linkage effect of resources in both domestic and international markets, and improve the quality and level of trade and investment cooperation. The textile industry is a superior industry in our country, and the overseas investment of textile enterprises is also an important link in international cycle. In terms of market expansion, Chinese spinning machines will also go overseas with textile enterprises.

We will strengthen tackling key problems and lead industrial upgrading

Question: The report to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposes to carry out projects to rebuild the industrial base and major projects to tackle key technologies and equipment, support the development of specialized and innovative enterprises, and promote the high-end, intelligent and green development of the manufacturing industry. What do you think the spinning industry can do in these aspects?

Gu Ping: The development of Chinese spinning industry has always been based on scientific and technological innovation. Since the 13th Five-Year Plan, the technical strength and product competitiveness of textile enterprises have been further improved, which plays an important demonstration and leading role in the technological progress of the industry. More than 140 provincial-level scientific and technological achievements appraisal of new products of domestic textile machinery have been conducted by China National Textile Machinery Association. Most of the newly developed equipment has reached the international advanced level, and some have reached the international leading level, realizing the industrial application.

The innovation of spinning machine is fruitful. The key technology and application of 1000-ton dry spray wet spinning high-strength/medium-die carbon fiber industrialization won the first prize of National Science and Technology Progress; A single reactor with an annual output of 15,000 tons of new solvent cellulose fiber complete equipment to achieve industrial application; The online intelligent inspection system for the appearance of chemical fiber packaging solves the world problem of automatic inspection for the appearance quality of chemical fiber packaging, which is the first in the world. Carpet yarn twisting machine has reached the international leading level, and won the second prize of national Science and technology progress; 150,000 tons of viscose staple fiber equipment to reach the international leading level; The cotton spinning and combing machine is the first in the world. High performance special weaving equipment to fill the gaps at home and abroad; The automatic computer flat knitting machine successfully replaced the import, broke the long-term monopoly of foreign countries, and won the second prize of National Science and Technology progress; Low-tension open-width knitting continuous boiling and bleaching machine to reach the international leading level; The ultra-high speed digital printing equipment broke through a number of key digital printing technology and won the second prize of national technology invention; High speed wide-width spunlaced nonwovens complete sets of equipment realize flexible design, can meet the requirements of flexible assembly line.
