China's instrumentation industry is developing rapidly. At present, it has formed a variety of product categories, the industry scale continues to grow, and the industrial system of production and development capabilities is growing. The increase in production and sales is also triumphant, but there are still some sufferings hidden in it. The following describes the development constraints of the instrumentation industry. According to statistics from relevant departments, China has become the second largest instrument and meter producer in Asia except Japan in 2006. After years of rapid development, China's instrumentation industry has formed a rich product category, and the production and development capabilities of the industrial system are becoming increasingly large, and the growth of production and sales is also triumphant, but it still hides various difficulties. At present, China is experiencing an important historical stage of transforming the industrial structure through technological innovation and upgrading the national economy from all aspects. Measuring with instruments is a means for people to obtain information from nature. At present, most of China's advanced instruments and meters rely on imports, but the most advanced instruments and meters in foreign countries are generally developed in the laboratory and cannot be purchased in the market. China's first-class scientific and technological innovation activities cannot rely solely on imported instruments and meters, and it is necessary to carry out the development of the most advanced instrumentation activities from now on. After years of efforts, we will provide the most advanced domestic instruments and meters for our scientific and technological personnel. The scale and quality of enterprises restrict the development of the industry In 2011, there were 5521 enterprises above designated size, with 927,000 employees and total assets of 450.7 billion yuan. The total industrial output value was 525.3 billion yuan, the sales income was 511.6 billion yuan, and the total profit was 38.7 billion yuan. The comprehensive strength of Chinese enterprises has been significantly improved. However, there are still uneven situations. The quality of the enterprise restricts the development of the industry. The impact of GDP is still serious. Although instrumentation has achieved high development in recent years, it is largely affected by “GDP”. The unhealthy model of pursuing the speed of enterprise development, ignoring product technology innovation and product quality, has many unhealthy factors in the development of the industry. Instrument control technology is an important position for developed countries to maintain their advantages. Another characteristic of the instrumentation industry is that the import and export deficit is relatively large, which is the largest deficit among the 13 industries in the machinery industry. During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, China’s exports of instrument-controlled products maintained an annual growth rate of around 30%, with an interim period of more than 10 billion U.S. dollars, and a final period of more than 15 billion U.S. dollars; the annual growth rate of instrument-controlled products imports is expected to be about 20%, the end of the 11th Five-Year Plan. Imported instrument control products exceed $20 billion. However, China's key instrumentation equipment still lags behind developed countries.
