For the current development situation that the industry investment drive is unsustainable and the market drive is obviously weakened, China Sewing Machinery Association pointed out at the forum of "seeking new power for industry development" organized recently that innovation is the strength for the domestic sewing industry to meet the challenges, and this innovation must come from the internal, that is, transformation and upgrading. Without transformation, it is difficult for enterprises to survive; without upgrading, the industry cannot develop.

Relevant information provided by China Sewing Machinery Association shows that in recent years, in order to cope with market changes and improve competitiveness, China's sewing machinery industry has achieved three times of innovative development. The first time started from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s, the whole industry has realized the transformation from household machine to industrial machine, the industrial scale and the number of enterprises are in blowout state; the second time started from the mid-1990s to the beginning of this century, the whole industry has realized the product upgrading from medium speed machine to high-speed machine, and high-speed machine has become the mainstream product in the market; the third time started from the mid-11th five year plan to the latest In the past two years, the whole industry has achieved a leap from mechanization to electronic control, and made major breakthroughs in application models and application levels.

According to the analysis of relevant principals of China Sewing Machinery Association, the driving force for the first three times of development of sewing machinery industry mainly comes from the outside, that is, through investment driven and market driven engines. This kind of development mode also brings the disadvantages of industry development, including extensive low efficiency and overcapacity. They still seriously affect and trouble the healthy development of the industry so far, so it is urgent to change and achieve breakthroughs. Changshu sewing equipment

However, how to use endogenous power as a new engine for future development requires the efforts of the whole industry. In this regard, some experts in the industry predict that in terms of product innovation, the next round of development orientation of sewing machine industry is intelligent construction with sewing unit as the driving point, which has reached consensus in the industry.

The first is to follow the market principle of survival of the fittest, through the integration of industry resources, optimization of factor combination, and gradually introduce a competition and cooperation mechanism with relatively reasonable division of labor and relatively perfect professional cooperation within the industry, so as to avoid the uneven development of good and bad and blind development. On this basis, a group of enterprises with distinctive products and level advantages will be formed to lead the healthy development of the industry with quality and efficiency.

Second, we should attach importance to the construction of the whole industrial chain and comprehensively enhance the core competitiveness. Intelligent sewing machine is a grand project across industries and disciplines. It is a comprehensive application of machine, electricity, sound, light, magnetism and other technologies. The depth and breadth of its industrial chain are beyond the scope of traditional manufacturing industry, which requires the whole industry to coordinate all kinds of social resources, especially attach great importance to supporting construction to ensure the synchronous and coordinated development of all links.

Third, strengthen basic research and original innovation. Because of the large gap with the world's advanced level, the product innovation of China's sewing machinery industry in the above three stages has the characteristics of imitation, and the space for self-improvement is relatively large. At present, although there is still a gap between China's sewing machinery technology level and the world's advanced level, there is limited space for us to learn from. In this case, it is the foundation to ensure the long-term vitality of the industry to attach importance to and strengthen the basic research and original innovation of relevant technologies in order to obtain the continuous development momentum.
