1、 The scale of the global electroplating market continues to expand, and the number of electroplating enterprises above designated size in China is increasing year by year

According to the Research Report on Market Forecast and Strategic Consultation of China's Electroplating Industry (2021), the global electroplating market has increased from US $12 billion in 2011 to US $15.6 billion in 2018, with a compound annual growth rate of 3.9%, mainly driven by the strong expansion of the communications industry and the increasing demand for electronic devices. In 2019, the global electroplating market scale was 17.1 billion US dollars, and in 2020, the global epidemic caused the market scale to decline to 13.8 billion US dollars. In recent years, the number of enterprises above designated size in China's electroplating industry has increased year by year. As of 2018, the number of enterprises above designated size in the industry has reached 172, up 7 from the end of 2017.

2、 Electroplating processing area shows an increasing trend

Electroplating is one of the basic processes in the manufacturing industry. Electroplating industry is an indispensable part of the modern industrial system. Electroplating is indispensable for everything from a screw to automobiles, aircraft and ships. Due to the unique technical and economic advantages of chemical processing, it is not only difficult to be canceled or replaced, but also there are new breakthroughs in electronics, steel and other fields. In 2016, China's electroplating processing volume was 1.127 billion square meters, with a year-on-year growth of 6.5%; In 2017, China's electroplating processing volume was 1.238 billion square meters, up 9.8% year on year; In 2018, China's electroplating processing volume was 1.32 billion square meters, with a year-on-year growth of 6.6%; In 2019, China's electroplating processing volume was 1.412 billion square meters, with a year-on-year growth of 7.0%.

3、 Under the policy support, the construction of electroplating industrial park has become a hot topic

At present, electroplating industry has become one of the largest pollution sources in China, but the long-term mechanism for electroplating pollution control has not been established. Build electroplating cluster area, comprehensively adjust the layout of electroplating industry, guide electroplating enterprises to conduct centralized production and centralized treatment, implement cleaner production, improve enterprise management level, and take the road of intensive operation, which will help the electroplating industry to scale up, upgrade, achieve scale cluster effect, and promote sustainable economic development. Therefore, the construction of electroplating parks has become a hot topic in recent years. The following is the development overview of the parks in China in recent years: the income contributed by companies in the electroplating industrial parks has increased from 50.3 billion yuan in 2013 to 174.7 billion yuan in 2018, with a compound annual growth rate of 28.3%. The proportion of the income of the electroplating industry in the parks in the entire electroplating industry has also increased from 21.4% to 49.5% in 2018. Under this good operation situation, the market scale of electroplating industry in the electroplating park will reach 353.8 billion yuan in 2023, with a proportion of 72.4%. At the same time, the number of electroplating parks in China has increased from 92 in 2013 to 132 in 2018, and is expected to reach 161 in 2023.

Keywords: cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, high-end environmental protection

With the development of automobile, electronics, aerospace, communications, military industry and other industries, and the improvement of automation, electroplating technology has been more and more widely used in these industries, and increasingly closely linked with high-end technology industries and products. As far as manufacturing industry is concerned, many advanced equipment and manufacturing methods are gradually transferred to China, and the supporting electroplating industry must adapt to the development of modern manufacturing industry. The development of advanced manufacturing industry will certainly promote the development of advanced electroplating industry. Therefore, electroplating industry has broad application prospects, and there is great room for future output value and profit improvement.

The development trend of China's electroplating industry is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1、 Pollution prevention

The increasingly stringent requirements for the emission limits of electroplating pollution in China reflect the current huge environmental pressure. This new situation urges electroplating enterprises to actively plan funds to transform production equipment and increase pollution control facilities in response to new emission standards in combination with their own conditions.

2、 Product upgrade

Electroplating enterprises continuously improve and improve the level of production process and technical equipment, and gradually realize the goal of using computer controlled automatic electroplating production line to produce, so as to meet the development requirements of high-end products.

3、 Cost reduction and efficiency increase

High cost and low production efficiency are common problems in electroplating enterprises in various regions. Due to disorderly competition, low prices to solicit orders, poor economic benefits and other problems, enterprises do not have enough funds to improve environmental protection facilities and control pollutants. Therefore, we must adjust the industrial structure, eliminate a number of electroplating plants with serious pollution, and promote enterprises to improve management efficiency, implement cleaner production, and reduce costs and consumption.

4、 Equipment upgrade

Automation, intelligence and computerization of electroplating equipment will help to improve work efficiency, improve working conditions, reduce pollution and improve the quality of electroplating products. The automation, intelligence and computerization of electroplating equipment will become more and more popular in China's electroplating industry.

1、 Fully digitalized electroplating industry

Electroplating is a continuous production process, and digitalization is the only way to modernize the industry. The importance of big data for electroplating process control is self-evident. In electroplating production, digital application can save manpower expenditure, improve management efficiency, record data of each process in real time, and replace meter reading and post checking of employees. Big data also controls various indicators more accurately than manual work, and improves product quality effectively.

2、 Nanotechnology brings new processes and new coatings

More and more people in the industry have begun to pay attention to the application of nanotechnology in electroplating and coating. When the diameter of material particles drops to the nanometer level, the number of atoms on the particle surface will increase, and it is unsaturated, easy to combine with other atoms to stabilize, showing great activity. Nanotechnology may create new electroplating additives or electroplating intermediates, which may effectively improve the quality of cyanide free processes, and make new progress in cyanide free processes that are more difficult to significantly reduce the cyanide pollution in electroplating.

The rise of China's manufacturing industry requires a large number of enterprising Chinese enterprises to strive for it! Aidisheng electroplating will surely become the preferred supplier of global functional electroplating (gold silver tin)!
