According to Jianxun Zhu, “We can see that the pattern of the interna- tional foundry industry and casting market is still changing. If we want to gain a secure foothold in the changing international market, we must get a clear understanding of the new situation and keep up with the trend, adjust our developing strategies, and have a sense of self position. Only in this way can we do our good job in the international foundry market.”


dustry in these countries has a great potential for growth, and Shengquan predicts the growth rate will be more than 10% in the coming years.


How do you see the pattern of the global foundry industry changing?


JZ: Influenced by energy distribution, raw materials, labor cost, casting market demand, and industrial and technological development, a new three-part division of the international metalcasting industry is forming.


1. Mid- and High-End Position Occupied by developed countries like the U.S., Japan


and Europe, this segment has the advantages of the technology, equipment and funding necessary to hold a leading position in the industry. These countries have transferred the manufacturing of products with low add- ed value or manual production to developing countries, devoting more effort to the production and development of high-grade, precision, advanced castings.


通过以上分析我们可以看出，世界铸造业及铸件市场格局正在 发生不断变化，如果想要在瞬息万变的经济发展时代寻求发 展，我们就必须认清新形势、紧跟新发展，准确定位自身情况 并根据世界格局新变化不断调整发展战略，这样才能顺应产业 发展趋势，在世界铸造业发展的大舞台上绽放独有的光彩。


同时，相对有竞争优势的产品结构使铸件产量及出 口量都会有较大增长，逐渐成为替代成熟市场的“世 界工厂”和“产品基地”，预计未来铸件产量的增长 在5%以上。


3. 欠发达国家铸件产量增长潜能巨大


以印尼、越南、菲律宾、泰国、伊朗、哥伦比亚、阿 根廷、巴基斯坦、孟加拉等为代表的欠发达国家，因其 人口众多、政治稳定、经济发展条件成熟，必将通过发 展铸造业来推动本国汽车及机械制造业的发展，潜力巨 大，预计未来增长10%以上。


二、世界铸造业产业分工新格局


受世界能源分布、原材料、劳动力成本以及铸件市场 需求和工业技术水平等因素的影响，世界铸造业正在形 成新的产业分工格局。
