Aviation tooling refers to the special process equipment used for the molding of aircraft parts or the assembly of parts and sections, and the whole machine, which is divided into molding tooling and assembly tooling according to use; According to the material, it can be divided into metal tooling and composite tooling, metal tooling is mainly used for the molding of composite parts, while composite tooling is used for the molding of composite products with complex shape, large curvature change and difficult to demold. Aviation tooling design occupies an important position in the aircraft production process, and the level of tooling design directly affects the production cycle and product quality of aircraft products, representing the level of aircraft manufacturing of enterprises, and is also one of the key technologies of aircraft manufacturing.
Compared with traditional tooling manufacturing, digital tooling manufacturing can reduce manufacturing errors, improve production efficiency and product quality, and is widely used in the production and manufacturing of aviation tooling. The technical level of aviation tooling manufacturing is mainly reflected in the digital tooling manufacturing technology and composite tooling manufacturing technology.
The shape and structure of aviation tooling are complex, and most of them use high-tech composite materials, so the requirements for design and processing technology are very high. The industry has high technical barriers, so the profit margin is correspondingly higher. At the same time, the profit level of the industry is relatively stable. The customers of the aviation tooling industry are mainly aircraft manufacturers, usually customers will consider the price of raw materials, processing difficulty, processing risk, etc., combined with the average working hours of the industry to determine a reasonable purchase price range, to give enterprises in the industry stable profit margins. Therefore, the profit level of the industry is relatively stable.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the gradual establishment and development of the aviation industry, aviation tooling, as an important support for aircraft manufacturing, also began to take off. During this period, aviation tooling was mainly used to meet the production needs of military aviation equipment. In the early stage of the development of the aviation industry, the mainland mainly imitated and produced aviation technology and equipment from the Soviet Union and other countries. The design and manufacture of aviation tooling are also mostly based on the introduced technology and standards.
Since the reform and opening up, the continental aviation industry has made remarkable progress in technological innovation and independent research and development. As one of the key technologies in aircraft manufacturing, aviation tooling has also developed rapidly. With the deepening of opening up to the outside world, the continental aviation industry has begun to integrate with international standards, and has carried out cooperation and exchanges with many countries and regions in the field of aviation tooling, which has promoted the improvement of technical level.
As an important high-end equipment to support the development of the national aerospace industry and the country's military independence, aerospace technology equipment is of great significance to the national economy and national security. In order to support the development of the national aerospace industry, China has launched a number of policies and strategic plans, such as the Outline of the Strategic Plan for Expanding Domestic Demand (2022-2035), the Catalogue of Major Technical Equipment and Products Supported by the State (Revised in 2021), and the 2021 China's Aerospace Industry to encourage technological innovation and develop aerospace technology and related technologies. With the support and encouragement of policies, China's aerospace industry has developed in an all-round way, the degree of autonomy has continued to improve, and the aerospace process and equipment have gradually developed towards high-end, intelligent and diversified.
The market prospect of the continental aviation tooling industry is good, the market size has increased from 2.02 billion yuan in 2017 to 3.98 billion yuan in 2023, with the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous growth of demand, the aviation tooling industry is showing a trend of rapid development. In the future, the industry will pay more attention to technological innovation and industrial upgrading to meet the market demand for high-performance and environmentally friendly materials.
From the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, the upstream of the aviation tooling industry mainly includes metals and synthetic materials, composite materials and related production equipment, etc., and the downstream is mainly used in the aviation machine manufacturing industry. The quality of upstream raw materials directly affects the performance and quality of aviation tooling products. At the same time, the price fluctuations of raw materials directly affect the production cost of tooling products, which in turn affects the profitability of the aviation tooling industry. Changes in downstream market demand affect the production and sales of aviation tooling products, and directly affect the market size of the aviation tooling industry.
Relevant national policies have made it clear that the aviation industry is in a strategic position in the national economy, and a series of encouraging policies have been introduced for aviation parts and other industries. This will provide a continuously favorable policy environment for the development of the main business of aviation tooling enterprises.
At the planning level, the aviation industry has been included in the national overall plan of "Made in China 2025" as a high-end equipment manufacturing industry. The planning objectives clearly put forward: to speed up the development of large aircraft, start the development of wide-body passenger aircraft in a timely manner, and encourage international cooperation in the development of heavy-duty helicopters; promote the industrialization of trunk and regional aircraft, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles and general aircraft; Breakthroughs have been made in the technology of high thrust-to-weight ratio, advanced turboprop (shaft) engines and turbofan engines with large bypass ratios, and an independent engine development industrial system has been established. Develop advanced airborne equipment and systems to form an independent and complete aviation industry chain.
The traction of the planning goal will enable the continental aviation industry to usher in a good opportunity for rapid development. The continuous improvement of the fleet size will play a role in promoting the growth of the market scale of aviation tooling and other industries. At the same time, with the introduction of the low-altitude airspace opening policy, the future general aviation market will usher in a blowout, which will bring incremental markets to the business development of general aviation tooling enterprises.
The competitiveness of China's aviation tooling industry is becoming increasingly prominent in the global aviation manufacturing industry, and its advantages are not only rooted in profound technology accumulation, but also benefit from the vigorous market demand, the firm support of national policies and the strong strength of enterprises in the industry. Specifically, the continuous improvement of the technical level is the core of the competitiveness of the industry. China's aviation tooling enterprises have made significant progress in the fields of high-end material research and development, precision machining, digital design and manufacturing, and the application of these technologies has greatly shortened the aircraft production cycle, improved product quality, and laid a solid foundation for the rapid development of China's aviation industry.
At present, the participants in the continental aviation tooling industry include aircraft manufacturers, internal supporting enterprises, private enterprises and some foreign enterprises, the number of enterprises is small, and the enterprises mainly focus on fixed customers or fixed fields, and the intensity of industry competition is not high. The internal tooling supporting enterprises of aircraft manufacturers are currently the main participants in the domestic aviation tooling industry. However, due to the fact that the current main engine factory in the mainland usually undertakes the development and production tasks of many types of aircraft, and the tooling manufacturing requires a long production preparation cycle and a large amount of production land, which occupies more manpower and financial resources of the main engine factory, with the rapid increase in the number of models and output developed by the main engine factory, as well as the improvement of the specialization requirements of the aviation tooling industry, the tooling manufacturing alone through internal supporting enterprises can no longer meet the demand, which provides an opportunity for other external enterprises to enter the aviation tooling industry.
Domestic aviation tooling manufacturers mainly include Harbin Guanglian Airlines, Harbin Anyudi Aviation, Chengdu Lihang Technology, Chengdu Aileda Airlines, Xi'an Changxing Airlines, Xi'an Changlong Airlines, Jiangsu Maixinlin Airlines, Wuxi Hangya Technology and other enterprises.
Among them, Guanglian Aviation, as an aerospace supporting enterprise, has participated in a number of large-scale aircraft development projects approved by the state, and has accumulated rich experience in technology and processing. The company is mainly engaged in R&D and manufacturing of composite molding tooling and automated assembly tooling, and has established a standardized, standardized and scientific tooling processing system, with advanced processing and testing equipment, and has formed a technical team with rich experience in product and tooling development.
The Zhiyan consulting research team conducts in-depth analysis on the scale, industrial structure, key enterprises, and industrial development trends of China's aviation tooling industry, and puts forward suggestions on the problems existing in the development of the aviation tooling industry, so as to provide reference for local governments, industrial chain related enterprises, and investment institutions.
