The power tool industry has been actively adopting advanced technologies to enhance its capabilities, drive China's rapid development, and foster international collaboration. In recent years, the sector has experienced significant growth, although it still lags behind foreign counterparts in certain areas. Luo Baihui emphasizes that technology plays a crucial role in the industry’s progress, as power tools are considered a high-tech field requiring continuous innovation and investment.
As part of the advanced manufacturing industry, power tools are widely used in sectors such as aerospace, high-speed rail, shipbuilding, automotive, construction, woodworking, and metal processing. These tools are essential for both large-scale industrial applications and everyday tasks.
The global power tool market can be categorized into three levels: technical, professional, and consumer-grade. Industrial-grade tools are designed for high-precision environments, such as aerospace, where strict technical standards and environmental regulations apply. These products offer higher profit margins but serve a smaller market. On the other hand, consumer-grade tools are typically used for home improvement or simple DIY projects, with lower technical complexity and profitability. China's leading manufacturers mainly focus on this segment, often competing through price rather than innovation, resulting in a crowded and disorganized market.
Professional-grade electric tools, however, stand out due to their superior performance, longer motor life, and ability to handle demanding tasks. They feature high speed, reliability, and advanced technology, making them ideal for commercial and industrial use. These tools have a broader market reach, higher barriers to entry, and stronger brand value compared to their consumer-grade counterparts.
Historically, China’s power tool market has been dominated by international giants like Bosch and Hitachi. However, in recent years, there has been a shift. Domestic brands, such as Richard, have gained significant traction, increasing their market share and challenging foreign competitors. Richard, now among the top four in the domestic market, has grown rapidly in just seven years and is steadily catching up with established brands like Bosch and Hitachi.
Currently, most domestic companies focus on producing consumer-level power tools, while only a few have developed professional-grade product lines. This has led to low industry concentration and a lack of strong market leaders. Looking ahead, the industry is expected to see more consolidation, with some domestic brands emerging as leaders. As a result, market shares between domestic and foreign brands will likely shift, with domestic options continuing to gain ground.
Richard, a listed company specializing in major tools, has the potential to play a key role in reshaping China’s power tool industry. By leveraging capital markets, the company can drive industry restructuring and promote new business models. To maintain its position and expand further, Luo Baihui suggests focusing on improving product quality, accelerating R&D for new tools, especially battery-powered and electronically controlled models, and continuously enhancing overall product performance.
Additionally, optimizing product structure and strengthening service capabilities will be essential. While the electric tool market looks promising, challenges remain, particularly in terms of domestic sales structure. Traditional high-speed tools and standard carbide bits still dominate, highlighting the need for innovation and diversification to meet evolving customer demands.
Single-Column Universal Tensile Testing Machine
The machine applies tension, compression, bending, and shear forces to test the strength, elasticity, and durability of various materials such as metals, plastics, textiles, rubber, ceramics, and composites. It can measure parameters such as tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, modulus of elasticity, and fracture toughness.
A typical UTM consists of a load frame, grips or fixtures to hold the specimen, a load cell or force transducer to measure the applied force, and a displacement transducer to measure the deformation or displacement of the specimen. The machine is controlled by a computer or a control unit that allows the user to set the testing parameters and record the test data.
