Machinery Manufacturing Industry

Machinery manufacturing is a traditional advantage field for steel application, covering multiple sub-industries such as engineering machinery, agricultural machinery, shipbuilding, and aerospace. Engineering machinery such as excavators, cranes, bulldozers and other equipment have huge demands for high-strength and wear-resistant steel, especially as engineering machinery develops towards large-scale and intelligent development, which has more stringent requirements on steel performance. The shipbuilding industry uses a large amount of marine engineering steel, including ship plates, steel sections, etc. With the development of the marine economy and the requirements of green shipping, the demand for high-performance marine engineering steel and corrosion-resistant steel continues to grow. Although the amount used in the aerospace field is relatively small, the technical content requirements for steel are extremely high, which has promoted the technological progress of special steels such as ultra-high strength steel and high-temperature resistant steel. The development of precision machinery and high-end equipment manufacturing has driven the market demand for precision steel and special steel grades.
