EuroBLECH:
a top exhibition too far from Chinese metalforming users
As the No.1 exhibition focused on sheet
metal forming industry, EuroBLECH 2006 had 1409 high-quality
exhibitors, demonstrated the best equipment and technology
that covering the whole matelforming industry chain
and process.
It is a pity that many new products
and technology have never been shown in China, e.g.
many small household companies specialize in certain
fields for a long time, and their strong suit even the
big companies cannot compare with.
Due to the high cost and language barrier,
most of Chinese parts producers have no chances to visit
such a high class exhibition. So one of our targets
is to invite those companies, who want to seek their
fortune in China, to our international exhibition-MetalForm
China. Luckily, we got many responses from companies
of EU. The specialized fair will be the best platform
for foreigners to Chinese market and get wildly recognized
by Chinese users quickly.
First participation: connect the world
with China
After visiting the EuroBLECH 2004,
Mr. Qi Junhe, the Deputy Secretary General and Managing
Director of China Stamping Group, spared no effort to
promote the event to Chinese metalforming industry.
And this year he lead Simon Liu, the project manager
of MetalForm China Exhibition (Nov.20-22, 2007), to
exhibit at the show for the purpose of recruiting overseas
exhibitors, and got hot response.
Located at G31, Hall 16, decorated with bright colored
five star national flag, together with the up-and-down
Chinese delegates, CCMI''''s stand gained almost all
the passerby''''s eyeballs.
During the five days, about 300 specialists
found our booth in the guide of catalogue, preview,
and our invitation, and had a chat with us.
They have various of demands from China, e.g. some wanted
to set up branch or factories in China, some wanted
to purchase parts, machinery from China, some wanted
to seek for agency or copartners, and some wanted to
hunt for suitable employees etc.
However, most of them have a common
problem: there is no an expedite channel for the Chinese
and foreign businessmen. Yes, there are many many chances
in China, nevertheless, to know what the Chinese market
really is, how to enter it, how to do business in China,
how to find qualified partners etc still has a long
way to go. A lot of Chinese enterprises have no English
websites, their telephone operators are not able to
answer the phone with English, and they give no response
to English enquiries.
In fact, CCMI can help to cancel most
of such troubles. The Metalform China exhibition, a
specialized fair similar to EuroBLECH, offers the best
stage for those who serve the metalforming industry
to their end users, and those who want to buy parts
from Chinese market.
Meanwhile, the website of CCMI (www.chinaforge.org.cn)
offer both English and Chinese version to publicize
products information, supply and demand news, industry
news, enterprises databank, human resource bank and
so on.
We bet CCMI is the best bridge to connect
the world and China.
Industry report: To emit voice of Chinese
metalforming industry to the world
With the organizer''s request, Mr.Qi made a report on
The presents and development of Chinese Metalforming
industry. The report contained five sections:
1. Introduction to the present situation of Chinese
metalforming industry.
2. Data and its analysis of the major customers'' industries
of Chinese metalforming industry during from year 2001
to year 2005.
3. Data and its analysis of Chinese metalforming raw
material, die and equipment during from year 2001 to
year 2005.
4. Forecast of the future development trend of Chinese
metalforming industry
5. Introduction to CCMI and its services
Based on statistics of national statistics
bureau, related trade association and the customs, the
report contains a lot of tables and charts, which clearly
demonstrate the trend of the whole metalforming industry
in China. Besides the automobile, household appliance,
the motorcycle, bicycle, cell phone, PC, domestic made
metalforming equipment industry also gained a great
progress in the past 5 years, according to the report.
The report was highly commended by the audiences. After
the seminar, many audiences came to our stand for further
information and materials.
It is the first time that we made systemic
introduction of Chinese metalforming industry to the
world for the overseas investors'' reference, and we
will continue this work.
Plant visit: To update the current
equipment
The China Stamping Group, China Sheet
Metal Fabrication Group and China Container Group organized
a delegation with 15members visited the exhibition and
6 companies: LEIFELD Metal Spinning GmbH, AWS SCH?FER,
Schleifstein Maschinentechnik GmbH and one of its users,
one user of Mueller Weingarten AG - GEDIA, Gebrueder
Dingerkus GmbH, Boldrini.
The delegation got hot reception where they visited.
Compared with the past, Chinese visitors have the capacity
to buy more equipment from the developed industrial
country. Some members of the delegation have definite
requirements already, and discuss the details of purchase
during visit.
There are big gap in technology, equipment, management
and notion between Chinese companies and their counterparts
in developed countries. So CCMI will organize more parts
makers to visit some high class enterprises and exhibitions
such as MetalForm China to get more inspirations.
During the Tenth Five Plan period,
the output value of Chinese metalforming industry remarkably
increased by 20-30%, and is anticipated to increase
by 10-20% in the coming 5 years.
Considering the bright future of Chinese
metalforming industry and the brilliant situation of
the similar exhibition abroad, we believe that the future
of the metalforming in China will be much better, and
the MetalForm China exhibition will be the best platform
for the over 40,000 parts makers!
