The mold heat treatment industry in China

After 30 years of development, our country Guangdong area is finally formed today's complete market economy oriented pattern of specialized production heat treatment. Of course, now the Guangdong heat treatment industry in addition to produce mold and its accessories, also produce a large number of mechanical parts, hardware accessories, etc. But the mold heat treatment is still the main products of the industry, now still occupies more than 60% market share. At present, Guangdong heat treatment industry group has about 600 factories, most factories has mold processing business.

In mid and late 1980’s, the endeavor to reform and opening up of market economy are springing up in Guangdong area. Household electrical appliances, light industry machinery, metal products, furniture, and aluminum and stainless steel material manufacturing developed rapidly. Especially the Pearl R0iver Delta region, as the pioneer of reform and opening up, the market consciousness, exploring spirit, reform, and economic development and capital accumulation are changing with each passing day.

Due to the drive force of rapid development of the manufacturing industry chain, a considerable scale heat treatment
industry group was born at the right moment in Guangdong where is almost blank in before. And experienced social
production, mass production and until the specialized production process. While the start of Guangdong heat treatment industry, has connected with the development of die and mould industry. According to introducing, due to the manufacturing industry fast development, the mould demand is very big, thus different sizes of mould processing plants in the Pearl River Delta region dotted with soon.

But heat treatment as a key processing in mold manufacturing chain, in the 80's almost could not be found in the Pearl River Delta region, guangdong has no professional heat treatment factory. Large number of molds had to be sent to Guangzhou large enterprises and institutions of higher learning and scientific research institutes affiliated internal heat treatment factory for heat treatment. But doing so often have the "far water does not put out near fire" feeling, to the entrepreneurs who see "time is money, efficiency is life" at the forefront of reform and opening-up, there is no other better ways. It is in this background, firstly in the Pearl River Delta region began to initiate some private heat treatment factories engaged in the mold heat treatment. In these private heat treatment factories, some attached to the mold factory, some are professional factories providing services to featured products. Nanhai district, Foshan city, such as large-scale aluminum manufacturing industry "raises" a lot of heat treatment factories specialized production of aluminum extrusion die. Demand for MIM mould are also moving in Shenzhen area promoted Shenzhen mold industry and the development of heat treatment industry.
