The mold industry has always been known as the mother of industry. In recent years, it has benefited from the rapid development of downstream industries such as automobiles, electronics, and home appliances. It has made great progress. According to statistics from the National Mold Industry Association, the output value of the mold industry has increased from 16 billion yuan in 2004 to Nearly 200 billion yuan in 2014, maintaining an annual growth rate of 30%. However, for a long time in the past, my country die steel, especially high-end die steel, relied heavily on developed countries such as Europe and Japan, and required large amounts of imports every year.

In recent years, as my country major die steel mills continue to improve their production processes and improve R&D capabilities, the quality of my country’s die steel has been greatly improved, and many steel grades have reached or even exceeded imported steel. Moreover, domestic steel has the incomparable advantages of imported steel. The delivery time is short, and the price is only 1/3 to 1/4 of that of imported steel. With the continuous recognition of the market and the steady improvement of the quality of domestic mold steel, domestic mold steel gradually It will eventually replace imports completely.
