Analysis on the Development Status of 1. Plastic Products Industry
Plastic products is the use of plastic as the main raw material processing from the life, industry and other supplies collectively. Including plastic as raw material injection molding, blister and other products of all processes. Plastic is a kind of plastic synthetic polymer materials.
With synthetic rubber and synthetic fibers, it forms three indispensable synthetic materials in daily life. Specifically, plastic is a natural or synthetic resin as the main component, adding various additives, under certain conditions such as temperature and pressure can be molded into a certain shape, at room temperature to maintain the shape of the material.
From the demand point of view, China's per capita plastic consumption compared with the world's developed countries there is still a big gap. As a measure of the level of development of a country's plastics industry indicators of plastic-steel ratio, China is only 30:70, less than the world average of 50:50, far less than the developed countries such as the United States 70:30 and Germany 63:37. In the future, with the technological progress and consumption upgrading of China's modified plastics, China's plastic products need to be expected to maintain a growth rate of more than 10%.
Plastic products are widely used, and the huge downstream industry provides strong support for the development of China's plastic products industry. With the introduction of the "revitalization of the petrochemical industry planning rules", China's plastic products industry ushered in new development opportunities.
From January to April 2018, China's plastic products output was 20.4455 million tons, up 2.32 percent year-on-year. In 2017, China's plastic products production was 75.1554 million tons, up 3.44 percent year on year.

With the construction of a new socialist countryside and the acceleration of urbanization, the increase in China's urbanization rate, the rapid growth in demand for a series of plastic products such as plastic pipes, special-shaped materials, artificial leather, synthetic leather, etc., and the improvement of technological innovation capabilities It will promote the development of the general plastics manufacturing industry, and technological innovation and institutional management innovation will greatly stimulate market vitality; the transformation of the state-owned shareholding system, the rise of the private economy, through the adjustment of new capital operation and resource allocation, the driving force for enterprise development will be formed; the role of domestic demand in the economic growth of plastics is increasing, which has added market space for the development of general plastics in China; the national decision on agricultural development will strengthen the urbanization process, Revitalize the northeast old industrial base, develop the western region and other strategies, and promote the plastics industry to shift with the strategy of the whole industry, in the future, it will gradually develop from the two delta regions to the central region, and at the same time realize the regional strategic transformation to promote the great development of general plastics. In 2017, the revenue scale of China's plastic products manufacturing market reached 2.44 trillion yuan. With the gradual maturity of the plastic industry and the improvement of the precision of plastic products, it is expected that the revenue scale of China's plastic products manufacturing market will reach 3.29 trillion yuan in 2023.

Future development direction of plastic products industry in 2.
Germany announced the concept of industrial 4.0, marking the arrival of the era of intelligent economy with intelligent manufacturing as the core. The future intelligent plastic products production plant should be: equipment intelligence, production intelligence, service intelligence. Equipment intelligence to achieve intelligent production, intelligent production to achieve production data, production data effective change service intelligence.
1. Requirements for injection molding equipment: In the future, intelligent injection molding machines can use the production system to set production requirements. Through radio frequency information chips and big data platforms, they can automatically identify and adjust/install conforming molds, automatically receive water and gas, automatically receive neutrons and other production requirements. All kinds of information and data are transmitted to the cloud platform of injection molding machines through networking. The injection molding cloud intelligently selects molds, automatically installs molds and intelligently adjusts processes according to big data analysis, intelligent arrangement of set raw materials to complete personalized, mass production, will also be able to cooperate with processing equipment, assembly equipment, packaging equipment, etc., to complete the overall product manufacturing, packaging, warehousing, transportation.
2, intelligent production: the customer demand in turn determines the production process, in order to complete the personalized production and small batch production, the use of raw materials and parts to run first and guide the completion of the entire production process. For example, there are 10 batches of production orders, each batch is customized by the customer. First, the customer customization requirements are directly input to the identification chip of raw materials and parts. The intelligent mixing system starts to identify the information and transmits the information to the central controller of the injection cloud in advance, it intelligently judges how to match raw materials, colors, stickers, inserts, select mold command mechanical arm and automatic feeding system to complete production, packaging and transportation to the exclusive warehouse for shipment.
3. Intelligent Services
1) Intelligent Active Service: In the future, injection molding machines and auxiliary equipment in intelligent factories will receive the production status and data of injection molding machines in factories through injection molding clouds in various places. Through data analysis, it is finally concluded that the machines need maintenance, overhaul and some parts need to be replaced, and accessories can be prepared in advance, thus turning passive service into intelligent active service to serve customers safely and safely;
2) Docking service between productivity and production demand: After the completion of intelligent production, the enterprise will be transformed into an intelligent factory. All equipment in the factory will be connected with data. The injection cloud can be used to let the factory decision makers know the production status from time to time, so as to judge the remaining production capacity of the injection molding machine and whether the surplus production capacity is needed to complete the production and manufacturing together. How to use excess production capacity to improve efficiency and reduce inputs? If a plastic manufacturing enterprise has 100 injection molding machines of different sizes, but there is surplus production capacity at a certain point in time, it can be sold through injection molding cloud. These companies with production demand and production capacity can be docked, which can enable production enterprises to effectively reduce costs and increase profits, while individuals or enterprises with production demand but no equipment have such cheap opportunities. In the end, each injection molding machine is used as a service provider through the injection molding cloud, bringing greater benefits to investors and allowing more entrepreneurs to easily enter the plastic manufacturing industry to realize their dreams.
