As is well known, regardless of the type of mining machinery and equipment, the market or development in the past two years has been far inferior to earlier years. Perhaps this is why people are extremely concerned about the future development of mining machinery and equipment. In fact, aside from other complex factors, the future development of mining machinery and equipment is still promising. Mining machinery is also developing in the following directions:
1. Large scale
China has entered the ranks of a major producer, consumer, and importer of mining machinery, but it is large but not strong. Based on the current situation in the mining machinery industry, Chinese mining machinery enterprises should further deepen reforms, actively adjust industrial and product structures, transform economic growth methods, enhance independent innovation capabilities, accelerate the research and development of high-end mining machinery, beneficiation equipment, crusher equipment, and key components, and open up new markets. They should also improve product quality and enhance service awareness, advance the overall competitiveness of the industry, and adhere to the path of green innovation in order to achieve sustainable development at a good and fast pace, and achieve the goal of transforming from large to strong.
2. Digitalization
With the advancement of computer skills, unmanned mining techniques have been promoted, moving from traditional automated or remote mining processes to intelligent mining, digital communication, and other unmanned mining directions. Digitization has depicted a new vision for mines, excavating and integrating enterprise information resources, completing the reengineering of open-pit mining industrial processes, completing geological environment modeling of mineral deposits, formulation and implementation of production plans, production scheduling, product quality monitoring, equipment condition diagnosis, personnel allocation, material flow, capital flow, as well as the construction and integration of subsystems such as engineering disaster warning, local environment monitoring, expert evaluation and decision-making plans under special working conditions, making the entire enterprise a sound and circulating management system.
3. Intelligentization
Automated unmanned mining face is the development direction of underground or hazardous environment mining, and it is also an effective way to ensure safe mining face. Inductively applying mining science, automation skills, communication skills, computer science and skills, etc., to conduct fundamental theoretical research and develop new skills and equipment for automated unmanned face excavation, so that mining machinery will develop towards mechanization and intelligence. The structural health of mining machinery directly affects the safety production of mines and the life safety of miners. The self detection and self diagnosis system of mining machinery structure adopts an intelligent structure integrating sensors, controllers, and actuators, endowing certain intelligent functions and life characteristics such as self diagnosis of structural health, environmental adaptation, and self repair of damage, aiming to enhance structural safety, reduce mass, lower energy consumption, and improve performance. This is the direction for online monitoring of major mining machinery products in the future.
4. Ecological transformation
Mining machinery is a major consumer of resources and a source of pollution. To achieve harmonious development towards the natural environment, it is required that mining machinery be "ecological" and continuously innovate in production forms, resources, processes, and organization through various advanced skills, so that products do not produce environmental pollution or minimize environmental pollution throughout their entire life cycle, with the highest resource utilization rate and the lowest energy consumption, ultimately achieving the harmony of enterprise economic and social benefits. Efficient and zero pollution fuel cell mining machinery has great development prospects.
5. Internationalization
The product development of global product development enterprises in the mechanical manufacturing industry is not confined to closed doors, but is aimed at open public channels and social resources. The demand for economic construction also promotes the development of mining machinery. The mining machinery manufacturing industry has gone through the development path of introducing, digesting and absorbing advanced foreign skills, collaborative planning and production, and independent planning. At the same time, there is a certain gap compared to developed countries in terms of primitive development and engineering of new industries, new equipment, and new skills.
In fact, based on the above five development trends, we do not need to worry about the future of mining machinery and equipment. Even if the external economic development declines, trust in the development of mining machinery and equipment is still promising.
