Current Situation of Valve Industry - 2013-06-21 14:49:16
A further look at the valve industry, we can see that the America has a dominating position in the whole valve manufacturing industry, with Japan and Germany following closely. The production power of valve in China ranks fourth while England takes the fifth place, with France, South Korea, Italy, and China Taiwan following respectively. The soft seated butterfly valve market now is in very fierce competition. Since the generic valve products are easy to be manufactured and in enormous demand, the competition among these generic valves is even much fiercer. The valve industry is not concentrated in any countries, thus it has no monopoly of products. In recent years, the import and export of valve products in East and South Asia is on great rise and the valve market in the developed countries in European Economic Community is stable. The export amount of valve in Germany, Italy, Japan, or China is greatly expanded. In countries of the USA, France and England, the import of valves is in great amount and has formed the main source to boom the international valve market. Besides, due to the further internationalization of the world economy, the cross-national companies of valves and increasing number of gate valve manufacturer or suppliers of otherDouble Eccentric Butterfly Valve may even constantly promote the development of the international valve industry. The valve market may develop towards the trend of localization of international trade in valve. With the rapid development of technology for manufacturing large scale set of valves, now there are various types of whole set of equipment available. The equipment used in the production of valves is featured by large scale, high level of parameterization, high performance of automation. Meanwhile, the automatic level of the international equipment has been greatly enhanced, In the petroleum or chemical industry, most of the production process has been controlled digitally or even realize hierarchical control by computer. With the enhancement of various whole set of equipment, craftsmanship, performance of equipment, now valves of even more types can be made. In the past few years, the valve industry has even more new types of valve products, such as emergency cut-off valve, quick snap switch valve, fire resisting valve, anti-static valve, pressure and temperature reducing valve, butterfly-typed check valve, decompression valve, vacuum jacket valve, safety sluice valve, safety check valve and Single Eccentric Butterfly Valve. The valve industry has witnessed very fast development in the recent years. But, for even better development, the valve manufacturers still need to make even more efforts.
