High end of pharmaceutical packaging machinery has become a trend, but still faces challenges

Pharmaceutical packaging machinery has a great impact on the quality and safety of drugs. In recent years, with the rapid development of China's pharmaceutical industry, it has brought good opportunities to the pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry, but at the same time, the requirements of drug quality are constantly improving, and the pharmaceutical packaging equipment is also facing higher requirements. It is generally believed in the industry that high-end pharmaceutical packaging machinery has become a trend.

China's pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry has become a high-end trend

At present, according to the development status of China's pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry, the industry has formed an industrial system with complete categories, large scale and certain technical level. There are a large number of domestic pharmaceutical packaging machinery manufacturers, the equipment automation level and international competitiveness have been improved, and the technical level and market share of some packaging equipment are relatively high.

With the rapid development of the domestic pharmaceutical industry, as well as the continuous improvement of drug production requirements, the traditional pharmaceutical packaging equipment has been unable to meet the needs of the industry. In this context, the traditional backward packaging equipment is gradually "abandoned" by pharmaceutical enterprises, while the demand for high-end pharmaceutical packaging machinery with high automation and intelligent level is growing.

Some analysts pointed out that with the continuous upgrading and structural adjustment of China's pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry, the high-end of China's pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry has become a trend. "The main goal of the future development of pharmaceutical packaging machinery and equipment manufacturing industry will be high-end products and accelerated integration."

Challenges

Although the high-end direction of pharmaceutical packaging machinery has been placed in front of pharmaceutical machinery people, but from the current situation of domestic pharmaceutical equipment machinery high-end market, it is still facing many challenges.

Lack of innovation ability. Due to the low threshold of the industry and the lack of standardized management, some packaging equipment products in the market still have many problems, such as low-end quality, even fake and inferior quality. In addition, there is a serious shortage of high-end equipment in the domestic pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry, which is mainly due to the existence of the concept of "heavy manufacturing, light design" in the industry for a long time, resulting in the low innovation ability of the industry and the low level of repetitive production. In this regard, the author believes that the supervision and management of the industry should be strengthened, which is conducive to further standardizing the market development. At the same time, it also needs the enterprises themselves to speed up the change of the concept of "heavy manufacturing, light design", so as to improve the independent innovation ability of enterprises, promote product upgrading, and move from low-end to high-end.

The external competitiveness is weak. The domestic pharmaceutical packaging machinery is mainly concentrated in the low-end market with low level and low price, while the high-end pharmaceutical packaging machinery, especially the complete set of large-scale production packaging line, mainly depends on imports. Compared with the technical level of international imported equipment, the competitiveness gap of domestic pharmaceutical packaging machinery is obvious.

Analysis shows that pharmaceutical packaging machinery is a technology intensive industry, and it is very important to have core technology and high-level R & D team. However, the current situation of the industry is that there are obvious bottlenecks in technology and talents, which has become a "roadblock" hindering the high-end development of the industry.

In the future, the core of the competition in high-end pharmaceutical packaging machinery industry is the competition of key technologies. In this context, domestic equipment enterprises need to increase R & D efforts, strengthen the development capacity of key core parts, develop high-tech and value-added pharmaceutical packaging machinery products, and improve the international competitiveness of products.
