As an important part of my country's manufacturing industry, the instrument and meter manufacturing industry has played an important role in promoting the country's economic growth and social development. With the continuous development of social economy and technology, my country's instrumentation industry has been advancing all the way in recent years.

How much do you know about instrumentation!

Instruments and meters are appliances or equipment used to detect, measure, observe, and calculate various physical quantities, material components, and physical parameters. Vacuum leak detectors, pressure gauges, length gauges, microscopes, multipliers, etc. are all instruments and meters.

In detail, instruments and meters have functions such as automatic control, alarm, signal transmission and data processing. For example, pneumatic adjustment instruments and electric adjustment instruments used in automatic control of industrial production processes, as well as distributed instrument control systems, are also instrument meters. 

According to the "Classification of National Economic Industries" (GB/T4754-2017), the instrument manufacturing industry can be divided into general instrument manufacturing, special instrument manufacturing, clock and timing instrument manufacturing, optical instrument manufacturing, and weighing instrument manufacturing.

In addition, instrumentation can improve, expand or supplement human faculties. People use sense organs to see, hear, taste, and touch external things. Instrumentation is an important "tool" for the development of science and technology, and an important prerequisite and fundamental guarantee for the development of science and technology.

Any major leap in the history of human development is driven by huge innovations and fundamental changes based on tools. The development and innovation of scientific instrumentation as "tools" is often an important element that promotes technological innovation, and demand continues to grow.

The demand for instrumentation continues to grow

In the context of the rapid development of information technology, instrumentation has been widely used, which provides a good opportunity for the rapid development of the instrumentation industry. Instrumentation is the source and part of the information industry and an important foundation of information technology. After years of development, my country's instrumentation industry has already possessed a considerable industrial scale and entered a major country of instrumentation production.

Especially since entering the 21st century, the instrumentation industry has played more and more stars in promoting my country's development of strategic emerging industries, industrial transformation and upgrading, promoting modern national defense construction, guaranteeing and improving people's living standards, and the scale of the industry is also increasing.

Statistics show that in 2020, industrial enterprises above designated size nationwide will realize a total profit of 645.161 billion yuan, an increase of 4.1% over the previous year. Among them, the instrument and meter manufacturing industry above designated size achieved a total profit of 81.97 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.6%.

As of April 2021, my country's instrumentation industry above designated size has achieved a total profit of 21.810 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 50.30% and an increase of 52.31 percentage points from the previous year. The industry's profits are gradually picking up, and the demand is further expanding, which will usher in new development opportunities.

Instrumentation industry ushered in new development opportunities

Instrumentation has a wide range of applications, covering industry, agriculture, transportation, science and technology, environmental protection, national defense, culture, education and health, people's life and other aspects. It assumes the role of gatekeeper and instructor in the operation of all walks of life in the national economic construction. The level of instrument manufacturing reflects the country’s civilization and development, and is an important manifestation of the country’s technological level and comprehensive national strength. In the era of rapid development of information technology, demand continues to grow.

Therefore, with the continuous adjustment and upgrading of my country's industrial structure, the intelligentization of enterprises in traditional industries and manufacturing fields, the transformation and upgrading of automation, and the rapid development of emerging industries represented by the 5G industry, intelligent manufacturing, and the Internet of Things, the rapid development of my country's instrumentation industry Come a good development opportunity.

It is not difficult to see that the rapid development of emerging industries and the continuous improvement of people’sli
