When comparing all terrain cranes with crawler cranes, there are two different voices from the industry. Liu Munan, Assistant to the President of Sany Group and Vice President of Sany Crane Research Institute, believes that all terrain cranes will dominate. Compared to crawler cranes, all terrain cranes have strong concentration. It has lower requirements for the width and slope of the road. With the mature application of Sany's ultra large power core product technology and the serialization of Sany's large tonnage cranes, I believe that in the field of lifting in the next few years, the homework efficiency of all terrain cranes and the upper hand in road site requirements will be more significant
Sany Heavy Industry, as a leading enterprise in excavator manufacturing, performed commendably in 2011. The annual sales of excavators reached 20614 units, with a market share of 12.3%, 0.3 percentage points higher than Komatsu, ranking first in the industry. The general manager of Sany Heavy Machinery Marketing Company, Xiang Ruan, is full of determination and belief in local excavators: in 2011, the market share of domestic brand hydraulic excavators was close to 40%, and local brands were able to achieve such performance, indicating that domestic brand technology has been comprehensively promoted and has been recognized by the market. This year, it is expected that the market share of local excavator brands will reach over 50%. Therefore, he said, "Sany needs to compete globally with the best excavator manufacturers in the world. This premise and opportunity are ripe, and we have full confidence and strength to showcase the charm of Chinese manufacturing on a global scale
Finding Growth Points
Despite this, Qi Jun, the President of the China Construction Machinery Industry Association, expressed an optimistic stance on the industry at the "2011 China Construction Machinery Annual Product TOP50" award ceremony on March 27th: "Although there are no significant signs of improvement in the market at present, it is generally judged that the driving force of national economic growth will remain strong in the future period, and China's construction machinery industry will still face valuable development opportunities
Another industry survey showed that customers' enthusiasm for purchasing construction machinery products was not high in February, and there was a significant wait-and-see sentiment. Department customers adopted short-term leasing or purchasing second mobile phones to supplement their equipment. This phenomenon indicates that customers are not optimistic about the engineering prospect and gradually value the investment return rate of the project, which to some extent affects the sales of new machines. In addition, based on the repayment situation of customers in January and February, it is the worst in recent years, with many customers unable to repay and the phenomenon of delayed repayment is very common.
Regarding this situation, Yu Ju, Deputy Secretary General of the China Construction Machinery Industry Association, stated in an interview with China Industry Daily that the production and sales volume of the construction machinery industry in January and February last year was very high, and the year-on-year decrease this year is also relative to last year's data. Some large enterprises in the industry are still operating well in some products this year.
In addition, statistics from the China Construction Machinery Industry Association further show that in January, the sales of excavators, loaders, bulldozers, and rollers decreased by 53.1%, 49.8%, 66.6%, and 53.3% year-on-year, respectively. The month on month data showed a decrease of 38.5%, 64.3%, 18.7%, and 35.0%, respectively
