Casting mold industry is a category of China industries. China Industry and Information Department proposed a development direction
of utilizing information to promote industrialization, and this is also applied
to the casting mold industry.
Up to July 2014,China’s
mould industry is increasing unremitting with average 15% per year, which is
far more than the growth of national GDP on average. Casting mould’s output
value accounts for 5% of all various mould and rises as high as 25% annually.
At present, more and more
mold manufacturers realize the importance of
information construction for improving competitiveness. In face of the
technology challenges brought by market, knowledge related to information construction is also
emphasized. From the part of microcosmic body, information networks system can
help casting mould enterprises timely obtain relevant information on user
requirements, market, technology, finance, rivals, talents, policies, laws,
etc.
At the same
time, information network technology develops the management scale of managers
from casting mold enterprises and decreases management hierarchy. It can assist
decision makers comprehensively and accurately master companies’ internal

realizing scientific decision-making and management.
Chinaautomobiles and motorcycles have entered into an accelerated growth period, which lead to
substantial increase of output for several years. Of all automobiles and
motorcycles, cars closely related to foundry industry grow faster than others.
This results in
increasing requirements on complex and precise casting
molds.
As a critical support of
foundry industry, casting mould industry is promising. Luo Baihui is the secretary-general
of ISTMA. He regarded that automobile industry will be the main impetus of
casting mould industry in future several years.
