Key Research and Analysis of China's Mechanical Development

According to the current industry situation, we will continue to encourage enterprises to obtain high-tech technologies through joint ventures, cooperation, and license transfers, but we must prevent foreign capital from using joint ventures to swallow up domestic enterprises. We will formulate relevant policies to encourage enterprises to increase investment in technological and product development, focusing on supporting the independent research and development of high-efficiency and energy-saving plastic injection molding machines, lightweight plastic product technologies and equipment, and high-efficiency and low-pollution plastic recycling technologies and equipment. We will encourage enterprises to apply for enterprise technology centers at all levels, cooperate with scientific research units to establish plastic machinery research and development institutions, and actively utilize government innovation funds to improve the independent development and innovation capabilities of domestic enterprises.
