"If the industrial economy is compared to a dragon, the instrumentation industry is the 'eye of the dragon'." After the stage of rapid growth, the domestic instrumentation industry should emphasize precipitation and accumulation in the future, and improve innovation capabilities around product accuracy and reliability."

The reporter learned that China's instrumentation has initially formed a relatively complete product category, with a certain scale of production and development capabilities of the industrial system, has become the Asia-Pacific region in addition to Japan's second largest instrumentation producer. In 2019, there were 4948 enterprises in the domestic instrumentation industry, with the main business income of 831.486 billion yuan, an increase of 6.52%.
