As the cornerstone of modern industry, manufacturing industry is one of the important factors that distinguish the development level of various countries and regions. Manufacturing includes a wide variety of materials, energy, equipment, tools, capital, technology and manpower are among them, it can be said that our clothing, food, housing and transportation are inseparable from manufacturing. In recent years, scientific and technological breakthroughs in important fields such as energy, materials, chemicals and information technology are further promoting a new round of changes in the manufacturing industry.

According to data released recently by the light industry network, from January to October this year, the added value of China's manufacturing industry increased by 5.8% year-on-year, and the added value of industries above designated size increased by 5.6% year-on-year. In the top 500 manufacturing list and analysis report, the total revenue of China's top 500 manufacturing enterprises has been close to 35 trillion yuan, an increase of 9.67% over the previous year, and the growth rate of net profit remains high. This shows that under the constraints of Sino-US economic and trade frictions and other external environments, China's manufacturing industry is still growing steadily.

On the whole, the innovation capacity of China's manufacturing industry has been continuously enhanced, the innovation system has been continuously improved, and the industrial base capacity has been gradually strengthened. The integration of manufacturing industry and other modern industries has led to the rapid development of China's service-oriented manufacturing industry such as electronic information and construction machinery. At the same time, a variety of emerging industries continue to emerge, and the output of new products such as 3D printing equipment, intelligent robots, smart watches, charging piles, and urban rail vehicles has maintained rapid growth.

Although the overall situation tends to be upward, the overall profitability of some of these large-scale enterprises is not high, even far below the average level of the global 500 companies. With the development of artificial intelligence, 5G technology, biochemistry and other technologies, new industries, formats and models are also emerging, and the industrial competition pattern is surging. For the manufacturing industry in flux, reform and innovation are also the general trend.

Scientific instruments as a relatively high-end category in the manufacturing industry, although the proportion is not large, but for the development of the manufacturing industry has a very important guiding significance, the successful development and breakthrough of important instruments often bring about a huge leap in manufacturing. Moreover, in the modern economic society, the needs and uses of scientific instruments have involved all aspects of human life, and have more extensive uses than ever before. However, with the continuous development of the industry, many problems to be solved have gradually emerged, such as high import dependence, weak innovation ability, unreasonable industrial structure and a series of problems such as lack of brand, hindering the rapid development of China's instrument manufacturing industry. Under the new economic situation, China's instrument manufacturing industry wants to occupy a place in the international field, then the direction change from large to strong, from many to excellent is also inevitable.

Our country is in a period of rapid development, economic society and scientific and technological development for scientific instruments are more urgent. Scientific and technological innovation is the prerequisite for promoting the high-quality development of manufacturing industry, and strengthening the technological innovation of enterprises can continuously enhance the innovation ability of China's manufacturing industry. With the demand of the market, various scientific instruments have jumped out of the scope of scientific experiments, and the integration of public life is more and more extensive, and it continues to develop in the direction of field application and automatic detection, miniaturization, networking and intelligence have become the development direction of scientific instruments that cannot be ignored.

Instrument manufacturing enterprises should seize the opportunity, increase research and development efforts, and actively expand the market, so as to change the status quo of imported scientific instruments leading the market, and continue to work hard for the development and progress of domestic manufacturing industry.
