Market Overview - China remains the largest producer and consumer of machine tools globally, with the industrial mother machine market size projected to grow from 631.36 billion yuan in 2019 to 712.89 billion yuan in 2024, and expected to exceed 800 billion yuan by 2029 [1]. Policy and Market Catalysts - A key policy document was released on September 1, 2023, aiming to transition the industry from "domestic production" to "high-end production," with goals to revise at least 300 standards by 2026 and achieve a 90% international standard conversion rate [2][3]. - The policy emphasizes a systematic approach, integrating standard development with major projects and addressing industry pain points, including mandatory requirements for carbon emissions accounting and energy efficiency [3]. Investment Logic - Three main investment logics are driving the industrial mother machine sector: 1. Domestic substitution potential, with current high-end CNC machine tool localization rates below 20%, expected to rise to 60% by 2030 [4]. 2. Breakthroughs in technology, with domestic companies achieving significant advancements in precision and smart manufacturing [5]. 3. Emerging demand from new industries such as electric vehicles and humanoid robots, which are creating new growth opportunities for precision machining equipment [5][6]. Future Trends - Key trends to watch include the integration of smart manufacturing with industrial mother machines, the demand for equipment upgrades due to new material processing, and opportunities for domestic equipment in global markets, particularly in Belt and Road Initiative regions [7][8]. - Specific focus areas for investment include high-end CNC machine manufacturers, core component suppliers, and specialized equipment manufacturers in the new energy and aerospace sectors [7][8].
