2009, the adoption of some reduction in purchase tax, Auto Rural areas, trade-in and the economy as a whole other level of encouragement and incentives, the Chinese automobile industry has experienced a wave from the trough to the peak of the magnificent new style continued to rise throughout the year to complete more than 13.6 million vehicle sales. By contrast, vehicle Engine Industry has also completed more than 13 million units and sales of the historical record.

According to statistics, as investment and consumer benefits brought about by the stimulus model emphasis on family car, mini-vans and medium-sized truck, the engine of the market growth in 2009 came from small displacement engines power more .

Policy performance continued to reflect On the vehicle engine, the 1 December 2009, included in the statistical range of 56 motor vehicle companies, total production of engines 13,154,800 units, the cumulative Sell Engine 13,011,500 units, respectively, compared with the same period in 2008, up 47.08%, and 43.85%, the growth rate and overall vehicle production and sales growth similar.

Look on the total production in 2009, production output of more than double by 2006 even more, revealing a significant start consumer demand. However, the cumulative total on the Gap of the second half of 2009 reached the highest in recent years?? The second half of the cumulative production over the first half of nearly 2.02 million units, sales were up nearly 1.78 million gap between the sets, so that the total amount of the second half of the cumulative production and marketing more than 13% of the difference. In addition, the second half of the month up to 6 months of sales are within the engine for more than 1 million units, fully explain the policy stimulus has continued to embody.

From another set of data observations to the number of statistics for 2009 kW engine output and sales volume growth rates of 40.21 percent year on year and 36.52%, respectively, according to the data, the number of statistical units lower 6.87 percent rate and 7.33 percentage points from the market and further illustrates the structure of growth from small displacement engines power more than a large displacement engine.

Specific point of view, at the end of 2009, a total of 56 vehicle engine companies, Chongqing Changan, FAW – Volkswagen, Guangxi Yuchai, Liuzhou Wuling Liu machine, SAIC-GM-Wuling, Beijing Hyundai, Chery, Harbin Dongan Auto Engine, FAW Group, Shanghai GM Powertrain, Dongfeng Nissan, Anhui, all wood, Dongfeng Honda Engine, Guangzhou Automobile and Toyota engines Harbin Dongan Auto Engine, the highest total production of the top 15 ranking.

Difference is that in 2008, due to the overall benefit of small cars, Chongqing Changan replaced over the years, Alliance Chief Guangxi Yuchai engine market, from last year’s third discharged to the first one, and benefiting the other car ranking has improved business. From the total production reached 5 million over the first 45 enterprises (more than 2008 the number of four) can be seen that output more than 100,000 the number of Taiwan enterprises have 38 (more than seven over the previous year home), the annual output of more than 20 million enterprises with 24 (more than the previous year 5), the annual output of more than 30 million enterprises with 20 (compared with more than eight the previous year), annual production of 400 000 11 Taiwan enterprises (more than last year 7). Guangxi Yuchai, following the first two years alone more than annual production of 500,000 units, the 2009 total of seven businesses annual output of this stage station; Chongqing Changan Zeyi 850,000 units of the high yield market in 2009, become the leader of the Executive. Production concentration, the total production of the top 5 companies in the production of concentration 25.34%, this value decreased over the previous year, 0.20 percentage points, compared to 48.60% in 2004 fell by 23.26 percentage points more; the top 12 companies concentration of production was 50.12 percent, compared with 0.87 percentage point decline the previous year. Simple terms, by 2009, five companies of the production scale up to a quarter of the entire industry, the top 12 enterprises producing half the size of the entire industry.

Some people may be under the impression that almost all of the precision engineering that goes on in the UK is located in the Midlands or the North of England. However, these people may be missing a great opportunity, by not considering Norfolk as an alternative region for precision engineering services.

It is true that the Midlands and the North of England were once the backbone of the engineering sector in this country. These areas had traditionally been extremely biased towards manufacturing, to the extent where a huge percentage of the local workforce in these areas would be employed in this sector. Large engineering factories were widespread in these parts of the country, and therefore most of the country’s engineering focus was centred around them. However, in the last 20 or 30 years all this has changed, and there are various reasons for this. The decline in the industry as a whole, and the changes to working practices that this has brought, has hit large companies hardest. With such a concentration of companies in one or two areas, and with so many engineers moving out of engineering and into other sectors, customers have been forced to look elsewhere for their precision engineering.

One area which has benefited from this is East Anglia, and Norfolk in particular. No longer just a rural area which was entirely devoted to farming, Norfolk has developed into a thriving engineering base. The Oil and Gas industry is very involved in Norfolk, and other sectors such as meat and crop processing, automotive engineering and the chemical industry play a large part in the Norfolk economy. All of these sectors are very heavily biased towards engineering, and require very high levels of precision. This has led to a situation where there are some excellent precision engineering companies in Norfolk, with very highly skilled engineers.

One such company is Machined Precision Components Ltd, based in Watton in Norfolk, who can list a number of customers in these sectors who are locally based. They can also boast customers all over the country who have a requirement for their precision engineering services.

As director Nick Overton explains: “We provide a highly professional service to many sectors of precision engineering, not only in Norfolk, but throughout the country. We place great emphasis on three areas: Firstly we produce a top quality component, we provide it for a competitive price, and we do this with very short lead times.”

In fact their lead times are so short that they sometimes can provide a next day delivery to customers for items which may be produced at very short notice. “We can often receive an order on one day, produce the components on the same day, and then deliver it to the customer the next day” explains Mr Overton. “We can do this for any customer within the UK, wherever they are based, and with no compromise in quality. This flexibility means that we can provide a quality service to customers that they may not be able to find elsewhere”

Precision Engineering in Norfolk continues to go from strength to strength, and sometimes this area of the country can provide a quality of service that cannot be found elsewhere.
