Polarized big metal glasses mold industry ice fire two days

Metal glasses molds are simple and easy to process, low in technology, once the business "hot", with the increase in the degree of mechanization of glasses, is accelerating to a recession; the contrary, plastic glasses mold due to the popularity of automatic winding machine, began to heat up the glasses industry The eyeglass mould industry, which is an important part of the chain, nowadays has a phenomenon of “polarization”. Plastic glasses molds are increasingly favored, while metal glasses molds are almost retired from the market, and the entire industry is beginning to decline. Industry experts said that due to the unique technology and low technical content, coupled with the long-term competitive state of the metal glasses mold processing enterprises, the survival is increasingly difficult. Only by integrating industry resources, improving technological content, and accelerating the transformation of enterprises can the mold industry develop healthily.

Winding machine "breaking" metal mold Beijing a glasses company's technical staff told reporters that metal glasses mold is a cold mold, also known as simple bending mold, the process is only one-tenth of the plastic mold. As the metal glasses mold is simple and easy to process, the technology is low, and the capital requirement is small, it can easily be replaced by similar products. In recent years, the emergence of automatic winding machines has accelerated the decline of the metal eyewear mold industry. Therefore, the metal glasses mold is eliminated by the market is a necessity.

According to an industry insider of the Wenzhou metal eyeglass mold industry, a few years ago, the metal eyeglass mold industry business is still doing well, and even the word “hot” can be used to describe it. On the one hand, there are many glasses factory, and metal glasses mold factory is not a lot, so the mold must be queuing, but also to pay the deposit; the Other hand, the industry is more standardized, and mostly cash transactions, so the mold profit space is relatively large. It is precisely because of this that some of the earlier metal glasses mold companies earned a lot of money and quickly grew up. Wenzhou Metal Eyeglass Mould Factory has developed from a workshop-style small factory into a modern enterprise with more than 6,000 square meters of factory buildings.

However, over time, the past glory of the metal glasses mold industry has disappeared. One of the eyewear industry's masters said that nowadays there are almost no molds to open the optical frames, and only some of the sun's eyes are difficult, such as the curvature of 800 to 1000, the winding can not get around, in addition there are some small plants To open the mold, the metal glasses mold factory has little business to do. It turned out that they had to work overtime day and night, but only one or two machines are currently running at the start of the work, and the others are idle.

In the end who grabbed the rice glasses mold rice bowl? At present, many people generally believe that the most fundamental reason for the decline of metal eyeglasses die is the popularity of automatic winding machines in the eyewear industry. According to reports, in the production process of metal glasses, as long as the ring wire directly into the glasses automatically winding machine, through the computer numerical control, so that the coil around the wire, pressure and reach a certain degree of curvature, and then by spot welding connection molding. This automatic winding method is very straightforward, and it can be proofed and produced without having to open the mold. Therefore, it is generally welcomed by the eyewear industry.

According to reports, many years ago, domestic companies imported glasses automatic rewinding machines from South Korea and Japan. However, at that time, the purchase of a machine cost hundreds of thousands of yuan, so only a few big companies with strong financial strength could afford to purchase. However, in recent years, with the continuous improvement of the degree of mechanization of glasses, the domestic automatic rewinding machine has become very popular in the eyewear industry, and this kind of domestic automatic rewinding machine has also approached the “civilian price”. According to research, the cheapest, as long as more than 70,000 yuan. Therefore, it is precisely because the price is very favorable, the introduction of automatic winding machine has become a major trend in the optical industry.

According to a survey conducted by a domestic eyewear industry chamber of commerce, the current domestic eyewear industry, with the exception of some home-plant-style small factories, most of the mirror-finished companies that produce metal frames have purchased fully automatic winding machines. Therefore, it is an indisputable fact that the automatic wire winding machine replaces the metal glasses mold.

Polarization urged enterprises to transform Although the metal glasses mold industry was almost devastated, but in a sense, the entire optical industry has been developed, the overall level of technology has gradually improved. However, an indisputable fact is that the metal eyeglass mold industry has no more days to go. On the one hand, plastic glasses molds are booming in the market, while the other is the bleak business of the metal mold industry. Experts suggest that qualified companies can go to some places where automatic winding machines are not yet popular. However, in the long run, they are completely sacrificed. The industry may have a real way out.

People in the industry believe that there are many ways to get out of business difficulties. Abandoning low-value-added, low-margin products and turning to more profitable product production is a very effective method. Wenzhou Xinfeng Eyeglass Mould Factory has developed a new process of going up and down the goggles through technical research. The process can be proofed without opening the mold, not only to solve the traditional process of slow opening, low output, long service life and many other shortcomings, save the processing cost of the majority of online and offline line goggle processing households, but also has a molding and no deformation, Durable and many other features. According to statistics, some companies go online and offline goggles production share accounted for more than 60% of the number of metal frame orders.

After experiencing the development of the metal glasses mold industry from the boom to the decline, the existence of the risk can not be ignored. According to industry experts, the entire industry is relatively decentralized and it is difficult to form large-scale production with capital and technological advantages. The situation of disorderly competition prevails. The shortage of professional and technical talents and the lack of innovative capacity have also hampered the development of the entire glasses mold industry. Even on the off-line goggle processing industry, there are obvious risks. The popularity of online and offline goggles has given rise to a lot of semi-finished products processing industries. On-line goggle processing itself is technically more difficult, but the industry's entry threshold is low. The processing technology of semi-finished products of goggles frames is relatively single, and it is a highly dependent industry. Enterprises are engaged in clothing for others. Once a mirror company has mastered the processing technology, it will process itself, and the semi-finished products processing industry will face “weaning. "And the popularity of the goggles on and off the line is not stable. Once the trend is over, it will be thrown into the "old paper pile."
