The high-altitude work vehicle industry in China has the following industry characteristics

The high-altitude work vehicle industry in China has the following industry characteristics:

(1) Multiple varieties and small batches. Due to the product demand involving industries such as streetlights, landscaping, power, petrochemicals, and communication, the product uses are different, and there are significant differences in requirements for product specifications, technical parameters, and other indicators. Industry products have characteristics such as strong specificity, prominent personalized requirements, multiple varieties and specifications, and small market segments. The production batch size of each specification product is relatively small.

(2) The product has the characteristics of high technical requirements and high added value. The high-altitude work vehicle product involves technology in various fields such as automobiles, machinery, electrical, computer, automation, etc. It is a typical technology intensive product, and customers have high requirements for product safety and handling. Enterprises must have strong research and development capabilities to meet customer requirements. At the same time, customized products, especially those with high operating heights and special needs in the power industry, usually have high single unit value and high added value.

(3) Suitable for the development of specialized small and medium-sized enterprises. The high-altitude work vehicle industry has the characteristics of small industry scale, multiple product varieties, strong specificity, high technical content, high safety requirements, and obvious differentiation needs. Usually, it can only be customized, and single specification products are difficult to achieve mass production, suitable for the development of specialized small and medium-sized enterprises. Large enterprises cannot invest corresponding technical research and development resources, market development resources, and management energy as the leading industry, The industry characteristics restrict the entry of large enterprises. For example, large enterprises such as XCMG Group and Zoomlion Heavy Industries in China also entered the high-altitude work vehicle industry in the mid-1990s and early this century. After years of operation, Zoomlion Heavy Industries only announced five products in 2013, with an annual sales volume of around 20 units. XCMG Group's annual sales volume was only around 20 units. In the international field of high-altitude work vehicles, the top 10 production enterprises are all specialized production enterprises of high-altitude work vehicles and related specialized vehicles.
