Railway locomotive spare parts manufacturing industry refers to the manufacture of special spare parts for railway or tram locomotives and their towed vehicles. Including bogie, axle, wheel, brake, coupler, steel structure, body and connecting channel, etc.

In 2007, there were 251 enterprises above the scale in China's railway locomotive and vehicle parts manufacturing industry. The total output value of the industry has reached 21.261 billion yuan, accounting for 0.29% of the total output value of the whole machinery industry. The output value of new products reached 1.677 billion yuan, up 29.2 percent year-on-year. Industrial sales reached 21.239 billion yuan, up 39.75% year on year. The value of **** reached 733 million yuan, the same as in 2006.

Enterprises engaged in the manufacture of railway rolling stock accessories mainly include railway enterprises engaged in the manufacture of railway accessories during the period of planned economy and private enterprises and foreign-funded enterprises developed after the implementation of market economy. The distribution of railway spare parts manufacturing enterprises is mainly dominated by the traditional 21 railway spare parts factories, which radiate outward from the location of each railway bureau.

Since launched in 2005, the railway leap-forward development, China railway construction investment appeared substantial growth, in 2006, the railway infrastructure investment and is used for the purchase of rolling stock than five years ago appear doubled growth, by 2007, the annual national railway fixed asset investment (including capital construction, renovation and rolling stock purchase) reached 252.07 billion yuan. China will launch long-term large-scale railway construction investment in the next few years. The main sign of high growth of railway investment is the large-scale construction of passenger dedicated lines, which will inevitably be accompanied by the prosperity of railway transport equipment industry.

In the annual purchase of railway vehicles, in addition to the new mileage brings new vehicle demand, also includes a large part of vehicle replacement demand. In the backdrop of the railway speed and overloading, in order to achieve the 200 or 300 km per hour or 75 tons of overloading goal, must equipment can meet the needs of high-speed overload, safe and reliable and high quality rail accessories, it will directly to speed up the demand for high technical content of vehicle accessories, is a new generation of products and technologies will have very big development space.

Speed up the transformation of vehicles first drive vehicle parts demand. In order to meet the requirement of raising the speed of vehicles, the ministry of railways began to renovate the existing 300,000 vehicles in 2005, involving parts such as the bolster, wheel, axle and bearing. The demand growth of some parts is in short supply. The railway vehicle parts manufacturing enterprises have entered the period of high performance growth from 2005 to 2007. In general, the important spare parts enterprises benefit from the railway vehicles to speed up the transformation, the earliest boom peak; The advent of the boom peak of railway high-power locomotive and high-end passenger car enterprises is relatively lagging behind.

This report according to the national bureau of statistics, the general administration of customs and other national government agencies and the association of machinery industry federation and industry group, in 2007 China's railway rolling stock and the emu manufacturing industry production, sales, market condition, industry structure, products, and import and export situation and so on has made the detailed analysis, at the same time reference for the development trend of related industries, to the future of China railway rolling stock and the emu on the prediction of the development of manufacturing industry.
