Industry manufacturers to maintain its existing industry leadership, we must increase R & D investment, enhance independent innovation capability, has introduced new products, improve product lines and expand financing channels, by market capitalization and standardized operation, in order to ensure its competition in the market dominant position.
3, low value-added products, intense competition
Low value-added products, though they have a certain international market share, but little contribution to the development of the industry. Many enterprises have become the overseas market, "manufacturing center", earning low amount of manufacturing costs. In recent years, domestic labor costs coupled with rising medical equipment business operations costs continue to rise, which gives a lot of the survival and development of SMEs has posed a serious challenge. As the industry continues to specification, some small and medium enterprises are more medical devices it is at risk of being eliminated. In the international market, Chinese enterprises are already facing Chinese medical device manufacturing cost advantage gradually weaken or even disappear position; in the domestic market, low cost, low price is the result of intense market competition, the cost advantages of scale enterprises gradually be reflected, more many SMEs face survival and development.
4, lack of R & D capabilities, innovation capacity is weak
At present, most of the medical equipment manufacturing enterprises lack of technical innovation, research equipment and infrastructure poor conditions, inadequate investment in research and development, scientific and technological achievements into the capability is weak, in the high-end medical equipment, no technology and strength to go beyond multinational and domestic mainstream enterprise, can only take the road of imitation, the price war.
