When will domestic testing instruments solve the worry of 'not being sold'

Nowadays, domestic scientific instruments are no worse than imported instruments in terms of price, quality and performance. However, laboratories and enterprises still choose to purchase imported instruments. When can the status quo of the mismatch between instrument development and application for a long time be changed?​​“In 2013, the import of experimental analytical instruments was 6.294 billion US dollars, the export was 1.456 billion US dollars, and the trade deficit was 4.838 billion US dollars. From 2009 to 2013, the deficit continued to increase.”held recently“Domestic Testing Equipment Verification and Comprehensive Evaluation Technical Service Promotion Conference”At the meeting, Ouyang Liang, director of the Exhibition and Communication Department of China Instrument Industry Association, spoke with a heavy tone. Scientific instruments are equivalent to“recessive”The military industry is a must for all countries. The innovation, manufacture and application level of scientific instruments all reflect a country's technological and industrial strength. However, how to speed up the rapid development of the domestic scientific instrument industry has always been a lingering pain in the industry. It is difficult to solve the embarrassment of domestic testing instruments“I have been to many laboratories and seen many high-end imported instruments lying idle. Before the Spring Festival, I went to a laboratory of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The instruments purchased in 2008 have been used no more than 30 times by the beginning of 2014. It is a pity that they are idle there.”Professor Xing Zhi from the Analysis Center of Tsinghua University said,“Imported instruments that cost hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars, are often not disassembled or moved in the laboratory, when the treasure is locked there.”Imported scientific instruments have long dominated the major market. Yu Hongjun, director of the Project Supervision Department of the Engineering Construction Service Center of the Ministry of Agriculture, once pointed out that among the agricultural product quality and safety supervision, inspection and testing institutions, the proportion of imported equipment from ministerial centers accounts for 90%, and the proportion of imported equipment from provincial centers accounts for 70%.—80%, even the county and regiment-level institutions have more than 50% imported equipment, some 300—For a project with a total investment of 4 million, more than 2 million was spent on the purchase of imported equipment and instruments, and the remaining money was spent on laboratory construction. The laboratory conditions can be imagined. For a long time, the bidding process of domestic instruments and meters has been controversial, and it has frequently occurred that county-level units purchase imported products at high prices, and products with a high degree of localization such as water purifiers and centrifuges have to purchase imported products. Some units even take pride in having imported instruments. Freezing three feet is not a day's cold. The bleak sales of the domestic instrument market stem from the long-term backwardness. But for three days, you should look at it with admiration. Today's domestic instruments are not what they used to be.​​“In the past ten years, the gap between domestic manufacturers and foreign products has narrowed. No matter in terms of price, quality, and performance, they are enhancing our confidence.”Ouyang Liang said.​​“Suzhou Sushi Instrument Co., Ltd. and Suzhou Dongling Vibration Experiment Instrument Co., Ltd. have developed a high-thrust electrodynamic vibration experimental system of more than 40 tons, which has made great contributions to the development of my country's launch vehicles, satellite launches, and manned spaceflight. The OPA-200 metal in-situ analyzer developed by Gangyan Nanoco is the world's first rapid analysis instrument that can quantitatively distribute the composition and state of metal materials in a large area.”When it comes to domestic instruments, Ouyang Liang is a treasure. However, on the one hand, imported instruments are purchased at high prices, but they are reluctant to use them; on the other hand, domestic instruments with high cost performance cannot be sold, and they cannot even be tested and verified. The embarrassing situation of domestic testing instruments has existed for quite a long time. Establish a third-party platform to provide authoritative evaluation“Researchers dare not waste their money and time.”Yuan Jinghe, an associate researcher at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, once said,“No matter how cheap you (domestic instruments) are, I don't have the time and energy to evaluate you.”The problems he reflected directly pointed to the long-term mismatch between instrument development and application. The sensitivity, accuracy and stability of a scientific instrument in actual work are all important issues for instrument purchasers. These figures also reflect the degree to which the instrument has been accepted by the market. For users, the lack of authoritative technical certification data is an important factor for not daring to buy domestic instruments and equipment. Many units prefer to buy imported instruments at high prices because they do not understand the scope of application of domestic instruments and equipment, are afraid of taking risks, and are afraid of immature technology.​​“In terms of R&D, design, manufacturing and sales, it is a work that domestic instrument manufacturers can complete independently. However, for verification work, as an important part of the promotion, application and use of instruments, instrument manufacturers cannot complete it independently.”Liu Yan, director of the Food Laboratory of the Technology Center of the Beijing Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, said,“It is based on this consideration that it is necessary to focus on the certification of various experimental parameters for domestically produced instruments on an objective, fair and authoritative domestic instrument verification platform, so as to provide powerful authoritative data for the promotion and application of domestically produced instruments and equipment, and to provide Users can provide fair and impartial reference data, and can also provide ideas for the performance improvement and upgrading of domestic testing equipment.”In 2009, the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission started the construction of the capital science and technology condition platform.
